Which Scanner to Diagnose Toyota Proace 2017+?

11 Avril 2023 , Rédigé par JTAC Publié dans #MINI VCI

Some users reported that they got a problem connecting Toyota Proace 2017+ with Techstream. There is no Proace in the vehicle list. Try different techstream cables (mini vci, mangoose, vxdiag vcx nano toyota) and software versions, all the same.

Mini VCI Tecshtream no Proace in Vehicle List

Here is the clue.

Toyota Proace van is based on a PSA platform. Toyota Proace is a Peugeot Expert and Citroen Jumpy. PSA made Proace for Toyota.

For ProAce project TME has decided the adoption of PSA technical documentation and diagnostic tester.

So you cannot find Proace in Techstream. You will need Diagbox.

Techstream is for all Toyota and Lexus except Supra and ProAce. Supra needs Toyota ISTA* and Proace requires diagbox.

Where to download/get Diagbox for Proace?

Check and download ISTA & Diagbox license for Supra and Proace here.

*Toyota ISTA (which is based on the BMW ISTA) is a seperate software package from Techstream but it does need Techstream installed. It’s specifically for the new Toyota Supras since they’re made by BMW and have different ECUs.

Autel MaxiSys Ultra 2-Year's Review

27 Mars 2023 , Rédigé par JTAC

Mr. Ben and Tyler were going to compare notes on their experiences with the Autel Maxisys Ultra/MS919/MS909 platform. Maybe you're considering buying one? Maybe you already own one and hate it? Maybe you think it's the best thing since sliced bread. Let's hear it!

After nearly two years of owning mine, I'm still very happy overall. It brought all the features I needed it to, plus some features that I didn't know I wanted. But I'll be the first to tell you that it's not perfect.

Love it

- Code scan speed. There's now a strong list of manufacturers that support their Autoscan 2.0 feature that makes getting that initial code scan painless. I'll have to get a screencap up here at some point. It's FAST. From no codes to all modules scanned in seconds.

- They've also added the ability to share code reports via email or text message straight from the scanner. Super handy when sharing info with other technicians, shop management, customers, whoever.

- The wireless scope has become invaluable. Super easy to get the scope set up in the engine bay, jump behind the wheel and crank the engine or snap the throttle as needed. Much less likely to trip over cables. Way more convenient than getting another tech to stop what their doing and help. Easier to use -> More likely to get used.

- Ignoring the wireless function, the scope itself has still been a great addition to the arsenal. Again, easy to set up, quick to get squiggly lines on the screen. Enough power user functions available to keep geeks like me happy. It's not Pico-equivalent, but it'll easily do 95% of what most auto techs need a scope to do.

- Updates aren't cheap, but they're frequent and valuable. There's new model years added, sure, but the real value is in the features that get added (Autoscan 2.0, Cloud Reports, like that). Using a currently updated Ultra is far different from two years ago.

- The J2534 function has always worked well for me. No issues when using FJDS, FDRS, Techline Connect (none related to the interface, anyway), NERS, HDS. The VCMI firmware gets updates regularly, just like the scan tool itself.

Cons:

- The bus inspection tool isn't quite as game changing as I thought it would be. Maybe it's where I'm working? Or the cars I'm seeing? But there just haven't been that many times that Bus Inspection was a benefit. At best, it might have saved a trip or two to the toolbox for a breakout box. If it could measure network resistance, I might move it up to the Pro section.

- Waveform generator and actuator drive are largely the same way. Definitely cool. But I've had to go out of my way to find applications for both in the day-to-day of auto repair. Used the signal generator to test ABS wiring a few times. Used the actuator drive to run a fuel pump relay by remote once. Not saying they're stupid or useless. If you're using these features regularly, please chime in.

- Storing and retrieving scope waveforms needs work. For example, there's an easy-to-use system available for tagging your captures with the YMME and waveform specifics. But the vehicle list is missing years, models and several big manufacturers. That makes your captures difficult to search for later. You can tag a scope trace as a solenoid or a fuel pump, but there's no option for pressure transducers of any kind. And there's almost no options for exporting your captures. There's an option to upload your capture to an online library, but I can't find a single benefit in doing so.

- Surprisingly, bidirectional tests and resets. One of the big reasons I got the Ultra was to fill in the gaps in Snap-On and Launch coverage. It's done that for the most part. But I still need to reach for another scan tool at times. More often than I thought I would. For a tool company famed for its magic button pressing abilities, this is a bit frustrating.

Ugh

- Graphing scan data. It's just... Not good. Especially if you come from Snap-On. Yes/No, On/Off, True/False PIDs can't be graphed. The scaling options always leave something to be desired. There are no cursors, so taking measurements from your data is a chore. Definitely not my first choice in scan tool when graphing data is needed.

- Reviewing your saved data isn't much better. No options for exporting your captures.

- It's big, no innuendo intended. Spends a lot of its life in the way. Takes up a lot of space on top of your toolbox, and in the car. This VCMI holder has helped.

Had another lead short the signal and the ground circuits to each other inside the insulation. Found that out when I stuck a fuel injector wide open inadvertently.

Program Jetta 2013 All Keys Lost with Autel IM608 in Service Mode

23 Mars 2023 , Rédigé par JTAC Publié dans #autel im608

I need to adapt a used cluster on a 2013 VW Jetta. This vehicle did not have a kessy module. Was a regular flip key ignition.

I don’t have avdi or a similar device for this job. I have an Autel IM608 and original VCDS rosstech. I was able to get original cluster into service mode using IM608 and working key and I retrieved Immo data this way. Autel goes in to cluster for immo functions. Immo iv , nec 24c64. However I cannot get the donor cluster in service mode to read immo data through obd. Will it be possible to get into service mode though eeprom and backup immo data on the used cluster with im608?

Just an update in case someone in the future needs this info. I was able to do the job from start to finish with the Autel IM608.
Like I said I read immo data from original cluster through obd without issue since I had a working key.
Next I used all keys lost via dump on the replacement cluster to see if I could get it into service mode. Followed im608 instructions:
Removed 24c64 from cluster put in xp400 programmer. It read eeprom then modified it to service dump, soldered eeprom back to the cluster, and i had service mode then it rewrote original eeprom via obd and finally It read immo data, and I cancelled all keys lost procedure after that since I had what I needed.
Then I used the cluster replacement function in im608 and it did it through obd using pin and CS from replacement and pin and CS from original.
Finally I was able to do a key learn using the original keys.

PS abs coding was lost had to use online coding for brake module to get it back. Also radio theft locked I need to find pin for the radio now.

Launch X431 V+ Porsche 718 Coding Review

I'm pretty pleased with the Launch X431 V+ diagnostic scanner so far. Works great as a code reader (it knows I've pulled the fuse from the sound generator), and should do all the maintenance resets and other normal DIY stuff easily.

And the coding function appears to be fairly complete and robust. Here's the list so far:

A-S/S button saves last state
Gauge backlighting always on (white face hack)
Disabled seatbelt warnings
Remapped coolant temp gauge accuracy
Comfort blinkers to 4
Windows up/down with key fob
Change side markers to indicators only*
Activated teardrop wiper (not tested yet, don't want to spray all over the car).
Change/disable the auto-headlight washing after 10 washer uses

I've failed (so far) on a couple things, which means I either haven't found the true spot to change, or haven't found some other required spot (some changes need to be made in multiple locations).

Change spoiler deploy speed
Change Auto headlight sensitivity
~~Change side markers to indicators only~~*

*Note - I thought I'd failed on this one, but it appears to have working now, the front corner lights are now ONLY indicators, they do not illuminate with the parking or main lights. Not 100% sure what change that I made did that, so I hope I continue to like it that way as I didn't make notes of any of the settings that didn't seem to work...

Still to come:

Enable NAV display in MFI (need LVDS cable)

Other things I'm thinking of that I'm not yet sure if they can be done:

Auto parking brake engage
Re-map tail light function to EU/RoW config
Enable PDK Coasting mode while A-S/S is off
Don't unlock all doors when opening trunk/rear lid via fob or proximity sensors

About the instrument lighting:

I first did the normal "white gauge face hack" to turn on the gauge backlighting. But I found a different way, too. There is a setting to add the tail lights to the DRLs. This is sometimes known as "Scandinavian DRLs" as those countries require the tail lights to be on all the time as well as the DRLs. I did this DRL change to my Audi, as it can be gray and foggy around here in winter and having the tail lights on then is desirable. So I found and tried it on the 718 this afternoon. Works fine, adds the tail lights, front side markers, parking lights, and the gauges w/needles!

This may not be for everyone, but if you don't mind having the tail lights on in the daytime, it totally takes care of the gauge illumination issue.

Front-End Electronics > Exterior lighting > DRL with marker light = Yes

Something I noticed to research further - There are some spoiler params that appear to indicate possible visual spoiler notification, either in MFI or console button light. First attempt did nothing, but I'm going to give that some more research later.

Anyway, so far, so good. Even if I don't get any of the other stuff to work, what I've done so far is great.
