As everyone knows, programming a control unit always has the risk of crashing the control unit but the control units below are FAR more likely to fail programming more likely than not.
Avoid programming these control units at all costs. If you have no choice, make sure to educate your customer on the chances of failure. If they fail, the control unit will most likely need to be replaced.
