Can I Use VXDIAG VCX SE with Renault ADT Software?

Question:

Will VXDIAG VCX SE/VCX NANO Renault software diagnose new Megane 5 Electric 2022 car?

Answer:

No, for this model you need Renault ADT software.   If use CLIP software, software will throw error “the vehicle is not subject to diagnosis with the CLIP device, please switch to the ADT device”.

Renault Group launched the Alliance Diagnosis Tool (ADT) to its dealer network worldwide. ADT is the next generation of vehicle diagnosis and repair tool for car models introduced after 2020.

VXDIAG VCX NANO doesn’t work via doip, it cannot be used as passthru with Alliance diagnostic tool RENAULT program.

VXDIAG VCX SE does work via DoIP, but some users tested cannot use the physical token for ADT.

So for newer Renault with SGW security gateway, better use original VCI or Autel/Launch X431 scanners (still need to bypass gateway).

VXDIAG Cannot Connect with Ford Fiesta 2022?

Problem:

One of our customer reported that his vxdiag vcx nano Ford IDS scanner failed to connect to a Ford fiesta 1.0 petrol. 2022.

Solution:

For Fiesta 2022, you need to use the Ford FDRS (Ford Diagnostic and Repair System) software for this vehicle as the error picture indicated.

FORD: The following vehicles are supported by FDRS

2018+
Expedition/Navigator

2018+
Ecosport

2019+

2020+
Transit

2019+
Transit Connect

2020+

VCX SE can be used as J2534 passthru device for Ford FDRS software.

NOTE:

VCX NANO and VCX SE do not support CAN FD protocol, if your new Ford has CAN FD protocol, you need VXDIAG VCX FD for Ford.
