How does TIS2000 & TDS SPS view the files on Corvette C6?

This article starts with a question “I have a Corvette C6 Grand sport from 2011 with AT6. I read an article that new software has been programmed into the automatic gearbox in the 2012 Corvette C6, making the switching times (with the flippers) much faster. I also heard that there are updates for the LS3 engine”.

Method one: use TIS2000

You don’t need a subscription to view the files on your own car .

You run the TIS2000 in the virtual PC and connect to your car and can read the files in your car.

It’s only when your need to update your car you need the subscription .

If you enter your VIN here you can view the latest files available for your car and compare it with what TIS2000 shows and see if your files are updated or not

Method 2: Use TDS SPS instead of TIS2000

GM TIS2000 can be set up to pull the latest firmware files, but is not for the novice to set it up this way since it meant more for abroad dealers that don’t have the best of internet services to use TDS instead.

So your best bet is to just use TDS to update the firmware instead. Its only $40 for TDS for 2 years per vin.

As for using TDS SPS with the Vxdiag nano GM, once you load the TDS software with Java , your going to get this pop up, and you don’t want to load these drivers, but use the Nano driver that will already be loaded on your machine.

So when you get this window pop up in SPS each time you load the program, just skip loading these drivers each time.

And on the next screen, it will be this driver that you use for the Nano (will be pre loaded on the machine from when you installed VX Driver MDI beforehand).

How-to’s of VXDIAG VCX NANO GM + TIS2000 works?

Topic: How to use VXDIAG VCX NANO GM work with TIS2000

ok for anyone trying to use the VXDIAG GM nano with SPS this is what you need to do (order is important):

*** please note you cannot use the VM that the VXDIAG package comes with (GDS2 VM). It’s configured in such a way it won’t work with the dongle crack and caused me a lot of head scratching to find this out.

1. Create a windows XP 32bit VM using VMWare Player

2. Make sure you add an LPT port (set to auto, not connected on startup). It doesn’t matter if your actual PC has an LPT port or not this is needed for the dongle crack later.

3. Install VMWare tools for your VM

  1. After you have the windows VM up and running install the BOSH MDI drivers here:

(the MDI drivers on the driver disk and vxmanager installer wouldn’t install on my xp 32bit VM but the one from bosh does)

5.From the driver disk or from allscanner.com install the VXDIAG MDI package with pass thru driver (VXDIAG MDI manager or VXDIAG Manager)

Download tis_data_1.iso, tis_data_2.iso, GM-NAO-TIS200-3_2008.iso, TIS2000DongleCrack.rar from this: http://auto-professionals.co/?dl=5847273d53a0b0635724a7b3e1626ef7  (password: mhhauto) or you can purchase one TIS2000 crack

  1. (files / instructions in the updated.txt you may need to click the link more than once if you get an error when downloading)
    7. Mount the tis_data_1.iso in your VM (use the virtual cdrom in vmware player and attach to iso file) this will start the auto install of the TIS2000 2007.3 software)
    8. All options can be installed using the default selections however make sure you check the install checkbox above the parallel security device on the one screen.
    9. After installation is complete you can extract the TIS2000DongleCrack.rar and copy the folder to the desktop of your VM
    10. Go into the TIS2000DongleCrack folder locate the drivers folder and open it, run the DDINST32.EXE (if you get a registry error you didn’t install an LPT port in your VM), select Express and it should install the files then click ok / Exit to close.
    11. Go back to the main TIS2000DongleCrack folder and copy SCAControlUI.exe and Id.dll to c:\Program Files\cosids\bin\ (it will prompt to replace id.dll select yes).
    12. Go back to the main TIS2000DongleCrack folder into the Dongle folder and copy the 2 files in there to c:\windows\system32\ (the dongle crack is now installed)
    13. Now mount the tis_data_2.iso in your VM (use the virtual cdrom in vmware player and attach to iso file) and open TIS2000 (double click the icon on your desktop) when TIS opens it will ask you if you want to upgrade click yes.
    14. After the upgrade completes mount the GM-NAO-TIS200-3_2008.iso in your VM (use the virtual cdrom in vmware player and attach to iso file) and open TIS2000 (double click the icon on your desktop) when TIS opens it will ask you if you want to upgrade click yes.
    15. After the upgrade completes you have successfully installed TIS2000 2008.3 and the Dongle crack, now we need to configure TIS to use the VXDIAG GM nano
    16. Open TIS2000 from the icon on your desktop, select Configuration menu from the top and select IO Management.
    17. Click the Driver button, click the Browse button, locate the j2534.dll file in the window and click open (installs the J2534 Pass Thru Driver)
    18. Now click the Add button (in IO management) enter exacly “Generic Pass Thru” in Logical Name and select “J2534 Pass Thru Driver” in the Driver drop down, click OK.
    19. Select Generic Pass Thru in the list and click Properties, in the Device Name drop down select VXDIAG, (ALLScanner) and click ok then click close to close IO Management.Now TIS2000 software is installed and configured all you have to do is connect your VXDIAG device to the PC / VM. To do this first use a usb and connect it to the PC then in the VMWare player menu go in removable devices and connect the Future Devices USB to serial converter. At this step my windows install didn’t have the basic usb to serial drivers so I connected the VM to the network (if not connected use the VMWare player menu to connect the network) and windows downloaded them from the net and installed the device as com3. you are now good to go.At this point you can now click on SPS in TIS2000 select Generic Pass Thru as your device and your good to program!!Satisfied, VXDIAG VCX NANO GM device works as a clone to the GM MDI.

Question is: can vvdi found pin code from Citroen xsara if key is not adapted to this car(new transponder) ??

The answer is:

No. Working key required.
If the bcm/bsi whatever is NEC based then it’s soldering job. If later model then maybe Lonsdor able to read via OBD
The best way if you read it from the ECU.

necpic

Feedback:

ok thanks, usually I take pin from ecu, but in this old have old sagem ecu with rouber inside so its not possible to do on this ecu, i will try from bsi.

Advice:

Be careful with the bsi. Most of them are water damaged craps (the cable from the engine bay is providing some water into the bsi) with badly aged cables and connectors. It could be a nightmare…

SD Creation Guide for Kess V2 & K-Tag (5.017 & 7.020)

Trying to use a kess v2 2.47 clone to read an ecu of tmax 2007 and when I click on its protocol I get the error ““Invalid protocol file”.

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-01sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-02

Possible reason:

You have maybe bad protocol file for this ECU on SD card.

Solution:

SD image needs to be created for CID Number SD-card.

Follow the below guide to creation SD card for Kess and Ktag:

 SD Creation Guide for Kess V2 & K-Tag (5.017 & 7.020):

Tools / Software that you will need:

  • Winhex (full version is recommended)
  • Xorfiles
  • win32diskimager

The files I used to do my Kess SD Card, where made / shared by Svvag2000 (Give a Big Thanks to him) and you can search online for this tutorial / files (Guide to creation SD card for Kess and Ktag):

  • Kess_5.017 (decrypted SD Image for Kess 5.017)
  • KTag_7.020 (decrypted SD Image for KTag 7.020)
  • KeyFileGenerator.cmd (Script to generate KeyFile needed)

You can review this video Svvag200 made for help on the procedures:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sE2xVdhSFew

#1: Insert your SD Card in the Card Reader, and Open WinHex

#2: Hit F9 and Select the SD Card / Drive Letter:

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-03

#3: Select “Edit – Select All”

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-04

#4: Select “Edit – Fill Block”, and make sure value is “00” – Hit OK

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-05

Depending on your SD Card Size and reader/system, this might take a while. (my 16Gb Kingston took 30min. so, grab a few beers )

#5: After this is done, you need to remove the SD Card, and put in the device (Kess / KTag), connect to the computer and open KSuite.

Note: If you get the error “External exception EEFFACE”, don’t freak-out. I also had it. Just try several times, connect / disconnect tool from computer or try to leave the tool connected for some minutes, and them open again K-Suite. (I also had to try more than 10times with one of my cards)

Some say the protocols, should be “greyed out”, but in my case they where normal. When I tried to “open” the protocol it just gave me the “No Protocol Found” warning.

After this is done, disconnect the tool from computer and remove SD Card.

#6: Insert SD Card into the Computer, and Open again in WinHex (same as point #2)

#7: Select “Edit – Define Block” – End (Write the blocks we need to select and hit “OK”)

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-06

These are the Blocks Value: 000000D0 – 0000019F

#8: Select “Edit – Copy Block – Into New File” (a window will pop out for you to save this new file in the desired location)

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-07

Give the file name: “Key” and save it.

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-08

#9: Then we need to run the script / batch file “KeyFileGenerator.cmd”

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-09

Note: The “Key” file we generated, must be in the same location as the script/batch file.

Some files will be created, but we just need the “KeyFile.bin”, and it should have 127,139,792 bytes.

#10: We format the SD Card in FAT / FAT32 (I don’t think you guys need help on this one)

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-10

#11: We copy the content of the folder “Kess_5.017” (decrypted SD Image for Kess 5.017) to the SD Card.

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-11

#12: Then, we open again the SD Card in WinHex (same as #2)

#13: Then we do the same as #3 and #8 (Select All & Copy Block Into New File)

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-12

Note: Now, assuming your SD is bigger than ±122mb, we need to “cut” the image file we just made.

#14: Open in WinHex, the Image we just created (if you didn’t close, it might be already open in WinHex) and repeat the same operation as #7 & #8, but this time with this block sizes: 0-793FFFF

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-13sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-14

This is the file we need to use combined with the “Key” file we made in #9. The file should have 127,139,792 bytes

#15: Now we open “XorFiles.exe” and select the files by this order:

FileName 1: KeyFile.bin (Created in #9)

FileName 2: Decrypt_SD.img (Created in #14)

FileName 3: This is the File we Need for our “New SD Card” – Give the Name and Location you like.

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-15

#16: New we just need to “Write” our Image file in the New SD Card.

Open and select the drive you want to “write”, select the Image File and hit “Write”:

sd-creation-guide-for-kess-v2-k-tag-16

After this is done, you can put the Sd Card in the Tool, and your all set…

(Finally, you can have some more beers )

NOTE: I´m not the author of any of the information shared in this file. I just put this together to make life easier to other people that might be finding hard to have this SD Card made.

All Credits must go to the Author of these Files (Svvag200), and at least to “pocinas” that made me clear point #14.

I hope this works for you guys… Cheers to All…

Big thanks to @ boxsport (DK forum member).

I’m extremely impressed with this Autel MaxiCom MK908p scan tool after a few weeks of use. The interface is intuitive and navigation is quite easy. The touchscreen is incredibly the largest I’ve ever purchased and is very responsive. I can scroll without having to resort to pushing buttons. The layout of PIDs and graphing capabilities are amazing. The PID descriptions are actually understandable. I have not seen a slew of cryptic abbreviations for any of the PIDs.

I’ve been really happy with the bi-directional capabilities. I’ve used it mostly on Fords, however, I believe Autel MK908P hits the ball out of the park and it will have useful by-directional controls for all makes.

It’s super easy to update, more like using an Android tabletone-click update via Wi-Fi is enough to get the latest version of diagnostic software with more vehicle coverage and bug fixes.

Came with a J2534 ECU programming device, very professional for BMW and Benz. Capable of replacing the existing software in the ECU, programming new ECUs and fixing the software-controlled drivability issues. An advanced ECU diagnostic tool.

And it allows you to do a whole lot more than scan the car and diagnose problems. For instance, you can reprogram keys as long as you get the key code. It is also able to reset many systems, from check engine light to ABS. Should you want to reprogram certain ECU settings, you are able to do so; however, this feature is only available for certain models. Above all, I guess these are the reasons why it claims to be a perfect scan tool for auto shops and professional technicians.

Out of the Snapon , Mac, and Matco scan tools I have, this one is by far the most versatile and complete.

Autel MaxiCom MK908P is the best one after MaxiSYS Elite, MaxiSYS MS908P, MaxiSYS MS908it has advanced configuration (hexa-core Processor, 64GB memory, 10.1M LCD etc) as well as full-system full-brand diagnosis, ECU programming /coding etc.
