      I have a MaxiCom MK908 Pro with J2534
    How do I use it to program a used ECU from the salvage yard into my car? 
    Anyone that could give me a clue on how to move forward with this task so that I will be able to change my faulty ECU with the one from the scrapyard. 

    The car is a Citroen Picasso C3 and the ECU is a "BOSCH EDC 16 C34

    I can't say for sure with a Citroen because I have never worked on one here in the US. If
    it's like most cars you must go to Citroen's service website, purchase a subscription to
    download the software to program the ECM.
    I don't know if you will run in to security issues or not as I have never done a Citroen.
    Some cars require you to program keys or atleast sync the security system after
    replacing the ECM.
    If you have never done this type of job before, it will be a learning curve and most likely
    will take many hours.
