I got the vxdiag vcx nano gm gds2 software installed, open gds2 to diagnose vehicle, it failed to connect.

Install the MDI driver, and there will be an option to select the device.

If use VXDIAG VCX NANO GM, select the device type as MDI or VXDIAG.

If use VXDIAG VCX SE series devices, select device type as MDI2 or VXDIAG.

If there is a VXDIAG device option, select VXDIAG J2534 as your first choice, otherwise choose MDI2 (vcx se) or MDI (vcx nano).

VXDIAG Renault uses a separate driver. Make sure you don't install vx manager (also don't install Renault driver in vx manager).

How to Install Tech2win in PSA Service Box?

Here is the guide to install GM Opel Tech2win from PSA service box. PSA Group has added the Opel/Vauxhall Tech2win subscription as standard included in the GDS2 Subscription.

This works with Passthru tools such as vxdiag vcx nano gm, drewtech Mongoose GM, Drewtech cardaq, Cardaq m, Bosch KTS and even Ford VCM3. However it does not work with Autel Passthru :( you will need to make sure the relevant drivers are installed.)
Then go to Service Box. You MUST use Chrome as the browser and NOT Edge, Explorer or Firefox. For some reason the Java doesn't run properly on those.
