Part 1:Why you need rework the PCB of MPPS V18 china clone?
Because there are two versions of Mpps china clone. One comes with missing components and different resistors are installed with red marks below.
(Source from mhh forum member@sonique ,big thanks)
Working mpps v18 clone should be like this:
So, some cheap MPPS china need rework.
For the mpps above:
D1 = PESD1CAN ESD protection
U4 = PRTR5V0U2X
Zoom on it and see what's missing.
this schematic if it also helps
In summary, not all china good! and you get what you paid for.
Good luck with china clones.
Part 2 :MPPS V18 Windows 7 Reviews: Did all cars no problem!
I have a MPPS v18 Chinese cheap clone and it works fine.
It works with Windows 7
I have seen some talk about MPPS pcb (different colours) and tried to find out whats the different between eu or china tool.
Personally, the color of the pcb plays no role at all. A red car is also not necessarily faster than a black car.The color of the board could also be an advertising gag, so vendors can sell things just at another price. The colour of the board makes no direct difference, that’s missing the point. It simply points out that it is that type of euro clone, kinda like a trade mark
I’m using it to save
Kess tokens.
So far….its worked on everything l have tested on.
edc16 obd ‘renaults’ tricore pcr2.1ok
edc17c10 ok
boot volvo edc17cp22 ok
marelli 6o2 multi k-line ok
and some others. ok
I did all cars no problem. It can even write full flash to EDC1616 Opel
It’s reading my alfa romeo EDC16C39
Part 3 :How to repair MPPS V18 Tricore cable?
Here is the info i have found on the Internet from MPPS V18 china device.
MPPS V18 PCB Schematics
MPPS V18 Tricore Cable Pinout
Some problems on China mpps v18 maybe on new ones it is solved:
ON the tricore cable the +12v switch is only on t he pin 16 of the obd female, so it cuts +12v only on the tool the ecu is always poweered for solve it you can put a switch for cutting all positives and other for minor positives.
Boot wire have no resistor to ground.
this is a Tricore cable of high quality and tested good
Part 4: Tips on doing EGR off of Zafira 2.2 dti with MPPS v18
Need to do EGR off of Zafira 2.2 dti, I read it with MPPS v18, but I can’t write any file I have changed. Mpps can’t do it and winols doesn’t recognize a ECU.

Answer:
I am reading it directly, my mpps works without any problem, I can read and write files to psg16 without any problem but only original ones without modifications. I need good file with correct checksum.
Finally, I have done it already with my file, and everything is ok.
For all with problems like mine:
The problem was in the security access, the first try is unsuccessful and you must not power off the ecu, a second try is with success. That was my fault, every time I was resetting a pump.
