I knew I would regret watching this video, now I'm going to have to buy one of these and start f*ing around with programming. Lol. Seriously though this is the first video dealing with programming that gives me enough confidence to play around. Plus your excitement with sharing this tool gets me stoked. This was a good one. Ty.
Thanks Mark. it is a very interesting and fun tool, and expands you diagnostic capabilities as the tool and be used to bench temp components also.. thanks for watching
Good presentation. What is the name of the other unit with a USB cable? Is that a converter and where is it connected to? To the computer? Can you send me the link?
Ha! Pretty cool! I bought this last month just to have a b.o.b. because I didn't want to spend the 200 for the aes one, I really wanted it so I wouldn't forget my autel or launch dongles lol plus I work on older cars so I'm still able to use the com lines and between Amazon rewards points and coupons it was free for me lol But I didn't know I could use it for bench programming! I have the cardaq3+ so now I might go to the junk yard and get some practice in😎
hI not sure how i missed your channel. just subscribed. Quick question. 1. i can find bat 12 volt and ground from ECM wiring diagram(reference in mitchell wiring diagram under 'engine performance", not sure what should be thee keyword on ECM to find out that ECM ignition 15... NOT 30. this is for toyota camry LE 2.5 L 2013 MODEL. apprecaite your help. also for power and ground i see quite a lot BAT, B+, AND Many more coming from fuse like Fuel injection, igntion module etc. do i need to connect all of them to 12 volt +ive..(30) if not what is then keyword i should search like just BAT, B+ IN Ecm WIRING
Can this be used to clear or reset the "driveability report"? I replaced my car battery and the smog techs would not pass it as it had not finished all the driveability test. I had to take it a certified emissions specialist who passed it after I explained it to him.
New subscriber in the process of learning programming. I own the tool . I own a 99 Honda accord and a 07 Odyssey. I will be purchasing a J2534 pass through. I would think I would need to purchase from Honda the programmable program. Am I correct in that? It was a very good programming walk through thanks for sharing. 👍Artie
Welcome aboard! and Thank you, yes you will need to purchase honda's software, and get very fimiliar with it, i suggest practicing on a ecu from a pick and pull before going to your vehicle.
Are you paying for the ECU files ahead of time and then uploading the files from you're laptop? For example, I have a GM and need to program the ECU. Do you pay 50 bucks or so from AC Delco and then transfer it from the laptop to the ECU through your JBox. I know the BOB is in there and allowing the benchwork but I'm trying to figure out if the program you have on the laptop has the files I'm guessing the MDSFA which you say is Ford.
with gm the updates/programming are done directly from the ac delco site, using TLC. there is no need to down load the files onlt the software package.
I was Actually looking at this last night on Amazon nice review I just have to buy a pass thru J2534 thinking of the mongouse maybe have you any experience working with it ? Jeremy
no I haven't. its made by drew and I believe there are different versions of the mongoose. Seems like allscanner(vx diag) just branded lol.. they are 495 per unit, if you plan to deal with a more specific manufacturer then i would say go for it, but if you are to deal with a lager variety go more general.. 1200$(cad) gets you a autel j2534 elite. not a bad deal and autel is now recognized in the list of suitable j2534 programming devices. thanks for watching Ian.
Would I be able to use this product to build a bench test for multiple OBDII GPS devices? I was looking to find some with can high & low signal to simulate the ignition on & off events.
Can I do the same procedure to write VIN into an used TCM for a 2014 Chevy Cruze? I do have a GM SPS2 subscription/Techline Connect + VxDiag VCX SE + GoDiag GT100+ (If try to reprogram it via TLC/OBD, it stalls at 50%. No issues reprogramming any other modules with car's VIN)
the tcm and pcm must talk on these vehicle for programming, I have not tried tcm on bench, but i do know that the pcm acts as a path to the pcm so try on vehicle before trying bench or hook up pcm and tcm together on bench, if that does not work try a fresh install of tlc. thanks for watching
@@JLsAutoSolution Thanks for replying. Will contact TLC tomorrow and ask if there is a paid service in order to allow SPS2 to work on used modules. If no solution, I might just ship it out to a specialist to write the VIN. I believe that the BCM acts as the Gateway/Canbus on these cars, so I might have to bench hookup all 3 of them (BCM, PCM + TCM)
I noticed my godiag gt100+ is only reading 11.9v I noticed yours was low as well. I have seen other ones reading 12.5v . I assume even know it's bit on low side you haven't had any issues. I take it there's no adjustment on the voltage. I know some .
How could you afford to do programming on different cars? Wouldn’t you have to buy a subscription to every auto manufacturer out there? We were going to do programming at our shop but realized that it wasn’t financially feasible because we would have to literally buy a subscription from an auto manufacturer each time we did a vehicle programming. Then come to find out that taking it to the dealership was cheaper than what we could do it for.
that depends on how your shop is equipped, the up front cost of the tooling is expensive, then there is learning all the oem software, which most techs will not due to the time it will take to learn the software on their own, for the pricing the cost of the subscription is passed to the client, then there is a programming fee. Its more of a question, do I want to deliver the vehicle today within a timely manner or tell my client that there will be another day delay on delivering their vehicle? Also take into account if the vehicle is drivable, if not then you will need to tow it, then after it is programmed you will need to either retrieve the vehicle yourself or have it towed back,. so there might be down time to retrieve the vehicle. Example: around my area the cost of programming a gm vehicle is 200$ due to the travel time(ect), TLC is free- no cost sub fee is 60$ CAD Programming fee 100$ CAD 40$ travel time Dealer 149.95tx(cad) My cost is not much more then a dealer. Thank you. P.S, If you are doing more European brands, then of course the cost will be higher, due to the subscription and files are more expensive. Check around on what a normal programming fee is at a dealer depending on the system, and price accordingly,
@@JLsAutoSolution yeah the average cost for programming a module where I live is about 100 bucks at the dealership, so yeah definitely not cost-effective for us. As far as the programming a couple of our techs have actually wrote some of the programs for these PCM‘s so that’s not a big deal as far as a learning curve. but I can understand. It is probably much more expensive where you live.

i thought the included power supply was a bit low is it safe to use higher power one ?
yes it is, i use a bench powersupply and normally run 13.5-14.5v
thanks for watching
cool it look like ids for the mazda,cool box
exact same Dan,
thanks for watching
Hi, one quick question, do i need to put a resistor for can high and low in the tool or it is not a must
Good presentation. What is the name of the other unit with a USB cable? Is that a converter and where is it connected to? To the computer? Can you send me the link?
Its a j2534 Device that allows programming of a vehicles module

I would look for the main powers and grounds that lead to the pcm, 12v(constant) and ignition along with the grounds
Can you test to see if the computer is producing the 5 volts, on the 5V reference wires?
Can this be used to clear or reset the "driveability report"? I replaced my car battery and the smog techs would not pass it as it had not finished all the driveability test. I had to take it a certified emissions specialist who passed it after I explained it to him.
That's awesome you made it easy for me.
Glad you liked it!
Have you tried it on older ford pcm? If you click no for pats does it disable pats in the ecu?

Ok , but what can you program it to do?….
Cable yellow do you use ?

Thanks for your video.
Where can I go to get the data to connect the obd2 pin or ECU pins to the breakout box? Thanks
alldatadiy.com
What programming software are you using ?
this was on a ford I believe. so vcm2 software.(IDS)
Hi , what is a good program to use ,to get most wiring diagrams
all data diy or mitchell diy.
can i bench test 24v ecu ?
Can I do the same procedure to write VIN into an used TCM for a 2014 Chevy Cruze? I do have a GM SPS2 subscription/Techline Connect + VxDiag VCX SE + GoDiag GT100+ (If try to reprogram it via TLC/OBD, it stalls at 50%. No issues reprogramming any other modules with car's VIN)

WHERE I PUT THE 120 OHM RESISTANCE TO CHECK FAULT CODE IN A ECU ?
I noticed my godiag gt100+ is only reading 11.9v I noticed yours was low as well. I have seen other ones reading 12.5v . I assume even know it's bit on low side you haven't had any issues. I take it there's no adjustment on the voltage. I know some .
The power supply that is sent is not the best. I updated my power supply to an adjustable one. Works way better.
enjoyed 😊
I'm glad!
Just cop one. Hear its really good if someone wanna get into programming. Better late than never
I agree, Just be careful and mindful about the wires and where they go:) or all you will see is smoke.
thanks for watching.
@@JLsAutoSolution agreed 👍💯
I have the same pcm on table 3.0 escape can you help me with pin out to connect on bench with godiag? Terminal 15 /30 /31 and can lines
the easiest way would be to purchase an alldata diy subscription for 30$ cad, and then use the pin outs from there,
thanks for watching
olá conheces algum site que possa tirar os pinout dos quadrantes auto.
This kit can used for excavators
Were do u see de amps? Drawn
