X74Ph2 Card

This document provides instructions for resetting a hands-free card for Renault ECU Tool interface to a virgin state. The process involves using EEPROM and Hitag2 programmers to erase the programmed values from the card and write new virgin data to the EEPROM and transponder chip. Key steps include opening the card, reading and saving the current EEPROM data, using the software to generate new virgin data, and programming the new data to the EEPROM and transponder on the card.

X74Ph2 Hands-Free Card Renew

For Renault ECU Tool interface

Short User Manual

April 2021

[email protected]
Software and further user manual applies to silver colour 3 button card with Hands-Free
used in Laguna II Ph2 (X74) / Espace IV (X81).

NOTE: Procedure described below produces 100% correctly prepared card. Please look for
programming faults in the process of reset-to-virgin if card is rejected during learning to car
and if RF remote or Hands-Free does not work. Also please check PCB for a physical damage.

• Open the card by cutting edge of plastic casing carefully.
Card consist of two separate units – transponder PCF7936 and PCB with RF remote control
and Hands-Free (HF) circuitry with MCU and EEPROM 25AA040

• To erase programmed values from card you need EEPROM programmer for 25040 and
Hitag2 programmer for PCF7936.

• Use EEPROM programmer with in-circuit programming capability. Solder wires to PCB
according pin numbering in the picture. Wire colors in the picture matches Carprog A4
cable, but any other programmer will be good here – just follow EEPROM pin numbers.
We intentionally did not specified connection point for pin 8 – power supply to EEPROM.
Most of EEPROM programmers provide +5V to pin 8, but this voltage is too high for PCB
that is normaly supplied from +3V and can cause damage.

NOTE: To maintain power supply to EEPROM please attach 3V button cell battery to the
card during EEPROM R/W!

• Read EEPROM and save to file

• Connect Renault ECU Tool interface to PC, run software and select <HANDS-FREE CARD
RENEWAL FOR LAGUNA II PH2 / ESPACE IV>. Click button <Load EEPROM Dump> to
load EEPROM file to the software. File size must be 512 bytes.

• Press button <Reset Card Data> - dilalog STEP#1 will pop-up:

Select <Card contain original PCF7936> if original PCF7936 is available.

Select <PCF7936 is lost> if original transponder is missing and you are going to replace it
with new blank PCF7936. If this is a case, please read ID of replacement transponder using
Hitag2 programmer and enter it to yellow fields before to proceed to the next step.

• Press <OK> button. Next dialog will pop-up:

• Save VIRGIN EEPROM dump to file. Later you must to program it back to card

• Save PCF7936 data to text file. Data that you see in current dialog will be saved

[email protected]
• Run Hitag2 programmer and enter ISK for transponder unlock. Set factory ISK for blank
replacement transponder when original transponder is lost:

Use ISK, extracted from EEPROM if original transponder is available:

• Page by page write calculated data to PCF7936

• Write virgin data to EEPROM on the card

• Done – you got virgin card and now it is ready to be learned to any car
