Выбор оборудования для прошивки Simtec 76.1: Kess v2 или K-Tag?

[SerbianBoy]

Hello everyone! I'm new to tuning. I have a 2011 Cruze 1.8 (141 hp) with a Simtec 76.1 ECU. I want to install a cold thermostat (92°C). I need to disable the thermostat heater programmatically and adjust the fan thresholds. Could you tell me which of the good Chinese clones (Kess v2 or K-Tag) would be best for this task? Are there any nuances when reading/writing this unit? Thanks in advance for your advice!

I can't use Combiloader because I'm from Serbia and it's not available here. No one else has it here.

Then KTAG

ECU Siemens SIMTEC76.1 KTAG - питание - "+" три провода!!!, вместо двух, как в хелпе. Если точнее - то подключение должно быть и на "+" от MAIN RELAY. Всё остальное подключение - согласно хелпу. Резисторов не требуется. Репрог - буквально пару десятков секунд занимает.

Siemens SIMTEC76.1 KTAG ECU - power supply - three "+" wires!!!, instead of two, as in the help. More precisely, the connection should also be to the "+" from the MAIN RELAY. All other connections are as in the help. No resistors are required. Reprogramming takes literally a couple of dozen seconds.

Can you tell me if I need to open the unit to work with Simtec 76.1 via K-Tag, or can I do it on the table using pins (in Bench mode)?

The ECU needs to be opened to solder the gray wire.

Okay, thank you.
