xk bypass kit platform reprogram?

ready to install tonight (even have a garage borrowed)

so I'm trying to flash my new XK532 and it says "platform 3" (06 chrysler town and country = CHDL6+ 3.0)

when I try to flash it says "platform error - firmware requires platform 532 connected

can I fix this?  (please say yes and tell me how!!!)

are you sure you're downloading this file          CHDL6+_3_00.enc

this is the firmware you need. a different firmware will reject the 532

thanks for the help, I really appreciate it -

Yes that's what I've downloaded (it says .txt after that - so it's CHDL6+_3_00.enc.txt)

but I've got a confusing observation -

using the vehicle wizard in the VIP software (had to use 06 caravan since town & country says nothing found) I can select firmware for that vehicle for 5 different modules - XK01, XK03, XK510, XK530, and 532.

the XK03, XK530 and XK532 all have firmware CHDL6+ v3.00 available for download and flash

but if I pick the 532 I get the platform error

I'm a rookie with these things, but it seems to me that my 532 thinks that it's an 03 (which if I read it right doesn't do transponder bypass)

thanks again

yep that's what I concluded - too bad since I ordered it in and had the car all apart!

thanks for checking it

i just grabbed a second one and it flashed this firmware fine... maybe you have an old bootloader file?  or old stock on the modules?   i had an issue a year or so ago where every XK01 i tried to flash crashed on me and needed to be replaced... some wierd incompatibility between the modules i had and the new bootloader version....

that's why it doesnt pay to hold stock for a long time... even with XK modules!
