Checksum is invalid. error code : 0x00000001

Method: BENCH

Issue: You are seeing a warning that the file integrity cannot be verified or the checksum calculation is incorrect.

Solution
  • In most cases involving BOSCH MEDC17 architecture, you can safely ignore this warning and proceed with the programming.
  • The software will typically correct the checksum during the write process.

This warning usually appears because the ECU has been previously modified using a third-party tuning tool that didn't calculate the checksums according to Bosch standards. bFlash detects this discrepancy to warn you, but its internal auto-checksum correction handles the fix during the flash.

Issue: The vehicle's Gateway is rejecting the programming request because the necessary safety conditions have not been met.
