VVDI Prog Renesas R5F61797 Chip Not Support Read Data Solution
I was trying to read Renesas R5F61797 MCU by Xhorse VVDI Prog programmer.
Why is this on the list if is not supported? I spend time to remove unit to solder wires. If is not supported just don’t put it there now i will look like an idiot to client also.
Solution from Xhorse engineer Auto Key Programmer :
This chip has no communication port for read data, that’s why VVDI prog software with prompt: This chip not support read data!!!
if you have the dump, load the dump it support write directly. Please read the software prompt before your work.

Citroen Picasso 2006, r`eading pin OK
Citroen C3 , Engine 9HZ, year 2005, reading PIN = OK
Peugeot 207 , Engine 9HZ , year 2006, reading PIN = OK
-> I have extracted pin from over 20 cars, all fine. Not necessary to connect charger to car as it doesn’t put Bsi in service mode like psa bsi tool, or avdi where windscreen wipers would activate etc. On average 5 to 8 minutes, although a 508 and a 2008 I did it found code almost instantaneously.
-> “F108+” LAST UPDATE V31.20 positive feedback:
tested on 2004 Citron C4 , PIN code retrieve less of 4 minutes , verified with Diagbox
VIN: VF7LC9HXC74172360
PIN:HS19
Diagbox ( in french “same PIN code registered inside BSI” )
PCB Full chip
I plug on OBD2 and F108+ sniffing “kwp fast”traffic , i turn ignition “on/of” 10 times / 4 minutes
2004 C4 / this car is not CAN ! CAN protocol is after 2008 on PSA car , some user say NO HE CAN’T , but yes we can !
I’m sure full chip PCB F108+ with last update can retrieve all PIN code , it’s the same BSI for PSA ( Siemens , Valeo & J-C ) .
And if it’s not FULL CHIP tool F108+ , CONNECTION BREAK DOWN , k-line is not operational .
Thanks TERMINATOR1000 & Duracell2’s experience share (DK member)
More OBDSTAR F108 FAQ:
- Update onlineonly by micro SD card , 1 year free access after registration , serial number + dealer ID for registration : “OBDSTAR UpgradeTools”
- Is it true: The device just can support the car after 2008 year and the car which is CAN Protocol.?
Answer: No, FAKE NEWS , my report prouve that F108+ support “no-CAN” car before 2008 …. I’m suppose they advertise old F108 support the car after 2008 year and the car which is CAN Protocol
Many bad feedback on forum , i’m not OBDSTAR seller , but 1 test 1 PIN !
Sure for the other buyers of F108 without chip , it’s sad , PCB is incomplet K-LINE is unplug ! no miracle …
So i have just used this little device for reading pin codes and so far 100% success. Personally I would recommend it to anyone thinking of buying one as its cost is low and 1-2 keys pays for it already.
