Vehicle model example:

Ford F-250 2001 super duty

Problem:

Not able to write VIN on the used PCM module after PCM replacement.

Device used to program:

Autel MaxiIM IM608 & MaxiFlash J2534 (The module is in default package)

Ford OEM subscription

FYI:

Normally IM608 alone can do this procedure. All you need to do is click programming and look for a programmable module installation (PMI) which is a sequence in that the software will save all the original PCM’s information in IM608, then prompt you when to put the replacement module on it. Next it will then transfer all the information to the replace module.

With this vehicle 2001 F-250 it does not have this functionality on the IM608 so to do this procedure will be using J2534 with the OEM subscription.

J2534 ECU Programmer

Procedure:

Go to Ford Diagnostic Menu->Auto Scan->Programming->Programmable Module Installation

The Autel IM608 does not have the "Programmable Module Installation” feature, use Ford’s OEM software to complete the programming task.

Purchase Ford day subscription from Ford Service Info website

Turn ignition to the OFF position

Run Ford OEM software

(* To write the VIN on a used module when original PCM is not present. Turn off the ignition when run the Ford software.)
Select vehicle year: 2001
Confirm vehicle information

Follow the prompt to Enter VIN
Insert VIN number and Tear Tag information

Note: Do not start a reprogramming session with a low battery in the vehicle and programming tool.
The fuel pump and the engine cooling fan(s) may run during the following procedure.
PCM reprogramming is in process

Then continue to follow prompts

Check VIN and insert mileage

Follow prompts until succeed.

Done.

Launch X431 Diagun V feedback: a must-have diagnostic tool

Review 1.

X431 Diagun V is one of the best Bi-Directional Scanners on the market. Launch X431 is a great company. They stand behind their product and provide A+ Tech support. I highly recommend their products.

Review 2.

Launch Diagun V is an excellent tool for both professionals and DIYer’s alike. Works well on most 96 and newer vehicles, but will also work on several pre OBD II vehicles.

Review 3.

Just got X431 Diagun V set up was quick. Able to read codes on 1998 Honda. Fixed my vsa and trailer assist on my 2013 Acura mdx. easy to use I scanned 2008 s550 Mercedes Airmatic and worked great to re program suspension.

Review 4.

I want to hate this thing(Diagun V), I dislike this form factor. However this has been a useful tool. I have worked on a 2000 VW Beetle, 2001 Audi A6, 2005 Chevy Avalanche, 2012 Chevy Malibu and a 2013 Buick Regal. Doing some hard work like programming a key fob, diagnosing ABS brakes, and figuring out door locks. This unit has worked out with no problems.

What are needed to be improved:

It won’t program the immobilizer on the VW or Audi but this is due to the lack of information on the vehicles, so the jury is still out on that.

It would be nice to have some information about the reports you can make and possibly send to customers. I am guessing most of the information is online with launch, I just feel that the unit could have been sent with something.

To be upgrading…
