Read and write BMW E46 MS43 ECU for Euro 2 software:

First of all, get a Galletto 1260 cable clone with the extra adapter

Here is a close-up of the 2 connectors. The white 2 pin connector has “L” and “K” pin identifiers and the black 2 pin connector, “+” and “-” which should be power and ground.

How to use the Galletto v1260 ECU flasher to read/write full flash from MS43/MS42?

1. First, you need to remove ECU from car.
2. Turn off 4 torx bolts from case and extract mainboad.

3. Locate 104 boot pin

4.Short boot pin to GND

5.Put “+12V” and “-” to your black (2 pins) socket connected to Galletto cable

6.Connect K-line from white (2pins) socket to ECU

7.Connect power to ECU

Note: If you use the K-line pin.

That’s all. ECU now in bootmode and you can “connect”
