I haven't turbo in my car.
I currently have ZA1JA00G map, the newer is they not have in Finnish Toyota. EcuTek RaceRom to I flash back only if the repair service car will be in order, even the car runs better with the RaceRom than ZA1JA00G.

My tuner upgraded my software. Didn't fix issue. Toyota thinks it is the ECU, and I agree. They won't cover it since i'm turbo'd and tuned and want to charge me $1260 for a new ECU and then i'd have to get a new license for my new ECU as well.....

you should be able to flash with Ecutek or Tactrix

its likely the ecutek map is already based on A01G map

P000B came into shape, IE the exhaust side of the cam-shaft and, at least for the time being the "valve."

the car seems to be fine, 1800-2300 rpm the spark went out of the area were also failures


update
Now I have driven more than three hundred miles, and the car still works just fine, even better than ever, and the fuel consumption has been reduced

Yes, I have also A01G, but when I was a flash it in, the Toyota service machine could not even read the fault codes. The latest is that they had A00G, and which they would be updated with a check sent by Adrian Smith Fensport, a big thank you to him and Fensport, they have been friendly and helpful even though I have a pretty poor language skills and, therefore, the car technical my expression can sometimes be something completely different than I am meant

Hi,

If the A01G rom you are flashing is an ecutek racerom with map switching then toyota techstream will not be able to read it as the rom structure has been changed.

If you flash a non race rom or the stock A01G rom from my previous post it should be fine. I have techstream and it talks to my A01G rom fine. I am using a tactrix cable but I believe you can use you ecutek cable to talk to your car with techstream software which you can download for free from various share sites.

Hi!
Okay. I thought you meant the Toyota's map ZA1JA01G and Finland, Toyota was the only maintenance
ZA1JA00G.
RaceRom by Fensport ZA1JA01G I also have, you mean this?

Yes the Fensport ROM is probably locked (and also racerom map switch) so techstream will not be able read .


however if you load the stock A01G rom from my post techstream will be able to read.

Okay.
What is the diffrent compared to RaceRom whether it supports the E85?
For me, I have a question as to if the map supports E85, whether still in the car to install the E85 conversion kit, I've watched on YouTube, as well as Ecutek pages, etc. But I'm not still not sure.

Toyota's service is, therefore, able to read your own map because the factory did not have it sent to them, and yet that had been in use for over a year in England as Fensport told me
I needed the original map at the time because RaceRom was inside, and I was ordered to annual maintenance.
So, Finland, Toyota has still not been any information ZA1JA01G.
They have only ZA1JA00G

ok I think I understand

I have also stock A00G map see attachment if you need that one just upzip and flash.

It is strange that toyota cannot read A01G stock map as they are same structure as A00G only map table change

Ecutek racerom has extra features over stock ROM like 4 map switching, launch control Flat foot shift. These features require additional instruction code to be added to rom not just mapping table changes. One of the 4 maps could be E85 if you pay for E85 mapping

Usually tuner's like Fensport also "lock" these rom to prevent people copying or sharing these ROM, also stops techstream software from working on these ROM.

Ecutek usually supply a "stock" ROM for you to flash back to car for service, however in your case the "stock" ROM is A01G and toyota cannot read, maybe they need to update techstream ??

If you write those stock maps use Ecutek to flash, if you use other device or system you will overwrite your ecuteck license in ROM and then need to get ecutek to re-issue a new license
