Download ECU TWEAKER
You can download the Android application here :
- Added Spanish, Italian, French, Russian language
- Data logging
- Can settings (timeout)
- Added Deutch, Slovak and Turkish language
- WiFi support (Work in progress)
- KWP2000 auto identification
- Various fixes
- Fixed font size (no more DPI dependency)
- Remove a bug with Turkish language (cannot find ecu.zip file)
- Trunkate large floating numbers in widgets
- Added Catalan(Spain) Language
- Keep connection alive between activities
- Speed up
- Some ELM WiFi sometimes bug and send data that overflows the input buffer, to prevent this issue, the ELM is disconnected and reconnected (An overflow warning is logged in the log view). Nothing I can really do better so far.
- Added USB device (WIP)
- Added software flow control (disabled by default, no fully tested yet, use at your own risk)
- Removed some crashes
- Copy log file in «download» directory instead of showing it.
- Fix little endian ECU parameters reading
- Faster USB connection
- Removed license lock (no registration required)
If you want to unlock the application, consider making a donation (according to your possibilities). I don’t want to make money with it, but development process is time consuming and I need new hardware to test it correctly.
Install the APK with adb Android tool or directly on the phone.
You must install a zipped database on your device storage (internal or external). You can use the zip database feature of DDT4All to build it. There is no support for XML file right now. The database is JSON formatted and the zip archive file name must be ecu.zip You can place it anywhere you want on your device (external or internal) storage.
- On Android 9+, if you can’t connect to a WiFi ELM device, enable location service in your Android settings.
- Some WiFi ELM sometimes bug and overflows input buffer (not my fault)
Development is in beta stage. I tested a lot of functionalities, but be careful. The source code is not available.
You can connect with any good quality bluetooth ELM327 (with original PIC18F2480). Open the application, click the SELECT BLUETOOTH DEVICE button and choose your dongle from the list. Tested with a KW902 successfully.
Click the magnifier button and select vehicle type, then select an ECU type (ECM, AIRBAG, etc.) in the list. You can now manually select an ECU from the list or (better solution) click on AUTO IDENTIFY to let the application choose the best ECU file to use.
- Autorefresh by long-clicking refresh icon (to read live engine parameters for exemple)
- Read DTC by clicking heart button
- Clear DTC by clicking the wrench button
You can use it freely, but you’re limited to read operation (screens and DTC). You can’t do parameter change or DTC clear. Contact me to register and unlock these features with the request code. To know your request code, click on the padlock icon.

The ECU needs to be able to obtain an IP address from your router and have a connection to the Internet.
There are two methods to connect ECU to the broadband router including LAN and Wi-Fi connection.
LAN connection: use the LAN Cable to connect ECU to a Broadband Router.
Wi-Fi connection: use Wi-Fi Bridge to connect ECU to a Broadband Router
1: LAN Connection
Step 1: Plug the AC power cord into the AC input on the ECU, and then plug the other end into a standard AC electricity outlet.
WARNING : Do not plug any electrical devices and power strip into the same that the ECU is connected to.
WARNING : Do not plug the ECU into a power strip, surge protector, or uninterrupted power supply (UPS).
The surge suppression or filtering from these devices can substantially diminish PLC communication performance.
Step 2: Plug the Ethernet cable into the network port on the ECU, and plug the other end into a spare port on the broadband router or LAN.
2 : Wi-Fi Connection
Step 1: Plug the AC power cord into the AC input on the ECU, and then plug the other end into a standard AC electricity outlet.
WARNING : Do not plug any electrical devices and power strip into the same that the ECU is connected to.
WARNING : Do not plug the ECU into a power strip, surge protector, or uninterruptable power supply (UPS).
The surge suppression or filtering from these devices can substantially diminish PLC communication performance.
Step 2: Configure the Wi-Fi Bridge to connect to Wireless Router, please refer to Wi-Fi Bridge User Manual.
Step 3: Connect the LAN Cable and USB Cable on Wi-Fi Bridge to the network port and USB port on the ECU.
3 : Screen Display
As soon as the ECU is plugged into an AC outlet, it will power up and display several information screens. The ECU will be ready to work less than five minutes after powering up.
The ECU has completed booting up and has started normal operation when it displays the following information:
(1) Web connection information: “+Web”. This means the ECU is connected to the Internet. If it is “–Web”, Internet itself has problem. Need to setup the security authority to offer Auto IP configuration.
(2) The symbol “!” following the number 12 indicates that the number of micro-inverters connected to the ECU doesn’t match the number programmed into the ECU.
(3) The number of online micro-inverters producing power and reporting in to the ECU, for example: 12.
NOTE: GS500 counts as one inverter not two.
(4) Data of the life time output of the system in kWh, for example: 11kWh.
(5) Data of the present power‐production in watts, for example: 750W.
(6) Local IP address, for example: 192.168.2.101 (your actual local IP address will be different). The ECU will only search for an IP address during its power up sequence. If the IP address shows “60.190.131.228”, it means ECU failed to get IP address. Make sure the connection between ECU and Router is working well; reboot ECU and it will obtain IP address.
