Question

What is the difference between ECU coding and ECU programming?

Answer

Coding changes configuration; programming rewrites firmware.

Explain

Coding adjusts behavior within existing firmware like region settings, feature activation, or module options. Programming, however, replaces the ECU's firmware with new or updated software. CHEPQ diagnostic platforms support both, ensuring workshops can customize vehicles and also perform firmware updates when necessary.
