The Wait is Over – SID212 Support Has Arrived for KESS3
We’re excited to share a major new protocol release from Alientech for the KESS3 tuning tool.
KESS3 now supports Continental SID212 ECUs in Bench Mode, giving workshops the ability to work on these units directly in-house without sending ECUs away for unlocking or preparation.
For many tuners, this has been one of the most requested solutions in the market — and it’s now available.
What This Means for Your Workshop
If you already have KESS3 with CAR-LCV Boot & Bench and an active subscription, you can now:
✔ Work on Continental SID212 ECUs directly in Bench mode
✔ Complete the job entirely in your own workshop
✔ Avoid sending ECUs away for unlocking
✔ Save time and increase profit per job
✔ Work with no additional cost per ECU
This means faster turnaround, more control, and greater earning potential for your workshop.
Why This Update Matters
Many solutions currently on the market require additional preparation or unlocking procedures before these ECUs can be tuned.
With KESS3, if you already have the correct setup:
You’re ready to start immediately.
No additional preparation.
No sending ECUs away.
No additional costs per vehicle.
Just connect in Bench mode and get to work.
