 Question:

First comes with Launch X431 V /X431 V+/X431 PRO/ PRO3/ PAD2 Wireless Printer Setup

procedure . Then how to print Health Reports wirelessly from Launch x431 V scan tool.

Part 1: Launch X431 V /X431 PRO/ PRO3/ PAD2 Wireless Printer Setup

Firstly, you have to set up a printer plugin for the first time you use it, it should prompt you to install the correct one, be sure that you’ve selected correct printer and click the print icon.

Step 1. Android devices do not have “drivers” built into the tablet, so you haveto download your wireless printers’ specific app from either “google play store” or the printer manufacturer’s website.

Step 2. Install the wireless printer app onto the X431 tablet and follow the on screen instructions.

Step 3. Configure the app you installed on the tablet to your wireless printer

Step 4. You can now “share” any images, screenshots and X431 diagnostic reports via the app to your own wireless printer.

5. To access this menu press the “share” icon and then select your printer app.

Part 2. How to print Health Reports wirelessly from Launch x431 V scan tool

You can see, I have already completed the health report for this vehicle, now I need to click on “Report” at bottom and enter the relevant information, click on “ok” and it will give me a PDF version.

Next I choose “Save as PDF”.

Now I can exit the launch software, I have Adobe Reader installed, I open reader and find the file, after it loads I go to the menu at the top right corner and click on “Print”.

That’s it. I hope it helps.

Enjoy!

I’d like to share my experience with the AT-200 ECU Programmer and MSV80 unlock upgrade.  I had three codes on a customers’ vehicle that came in 2011 BMW 328Cic:

2E7C BSD (Bit-Serial Data Interface) data bus communications fault

2F71 Digital Motor Electronics (DME): electronics box fan, activation

2B3D Diagnostic Module Tank Leakage (DMTL), system fault

While it’s possible all these present faults could be true, it would still be unlikely so I decided to replace the DME.  I had used the AT-200 to replace other ECUs without issue and very easily (MSV80 license is required), however, the MSV80 instructions involves soldering chips on to the board and the instructions are just a small resolution image.  I did not know the orientation of the TJA1050 so I used a multimeter and the data sheet of the chip to determine the correct orientation on the board via voltage and ground.  For the other small resistors I did not know the size and ordered them based on guess and parameters given.  They are 1.6mm in length.  I also had to add another CAN-H and CAN-L wire to my AT-200 plug.

Chips I used: 

771-TJA1050T/CM118 TJA1050T/CM,118, 594-MCT06030D2201BP1 MCT06030

D2201BP100, 80-C603C104K5RAC3121 C0603C104K5RAC3121

After adding the chips I had no issue reading ISN, writing ISN, and for me Backup and Writing of the DME.  I plugged the DME in the car and started it right up without any other ISN changes to CAS or anything else.

Good to know:

1. Please make the connections shown in the above image 4, because someone feedback he tried to identify the ecu he get the error: connection failed.

2. You are at your own responsible for any risk when you make the connections by following the above images, because it is from one AT200 user @ wase17.

Alright, hope this article helps those in need and who are curious about this AT-200 ECU Programmer.

 Since the service interval reset of Porsche Panamera 2018 Hybrid cannot be done by our own tester, it is a request from the same trader to do it.

Although it is a 2018 model and an older model, when I first tried it with LAUNCH CRP239 that it could be done easily, although there were items, when I executed it, a message like "Power was cut off" appeared in the meter It cannot be reset.

Is it impossible with LAUNCH? .. .. Disappointed, the AUTEL MS909 can afford it! And MS909 are connected, and when you click the service reset, "Confirm that you are connected to the net" is displayed, and it seems that it resets online.

Since you are connected to the internet, click "OK". It seems that AUTEL has not yet supported it because it says "not supported" when I look around and expecting what will be displayed next .

Does Porsche even have to do a service reset online at this model year? .. .. I felt a little uncomfortable when it was a difficult time, but next time I connected BOSCH with no use .

The service reset was not supported just because it was found that "service reset is possible only with the diagnostic machine".

Finally, I thought that LAUNCH would not be compatible because it was impossible with CRP239, but I connected LAUNCH's highest peak model " X431 PAD V ".

It was a bit different from the usual procedure, but it was easy to reset offline instead of online functions.

After all, regarding Porsche, it was Panamera's service reset that I was convinced that PAD V was one step ahead of other general-purpose machines .

Fiat 500 add two new keys but how do I make them dealer keys so they will program by the Autel MaxiIM IM608 ? I have one working key and im608 read pin correctly.

 

 

Suggestion:

Need to read immo data first there should be make dealer key option once you’ve ready immo data. It’s not just pin must read immo data. You have to read immo data make a dealer key learn the keys 100% .

 If you have a working key you select 2 keys to program or in this case you would select 3 keys to program as you wants to add an original and 2 new remotes.

Program working key first followed by the next 2

Unavailable keys are only erased permanently from the system and cannot be used again once the procedure has been completed.

Go into immo system first and you will see -

Read password

Generate dealer key

Program key

Follow in that order

Program original in first followed by 2 new keys.

The package comes with plenty of adapters, jumper cables and accessories for use.

2. for doing diagnostics, vehicle immobilizer & security work whether it be on the bench with the included power adapter or in the vehicle with the OBD II port supplying power.
3. I always use this to verify that the networks are communicating properly and that there is proper power and grounds being supplied to the box assembly. You don’t want to hook your very expensive scan tool up and it be fired because you didn’t have the proper powers and grounds from somebody’s previous shoddy work on a vehicle.

4. Godiag GT100 is the easier one comparing with other brands of Breakout boxes, it comes with additional features for doing ecm, ecu repair on vehicles.

5. For diagnosing your car when you have a check engine light, having this definitely helps us narrow down the issue.

6. Reset the check engine light

7. Can save your settings on your radio when you change your batteries, it is very cool.

8. Able to use GT100 without having to get a scanner. It has the potential to save money on diagnosing car issues and repairs. Mine has worked well with great accuracy.

9. Can be connected with multiple modules. Strong compatibility, making use and diagnostics more integrated and robust.

10. Give early stage of signal/alert that need to work on before it completely breakdown, this helps to save a fortune and avoid a great chance of standing in the middle of nowhere waiting for rescue.

11. Godiag GT100 supplies the vehicle with power when you are transferring batteries to avoid data loss which is another plus to this box.

12. 12. Using a Vident scanner and the Godiag GT100 breakout box to perform a bench test for the ECU remove from the car (with can-bus error, airbag light on and niggling power problems, but no idea get any further). Turned out to be a corroded pin that was preventing the communication. Great outcome and saved a fortune. Fantastic bit of kit and you don’t need an expensive scanner to pair with it.

13. Plugged the socket under the dash into Godiag GT100 and turned the ignition. Soon after, a few of the LEDs lit as we expected with varying levels of brightness. The brightness of the LED also requires interpretation, as a weakly lit LED lets us know how good or bad the particular part of the car is.

14. Used Godiag GT100 on a Mercedes and the VVDI2 platform. If you know what you are doing it’s a great tool which shows the results in real time.

…

Godiag GT100 Breakout Box Using tips:

Please make sure you’re fully aware of the capabilities and use of GT100 as with little or no experience just as with other tools, equipment you can do thousands of dollars to a vehicle if not properly trained or knowledgeable with what you’re doing.
