Go to \u201cvehicle management\u201d =&gt; \u201cControl unit exchange\u201d<br \/>\n2. Select the exchanged control unit in the \u201cAfter \u201d tab and then calculate the measures plan. Then ISTA will automatically include the control unit validation in the measures plan.<br \/>\n3. If ISTA cannot carry out automatic validation, a warning about the absence of control unit validation is displayed.<br \/>\n4. By clicking on the \u201cNext\u201d button, ISTA generates the required ValidationRequest_VIN_xxx.json file and opens a file dialogue to save it. The file needs to be stored and uploaded via DCSnet later.<br \/>\n5. ISTA displays a note confirming that the file was successfully saved. At this point, you can exit the process using the \u201cCancel\u201d button. After processing the measures plan, the session can be closed.<br \/>\n6. Open DCSnet and select \u201cECU Validation Service\u201d under \u201cService\u201d. You can order the ECU validation service through us per VIN.<br \/>\nIf the ECU Validation Service Menu is not showing up, please check your Access Roles in DEMS. If the ECU validation Service Role is missing, please contact your DEMS Administrator for getting access to it.<br \/>\n7. Upload the previously generated and downloaded ValidationRequest_VIN17_xxx.json file<br \/>\n8. The System checks the file, and after a few seconds, a new<br \/>\nValidationRequest_VIN17_xxx_response.json file will be offered for downloading. This is<br \/>\nsubsequently required by ISTA. Start a new ISTA session<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18823\" src=\"https:\/\/www.obd2tool.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/How-to-Get-BMW-ECU-Validation-Service-via-ISTA-BMW-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"942\" height=\"711\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.obd2tool.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/How-to-Get-BMW-ECU-Validation-Service-via-ISTA-BMW-2.jpg 942w, https:\/\/www.obd2tool.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/How-to-Get-BMW-ECU-Validation-Service-via-ISTA-BMW-2-300x226.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.obd2tool.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/How-to-Get-BMW-ECU-Validation-Service-via-ISTA-BMW-2-900x679.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.obd2tool.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/How-to-Get-BMW-ECU-Validation-Service-via-ISTA-BMW-2-768x580.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 942px) 100vw, 942px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>9.
