VXDIAG VCX FD Firmware and License Update Failed Solution

Problem:
The device is a VXDIAG VCX FD with a GM software license. However, the license does not appear in VX Manager (even though the correct beta version vx manager for VCX FD is installed). Attempting to install the Passthru driver fails with the error:
“The device license for this application is invalid or expired.”
Additionally, firmware updates are blocked, stating the license is invalid.

Solution:

1. Verify Software Compatibility:
   • Ensure you are using the correct beta version of VX Manager specifically designed for VCX FD, not the regular VX Manager.
2. Check Firmware & License Status:
   • If the device shows firmware version 2.0.4.1 but fails to update to 2.3.1.1 while displaying “license invalid”, this may indicate a hardware issue.
   • In such cases, contact your dealer and request a repair or replacement for the device.

Does VXDIAG 2TB Software Include a GM DPS license?

Question: 

Does the VXDIAG 2TB Software HDD/SSD include a GM DPS license?

The VXDIAG 2TB HDD/SSD typically comes preloaded with diagnostic software and tools for various vehicle brands, including GM (General Motors).

The 2TB software hard drive or solid drive does include a GM DPS (Diagnostic Programming System) software 4.52. But the DPS license has expired. 

DPS 4.52.2000 license valid in 04/2024. Try to change the computer date/time to before April 2024.

If it is not working, better get the newer version.

The newer version, DPS 4.53, comes with a lifetime license. But it is not free. You have to buy it somewhere else.
