How to Calibrate Continental Simos PCR2.1 in 3 Steps
- Read the full flash binary from the Continental Simos PCR2.1 unit on bench or VR/OBD using your Master programmer and save a backup of the original read.
- Open the binary in DaVinci Ghost 1.0.41: The engine identifies the exact OEM software number, parses the diagnostic fault table, and unlocks verified switches (DPF, EGR, AdBlue/SCR, NOx, DTC, VMAX, Start/Stop).
- Enable switches + CHK/CVN & write: Toggle the required solutions, enable CHK/CVN, save your modified file, and follow on-screen sensor/module disconnect instructions (e.g. unplugging SCR/DCU module or differential pressure sensor where required) before flashing.
