You also need to supply +12V to Pin 3 (Ignition / KL15) on the EDC15P+ — you can bridge this from Pin 1 or wire it separately from your bench power supply
Use a stable 12V bench power supply (at least 2-3A).
The Galletto 1260 communicates via K-Line only — this is fine for EDC15P+ since it's a K-Line ECU.
In the Galletto software, select the correct ECU type: EDC15P+ (VAG, Bosch, etc. depending on your vehicle).
Make sure you read first and save the original file before writing anything.
The Galletto 1260 is a budget tool — the read/write can be slow and sometimes unstable. If the connection drops, check your wiring and try shorter cables. Keep the USB cable as short as possible.
Some clones have issues with checksum — always verify your read by reading twice and comparing the files.
What vehicle/engine is this EDC15P+ from? That way I can confirm the exact ECU connector pinout for your specific variant.
Good catch on the diagram! Looking at your image, the pinout for the EDC15P+ (1.9 ARL, Golf 4) is actually slightly different from what I initially listed. Let me correct based on your connector diagram:
Correct EDC15P+ Bench Pinout (81-pin connector)
Pins 4 & 5 — Ground (GND)
Pins 2 & 37 — +12V (KL30 / permanent power)
Pin 16 — K-Line
So yes, GND is on pins 4 and 5 — they are on the ECU connector, you circled them correctly in the image (top-left corner of the left plug). And +12V is on pins 2 and 37, not pins 1 and 3 as I said before. My apologies for the confusion.
Connect both pins 4 & 5 to GND — they are both ECU ground pins.
Connect both pins 2 & 37 to +12V — pin 2 is permanent power, pin 37 is ignition (both need 12V for bench).
K-Line goes to pin 16 on the ECU side → pin 7 on the Galletto OBD plug.
Tip: When you power it up on the bench, you should hear a small relay click inside the ECU — that confirms power is correct. Then start the Galletto software, select EDC15P+ and try a read first. Always read twice and compare before writing.
