Autel IM508S Clone Citroen BSI (N02)

User feedback: successfully clone BSI 9807531680 (N02) module with Autel IM508S.

 He was working on a Valeo BSI (Body Systems Interface) control unit from a Citroën.
The task is to clone this control unit, as there is a malfunction—it seems the turn signals aren't working.
One of the turn signals can be activated using an Autel diagnostic tool.

He had to tinker a bit to get it set up on the bench. While the wiring is generally standard—power, ground, CAN High, and CAN Low—it turns out that for Citroën and Peugeot, the CAN High and CAN Low pins aren't at positions 6 and 14; instead, they are at positions 3 and 8.

So, once he connected it this way, the control unit established communication.

Consequently, he has already read the EEPROM from it.

Now, he has read the Flash memory from the original control unit.

The donor unit and the original unit match.
The N02 [version/revision] also matches.

autel im508 clone citroen bsi n02 8

He will proceed to read the Flash memory from this old control unit now, since the EEPROM has already been read.

autel im508 clone citroen bsi n02 9

Let’s write all this data to the donor control unit.

Unfortunately, Autel doesn’t provide the pinout for bench operations.

It expects the process to be done while the unit is installed in the vehicle.
He had to track down the wiring diagram; however, as you can see, everything reads correctly and works as expected.

What Tool to Program Suzuki Swift 2024+ Key?

Question: Suzuki Swift 2026 keylessgo smart key. Tried programming a spare smart key with 10 programmers, from Xhorse to Zedfull. Cannot get in. Tried every programmer but nothing would communicate.
Which program to program key for this model?

suzuki swift 2026 key

Here is the clue.

If the 2024+ Suzuki system is ID 4A, then no standard programmer can handle it, the BCM is locked. Neither for adding a key nor in an all-keys-lost situation.

You need to replace the BCM.

 

If it is ID49 chip type, read D flash data from the BCM and generate dealer key, then add new key.

Autel IM508/IM608 will read the Suzuki Renesas BCM.

 

Menu path 1:

Go System Selection- Manual selection- Immobilizer/Keyless System (BS6)-Read Dflash data via dump.
You can read BCM data with or without APB131 adapter.
Here choose without APB131 adapter.
Autel will show you the wiring diagram.

Solder wires on the BCM module.

Then read and save Dflash.

autel im608 suzuki 2024 bcm 2

autel im608 suzuki 2024 bcm 3

autel im608 suzuki 2024 bcm 4

Menu path 2:

If it fails to read BCM Dflash via menu path 1, try menu path 2:

Go to Programmer- Chip/EEPROM/ECU/MCU -Chip Reading/Writing-MCU-Renesas- R7F70XXXX-R7F701597.

autel im608 suzuki 2024 bcm 5

autel im608 suzuki 2024 bcm 6

Check wiring diagram.

Read ID

autel im608 suzuki 2024 bcm 7
Read and save Dflash.
Read and save C-flash.

autel im608 suzuki 2024 bcm 8

Then upload BCM data to generate key and learn key.

 

Optional solution 2:

If it is an add-key job, disassemble original key shell, if the key board is NXP chip, you can clone a spare smart key using NXP key copy devices.
