2025 Storm ECU questions...

[Kiwicol]

Thanks for the clarification Ulf, much appreciated.

Does this affect '24 and '25?

My understanding is it's the Storm series (Gen 3) that's locked.

Triumph upped the power from 165hp to 182hp (by allowing the throttle to go to 75%) then encrypted access to the ecu so folks like us can't play with it any further. In reality, you're somewhat better off getting a Gen 2 that you can unrestrict to 100% throttle with a Penner Tune & get even more power than the Gen 3 has. You won't get the gen 3 colour scheme though.

i recently sent my 25 storm computer to BT moto, they can tune it, and it made a significant difference. in my case I added a vandemon exhaust and air filter. But I have not been able to get tune ecu to connect to clear a service light before or after.

Awesome, well there ya go, BT Moto can tune the ECU from a Storm, because BrentO has had it done. They'll be busy . . . .

For some reason "on bench"-mapping (you are connecting directly to the pins of the removed ECU or even have to drill a hole in it to connect) is easier to develop than via diagnosic port. Don´t ask me why.
As long as it is the only way, I am fine with it.
Use it to get rid of the ETV restrictions and use a piggyback solution like Powercommander to adjust fuel and ignition to your hardware modifications.

Not being able to clear the "service wrench" light is unfortunate! I'm coming up on my first service (+/- 600 miles?) and I was hoping to avoid getting the dealership to clear it.

Perhaps the encryption can be defeated in reverse engineering of the encryption keys. If the communication is the same payload as one in the hacked version (prior years to Storm), just encrypted differently, this can be attacked with looking at the first encrypted packets to derive the keys, given that the header of the communication is the same payload.

Hopefully the dealer won't "fix" it for you and put the stock map back on it.
