 2018 dodge Ram 3500 fobik key done with Autel IM608 and 12+8 bypass cable. No Problem.

With Autel 12+8 cable you must remove all that hassle to get pin code.  Then learn key.

there are several ways to bypass the Chrysler SGW and one of them is through the Star connector, It’s almost always easy to access and you don’t have to disassemble anything.

Does the star connector cable work with Autel IM608? Or is the 12+8 bypass cable the only way to do 2017+ Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge vehicles. I see a lot of folks say to just use the star connector cable and don’t mention it working with the IM608.

Yes, it works with IM608 and IM508.

Autel does not have Start connector cable for IM608 Pro, but you can use the one from the other equipment.

When the star connection is fully accessible right by the ebrake. That’s a 3 to 5 minute job with the star connector.

Or get the brute force style cables and never spend more then 5 minutes hooking up. It has the 2 can lines you connect to the star connector. I upgraded mine and soldered in a star connector plug in, now all I do is plug in and go, I suggest breaking the locking tab off, much easier to get it out and it doesn’t fall out.

Problem:

I want to register witech micropod2 clone diagnostic scanner on Mopar.com. It won’t accept the serial number and reported an error ‘unable to register device’.

Any solution?

Solution:

Chrysler tech authority for subscriptions use to work fine with clone micro-pod2 for programming with witech1 17.04 . Now Chrysler has changed from the normal site to now mopartsp.com that wants any obd tool registered and warning wiTECH 2.0 requires Mopar’s 2017 secure microPod II (WSP-31560 or above). The device you attempted to register to your account does not meet this criteria.

Ever since witech/tech authority moved to MoparTSP, micropod clones don’t work for ECU programming. This is down to all clones sharing the same serial number meaning you cannot get around the device registration.  The process to register and configure the software is difficult if you are not in USA.

There is a limited range of approved devices, any other legit J2534 devices might work, might not.

With cda6 offline its one option to do ecu programming.

 2017 Jaguar XFAll Keys Lost successfully done with Autel IM608 Pro via OBD.

 Which cable and techstream version for Lexus SC430? Check the user test report and review below.

My mini vci v1.4.1 cable off obdii365.com works with the following
2002 SC430
2007 SC430
2004 Tacoma
2010 Camry

There are several versions of the cable floating around, but there are two major distinctions:

V1.4: Most common. Cost: $20-50

V2.0: Difficult to find. Many devices that claim to be V2.0 are actually just scams. Cost: $50-$100

Let me start by saying cable v2.0.4 only read the VIN data of my 2007 SC430 but wouldn’t change any settings or command the seat ECU to recline the passenger seat back. I think the cable or chip has issues.

Cable v1.4.1 worked 100% as usual.

I have an old Gateway laptop running WinXP 32bit.
I am running Techstream v15.00.016 but I first loaded v12.10.019.  It seems to function the same for my cars.

Here is the link to the 5 min install

if you want to download TechStream directly to your laptop, click link below
You will probably need WinXP or Win7 32 bit to do it this way.
you may need to download a free copy of winrar to unzip or unpack the v12 files.

http://blog.obdii365.com/2017/05/09/toyota-techstreamv12-10-019-free-download/

here are some pics of a couple of operations

A lot of customized functions

I selected the engine ECU button…then data list.  Those are the live engine data screens. I have noticed some Toyota and Lexus models separate transmission live and engine live data access, while others combine engine/transmission live data.

 

 

 

 

 

command the seat ECU to recline the passenger seat back

Allows to register TPMS

It also has a change VIN function.

That could be handy if you buy a used ECU and need to match it to your car.  not sure cause i didn’t get a chance to test it.

Personal experience: this mini vci 1.4.1 cable works perfectly. Good enough for reading/clearing codes and diagnostics.

Possible to use CDA 6.13/6.14 with WITECH VCI POD or MicroPod 2 clone?

CDA5 has been tested and verified working with both VCI Pod clone and Microped 2, works for basic stuff, like to change VINs, read/reset DTCs, unlock PCMs (at least a 2004 to level 3), etc.

How about newer CDA 6.13, 6.14 and 6.7?

It is a Yes. CDA 6 works with clone Micropod ii.

CDA6 is working only offline. This cannot be used to access any ‘online’ features. You can’t update online or automatic, need to get and select the correct flash file for the module first, but you can flash all modules with CDA6 and make many configurations, adjusts and modifications.

Support vehicles: Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Fiat
Works well with years till 2022

How to modify micropod2 clone with CDA6?

Micropod firmware downgrade is required. You can find Micropod2 firmware Downgrade Utility & SN changer tool on google.

Use the Micropod 2 software utility tool to downgrade a micropod 2 and changed the serial number, the micropod 2 works great with both CDA 6.14 and 6.7.

A note about the firmware utility.
People have a tested and verified a downgrade path from witech 2.0 to witech 1.0.
People have also extensively tested downgrading firmware versions of witech 1.0 to earlier versions of witech 1.0.
People have verified which firmware versions are needed for CDA 6.7 and CDA 6.13.

 Tutorial and download: Autel MaxiSys MS906 screen freeze (splash Boot logo) No response Symptom and solution.

Symptom:

When the power button is pressed, it is normal for the MaxiSys logo to appear on the initial screen for about 20 seconds and then to the main menu screen,

The boot logo (MaxiSys) stays still as if it has stopped, but it does not go to the main screen although it blinks.

At this time, it does not turn off even if you press and hold the power button, and it repeats to turn on again after a while.

Solution:

Preparation:

Download Autel MS906 flash file

How to flash Autel MS906?

1. Download the compressed file and unzip it, find out the “Autel_906” folder;
2. Copy the whole “Autel_906” folder to the blank TF card root menu. (The TF card should be formatted to FAT32);
3. Plug the TF card into the MS906 card slot;
4. Power on the MS906 and it will go to the flash process automatically.

If flash succeeded, it will require buying and downloading updated software for normal use, subscribe Autel MS906 one year update service

Disclaimer:

Flash won’t be 100% successful because the flash software package is a higher version than the device. MaxiCOM MK906/MK906BT and MS906 Pro are recommended.

Question: Should I buy an obdprog m500 or obdstar odomaster odometer correction tool? Anyone know which one is better?

OBDPROG & OBDSTAR are the same company, OBDProg is a rebranded tool.  Software is the same, some tools have more or less coverage, but the software per car model is exactly same.

M500 has 3 versions, Full config M500 = ODOMASTER Full config from OBDSTAR

MT401 = X300M (version basic version)

Update tool on laptop is same, distributor codes are same, registration is the same. Same oil reset bonus feature.

They are the same capabilities. The instructions are better on odomaster but they do exactly the same.
odomaster has better instructions and shows you pictures of the clusters. It’s a very good tool does 2020 vehicles.

m500 flawed massively. Instructions on more complex adjustments are difficult to follow. Lots of reports of failures. Many cars shown with functions missing and support is non existent. Save your money and buy the odomaster or the xtool pad 2 or pad3.

 Here comes the working solution to Autel IM608 generate universal key hardware version type does not match the program problem.

The problem goes like this:

I have the Universal key main menu with the Autel IM608 latest update. But it’s not working, tested on 3 different autel im508, im608 and 608pro all same using ikeyat004el universal remote, after that also the remote not working even when changed battery no flashing at all.

Error: ”The hardware version type does not match the program used to upgrade the universal key. Use a correct universal key”

Solution:

It is not device issue.

As the machine says you use wrong key.  To generate BMW 3 series 2011-2018 smart key you need Autel BMW style remote.

You cannot generate BMW smart key with standard remote.

Autel universal keys both inside and outside are different.  Autel universal keys can be divided into these types:

• Razor keys
• Premium keys
• Basic keys

All can be reused.

Razor keys: BMW style, supports all vehicle keys except 868MHz/915MHz;

Ford style: can be used on 868MHz/915MHz frequency keys only

Premium keys and Basic keys: have Chrysler Honda Ford Caddilac styles. can be used for most car brands except 868MHz, 915MHz, BMW Volvo
