Ok, so I have a 9405 SLIM with the latest dash update so it is now a 0272
( MXIC chip )

So from what I understand it is locked and I have to do the Basic Russian Hack to unlock it

I have searched around & tryed to find a nice tutorial, but nothing...
Does anyone have anything on this?
I guess I need a 10ohm resister & a trace cut but im not seeing much info on all that...

Thanks

If its the Russian hack your looking to do, you can find a few pictures on how to do it on the JungleFlasher Tutorial 1.4.4 page 223 of 261.

I myself use a Sputnick probe from TX as its a little less work to do.

ok, so what R the basics on using the probe?

I tryd finding info on the start - finish & havent been able to...

only listing the steps to make sure im correct as it seams odd to slimkey to get the dummy and do all the normal liteon steps only to end up probing it & then reading and writing like a benq

So if I understand correctly this is what you do,
1) connect up the drive using X360USB Pro
2) slimKey to save the keys & dummy.bin
3) then unlock using sputnik
a) cut the trace
b) intro to get into vendor mode
c) click the Spi button on the botom right
d) probe the point until U hear the beeps
e) read, load fw, save file, write
f) Re-Lock the drive
g) outro

now at this point, do you re-solder the cut trace or leave it cut?
