Title: RNS 510 - SWL Error while trying to update
Post by: supercati on June 25, 2015, 02:03:54 pm
Hello!

I bought recently one RNS510, but I have an small problem... the touchscreen and the buttons doesn't "work", they don't respond.
So I cannot for example enter the pin code.

I did a little bit of research, and could be that I need to... install new software? But I'm really lost with RNS510 honeslty, I couldn't find a solution which could work (didn't tried anything yet). I know that with < + > + i I should be able to load a CD with new software, but no idea if I don't need to enter the code for this, or either which version should I install.

Here there are a lot of FW: http://www.my-gti.com/3868/volkswagen-rns-510-firmware-download-repository

Mine is 1T0 035 680 C.

Thanks in advance! :)


EDIT:

I've used "SWL Fix FW" and I could boot again and try to update, touchscreen works fine now... but I cannot update. I have tried with lots of CD's and even DVD, but It's just impossible, I get this error which you can see below:

Error – EcuOrder.txt – Error reading HW Vers

With CD's and different FW I get stuck ALWAYS with the same screen. DVD are rejected almost instantly  :confused:

Any idea of what I could try?

To update this... after a lot of research it turns out that if you have this error is because you "bricked" your unit... more less.
Mainboard is defective if you have this and must be repaired/replaced. :(

There are a few guys (jomafi or josi for example) over gpsunderground.com that might be able to fix your HU. Not sure if anyone here has the know how. :confused:

I sold it and bought another one (B version), because I saw to repair I had to pay 200-300€ so was not worth it for me.
Luckily I could sell it for a good price :)
