    AI: Could you please share the exact model number of your AXUS WiFi smart switch, or maybe a link to the product page on AliExpress?

    AI: What hardware and software are you using to try and flash the switch (like USB-to-serial adapter, flashing tool, baud rate), and are you getting any specific error messages when it won’t read the OBK?

    Everything works correctly apart from the relay as when turning the light on it makes a click and reboots

    hmm. this feels familiar but I can't find the post. It *may* have been change Btn_Tgl for TglChanOnTgl. I can't think of the reasoning for why though

    incorrect. found post. it was the other way round

    So what can I try next to fix this or do you think some of the pins are wrong?

    not 100% sure. I have similar device but the working assignments are a bit different. try some of the dinput_x roles instead of Btn_Tgl? Might have to call on @p.kaczmarek2

    If relay works and clicks, but device reboots, then problem is in the power supply. Relay requires more power on toggle and power supply is not able to provide it. First enable PowerSave 1 on device and retry.

    I don't think that changing roles can help in this case, altough toggling on LED at the same time can also take some small extra current.
    Helpful post? Buy me a coffee.

    Right got the relay to work but when turning off the light it stays on ?

    Added after 49 [minutes]:

    "7": "WifiLED_n;0",

    Update if I don't use this pin the light does not stay on after being turned off

Topic summary

The discussion concerns flashing and UART connection setup for an AXUS WiFi smart light switch based on the BK7231N chip. The user seeks guidance on correct pinouts for flashing: VCC to VCC, GND to Ground, GPIO25 as RX (UART TX), and GPIO26 as TX (UART RX). Despite dumping the firmware, the user cannot read the OBK firmware and requests advice on identifying proper pinouts and setup. A suggested approach is to consult the OpenBeken IoT device list for existing templates of similar or identical devices to facilitate flashing and configuration.
