Nice GUI Jake. Don't worry about the not being able to mouse click paste, anybody that would be confident enough to re-program their transmission, is going to know how to use Ctrl C and Ctrl V. Oh, and that hyperlink to your YT page is a nice little bit of self promotion. Great vid. From UK
Dude your freaking awesome. I'm not even a mechanic but I like learning about cars just in case I ever need the information one day. I watch a few guys like Eric O south of Maine , Ivan from pine hallow , scanner danner. I hold you in the highest regard for your depth of knowledge. Thank you for everything you teach and put on TH-cam.
Awesome Jake! Not only do you teach people the proper way of diagnosing and explain it very well, you help out techs with something like this. Making a program and wanting it to be free and stay free. Awesome!!
In Jake’s next video, he’ll show us how to automatically roll every half cent directly to our bank accounts. Seriously, this is awesome Jake. I’ll buy ‘buying’ it!
Kinda crazy how we go from making homemade test leads to homemade software to fix cars. This is awesome, I'm going to download it on my Asian partition, hopefully I will get to use it soon.
I love it. You know I was thinking about the same thing, like making an open source sw while I was spending an hours to collect pieces of information to one puzzle on how im608 is preparing an eeprom file, which contains keys IDs, for older Toyota/Lexus, cause I don’t have im608 and the job was done by vvdi prog, vvdi ktmp and manual dump correction. So I figured it out, but unfortunately I’m not a developer to write a code. Respect!
That’s pretty impressive and you never seize to amaze me. On the licensing. I think it would be a headache and as soon as people pay for something they are ready to sue you if they are not satisfied.
"I got a little frustrated with Nissan" Oh boy, don't get me started 😂 Awesome job coming up with a solution, and sharing it to help better the industry, instead of keeping it to yourself!! Good looking out!!!
If you have a QR code on the range switch you are supposed to transfer the characterization. If its one of the CVTs with the internal ROM there is a "pedal dance" process that transfers it out of the ROM to the TCM.
@@PineHollowAutoDiagnostics these are external tcms. I’ll find the bulletin that explains both types and the process to get the characterization information transferred to the TCM.
Very good job for your first program. I just ran it on my Linux desktop from a terminal running the python file. I'm not likely to ever use it but great job.
Not exactly on topic but is there a way to decode TCU part numbers? Trying to find the "best" TCU for a 2010 Cube and have a list of 13 numbers so far (half have been superceded).
Fantastic job, Jake! I'm sure it will be very helpful for other techs. Just hope you get some compensation for your effort (assuming users will honor your work), once you made it free to use. PS: From my point of view, you should not have included the Python source code - you may come to find out someone, anywhere in the world, changed your software and gave it a new appearance, to sell only the .exe file online - such is the world we live in.
Anyone that would go through that effort could easily decompile the exe and do it anyway. The hope is that since it’s free and easy available that someone won’t try to do that. I need to make a website for it and get it posted there so if someone tries google searching Nissan QR code or something similar it will pop up there.
The auto manufacturers are making sure the right to repair our own vehicles is made expensive and difficult. When purchasing a used or new the seller should be made responsible for the calibrations prior to delivery (junkyard, or dealerships)
I thought about it but decided to just route them to the TH-cam page hopefully that it gets sent around and I’ll atleast get some subscribers out of it. My thought was they are way more likely to hit subscribe vs sending money.
oh smarty pants 🤣🤣🤣🤣 awsome job my friend. i can imagine that is going to be so helpful for a lot of people for sure . well this morning i have been out working on a high end super car 😁 very different as i don’t do homers any more but could not resist
I almost bought a Rouge until I read about the transmissions. I dont know whether the sheaves are too soft or the kevlar is too stiff. They get a ridge and wont advance . People stomp on the gas a lot and it eats them up.
There's no Kevlar in any automotive CVT belts / chains that I know of. Utility / off-road vehicles (dirt bikes), and snow mobiles do use rubber belts though.
thanks man. great idea and very good job. my only question to you would be this: do you have a solution for when the QR code is damaged. happens a lot in my area... I let most scrapyard know that we need those sticker to be in good shape, without paint or damage... but it still happens once in a while. every time it is a pain to find a solution.
No there is no solution at all for that. My advice is to have the shop scan the QR code before accepting the delivery as being good. If the qr code is not scannable then send the unit back as damaged
@@autodiagyt well, it is a very good recommendation. will start to do that to those who in call in advance. thanks again and keep up the good work mate!
@@mathieuvaugeois362 as far as I know Nissan can’t get a file without making it from the QR code and i honestly don’t know if there is on on the valvebody or not. I know when you buy a new valvebody it comes with a new sticker for the range switch
Looks like the early JATCO JF009e (RE0F08) doesn't need a PC to load the characterization into the TCM but there are still TCM updates that require $$$$ software/hardware to program (or swap out the TCM for a newer one).
Yes the ones with no QR code has a ROM built into the valve body with the characterization. So you erase it out of the TCM and then it pulls it from the ROM in the valvebody. When you do the software update to the TCM it does this as part of that process as well.
I just wonder what the Nissan guys can move against you for that sw.If they lose 35$ for any tech who download that file,i'm sure they want makes you pay for their loss.Thank you Jake
Nothing they can do to me. The QR code is easily read by any smart phone so the data is there. I just figured out how to rearrange it and omit parts for it to match the file you would get from them. They could quit being greedy and charging for something that cost them nothing to do.
I just liked even before watching, this guy is a genius. He has taught us alot.❤❤
Jake you never cease to amaze me with your abilities

It took longer to make the gui then it did to do the actual coding part of the program lol

Huh I just reset the adaptives in the TCM with a SnapOn scanner when I installed a reman CVT in my wife's 2010 Rogue. No issues at all... 🤔
If you have a QR code on the range switch you are supposed to transfer the characterization. If its one of the CVTs with the internal ROM there is a "pedal dance" process that transfers it out of the ROM to the TCM.
Yeah same on 2013 rogue I just did, no issues.. Might only apply to 2014+ models
I remember doing the "pedal dance" when swapping a TCU. Do you remember what it is or where to find it?
@@autodiagyt the earlier CVTs with the external TCM were probably less fussy 😉

I work at Nissan, if you have any questions lmk.

Awesome work man! Love it! Keep up the great work. I never fail to learn something from each video you do! ❤❤
Freaking awesome man. Nice work
That's incredible Jake! 😮

Great job! We need more of this. However, I wonder what kind of grief you're going to receive from Nissan.
Nothing they could really do about it. The only thing I'm using of theirs is the raw QR code data which anyone with a smart phone could get.
This is a great idea! Thank you for this video.

Thank you so much for the work you do and the explanation. Very helpful!
WOW! Great Job!!👍😁

Great video and nice job! 👍
Thanks for sharing! I think, this program may be very useful time by time!
That is amazing. Great job 👏
thank you for share and the time to make the videos

How about the election machines Jake?😊
One day i will need it thank you
Good job
Please keep it up.
cool work
What about when QR code is faded washed away ? Thanks, Singh
Unfortunately as far as I know there is no way to get the data unless the QR code can be scanned.
Sweet!
I just wonder what the Nissan guys can move against you for that sw.If they lose 35$ for any tech who download that file,i'm sure they want makes you pay for their loss.Thank you Jake
