    Question VCM Scanner and Credits Question

    Does the VCM scanner work as a regular scan tool where I can use it with any car... or does it only activate for the car you have activated with the credits?

    Also does the VCM Scanner allow you to run some of the tests that the manufacturer scan tool can run? Like can you toggle the ABS system and run some of the tests?

    You can scan vehicles without spending credits to license them. However, not all ODBII vehicles are supported (they're adding support for one of the other bus types soonish i think, which will give them broader support).

    Cycling ABS is not supported functionality.

    Sir,

    My firend has an existing HP tuners suite with a basic credit (purchase direct from states
    In case we made to modify the Temperature or dis-able the oxygen sensor or open speed gm/ford vehicle do we have to had a credit licensed.
    Orthis credit licensed applied only once you made a pcm,vcm flash or programming.??? Well since they purchased this unit up to now they dont used it .

    If you want to modify the vehicles pcm you must license the file in question by using credits.
    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    Thanks bill

    By the way, Plan to purchase one hptuners suites GM base plus ford licenses
    for clarification,GM/ford support by this vehicle software, it means we can do modify open speed, dis-able oxygen sensor and temperature or vice versa. For your information this are only the thing we needed for the shop.
    Thanks again
