Will Xtool A30M OBD2 Scanner Program Keys?

Xtool Anyscan A30M:

Xtool A30M is definitely a great option for a bi-directional scanner without the need for subscription fees especially if you’re on a budget.

Can it program keys?

For example, under the 2017 Honda Accord, under the immobilizer ECU the option for key programming was available, made multiple attempts to program keys to this

car but it just kept on filling, also hooked up the a30m to a Toyota, there wasn’t any support for key programming.

key programming isn’t listed under special functions for the a30m. For the price of the A30M it’s sure it’s not available.

You don’t need to invest in the a30m if your sole purpose is to use it for programming car keys.

But a30m definitely remains a solid device and offers a lot of value without the need for a subscription license.

The A30M is the lite version of D7. The D7 has around 36 special functions now, while the A30M has 21. Another difference is that the D7 gets more updates and understandably so, since there’s an annual update cost after subscription expires.
