On March 27, 2026, Alientech KESS3 ECU Programmer expands its capabilities with a new protocol release dedicated to Bosch MD1CS069 ECUs, found on Iveco LCVs. This update enables BENCH mode operation without the need for invasive procedures on the control unit.
These ECUs have been widely used on 2.3 and 3.0 FPT engines since 2019, making them a standard in the segment. As a result, they are increasingly requested by workshops specializing in fleet and commercial vehicle maintenance.
Key benefits for daily workshop operations:
- Safe and efficient access via BENCH mode
- Reduced intervention time
- Streamlined handling even for in-service vehicles
Once the ECU is connected in BENCH mode, users can proceed directly with read and write operations, enjoying a smooth and linear workflow.
This protocol is now available for KESS V3 users with an active CAR-LCV or TRUCK-AGRI (for vehicles over 3.5 tons) BENCH/BOOT activation and an active subscription.
