VXDIAG 2TB BMW ISTA-P Error Not Found Solution
Problem:
Failed to start BMW ISTA-P software from VXDIAG 2TB software hard drive.
Error ISTA-P not found.
Any solution?
Solution:
ISTA-P file is missing or damaged.
Damaged files can be repaired, but the 2T all-brand hard drive does not have enough space for the repair files.
The 1T dedicated BMW solid drive contains the repair files. The repair files are located in the “tool” folder on the desktop (17G).
If the hard drive was purchased from us, the repair files can be installed remotely. Alternatively, you can directly purchase the 1T BMW drive.
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.
VXDIAG GDS2 Cannot Diagnose Captiva 2021 Chinese Model?
Problem:
How can I diagnose a Chinese 2021 Chevrolet Captiva? The VXDIAG
VCX NANO GM and GDS software I use does not support the Chinese
Version of Captiva.
Is there any other version for that or a different
Software?
Here is the clue.
They stopped with the Captiva in the China release in 2017.
Captiva 2021 is a totally Chinese model. It is actually a re-badged MG Hector.
It needs a Saic vdi diagnostic system. SAIC Motor OEM diagnostics scan tool that works with the MG SAIC Software diagnostics application running on a PC to diagnose All SAIC MG Cars vehicles. MG SAIC Software and VCI are used under license from SAIC MG.
VXDIAG Reprogram GM Volt 2012 HPCM2 with Techline Connect on Win10
Another GM Volt HPCM2 reprogramming review using VXDIAG VCX NANO GM scanner and Techlinne Connect subscription.
“I have a 2012 Volt that keeps throwing a bogus code about low coolant in the high voltage battery coolant reservoir. Not often, maybe once a year or once every 6 months. I have no idea why it is doing this. I tried the plug that basically hardwires the right resister to the leads. I checked and even cleaned up and resoldered the leads from the sensor where they go into the wiring harness and still, sometimes it just trips. When it does, the HPCM2 needs to be reprogrammed. I finally got tired of taking it to the dealership and decided to try the VXDIAG VCX Nano. I’d post the latest on how I successfully pulled it off.
1: Use a windows 10 computer. Windows 11 may work, but I didn’t try.
2:
Order a VCX Nano. It went on sale for $105.
3: Download the latest VX Manager
software installer from the vxdiagshop.com site where
you ordered your VCX Nano. Surprisingly, that appears to be clean.
4: When
installing, check the box for J2354
Passthru driver, NOT any of the manufacturer specific ones
and NOT the GM ones.
5: Go to acdelcotds.com, create an account, and buy the
$45, 1-VIN software subscription for 2 years.
6: After buying that, go back
to the subscriptions page. You will see an ‘Add VIN‘ link, but
only if you’re logged in and you have to log in again every single time you go
there. They must have some of the worst web application developers out there.
Click it. It will take you to a page where you can download the TLC (Techline
Connect) installer.) Fear not. On the pricing page, a license for Techline
Connect is over $4,300 per year. Don’t worry, you won’t need a license, but you
will need the software.
7: Run the installer. When it completes, it will run
Techline Connect. Close it. The username and password you created on
acdelcotds.com will not work in the username and password fields to login to
Techline Connect, so don’t bother trying.
8: Go back to acdelcotds.com,
Login, and again click the ‘Add VIN’ link again. On the page that comes where
you downloaded Techline Connect, leave the ‘Run as admin’ checkbox unchecked and
click ‘Launch Techline Connect’. When it runs, it will see there are a boatload
of updates that it does not have and it will go through them all. It is going to
install a lot of software.
9: When it’s all done, it will close. Again go
back to acdelcotds.com and repeat above process for launching Techline Connect.
This time, you should make it all the way into the application. Click on the SPS
option on the icons in the list of icons on the menu at the left of the
window.
10: VXDIAG should show up as a device option. After this, the VIN
should be automatically detected and then you can keep clicking Next and make it
through the process. When it gets to the modules, it’s a much longer list than
most vehicles. Find the Hybrid Powertrain Control Module 2 option and click it.
Then, just keep clicking next and agreeing to everything until it’s done.
After programming is complete, you may need to turn the car off and turn it back on again if the check engine light is lit.
Start to to finish, you’re looking at around 1 to 2 hours depending on how fast you are.
For ~$147 I now have the capability to clear codes whether it’s a real problem or not.”
Updated:
It works fine on Windows 11 as well.
Another review:
“I ordered VCX Nano from vxdiagshop.com and followed the above instructions on my Windows 11 Computer with the virus protection off. I followed your steps exactly and in 2-3 hours I was able to clear the DTC’s, and I plugged in and got a green charging light again. I have never been so happy to see my Volt charging. And it worked using Windows 11 without a hitch.”
How to Solve VXDIAG 2024.09 Xentry Benz W213 Login Failed?
Problem:
Getting a login failed error when trying to diagnose some modules on a Mercedes E class 2020 W213 using VXDIAG VCX SE Benz and 2024.09 Xentry software.
Solution:
With the introduction of the E-Class facelift and the new S-Class, a new security concept is being introduced, which will also have a significant impact on the use of XENTRY Diagnosis software.
As of the 06/2020 data release, a prompt to enter a personalised user name and password will appear when accessing the new E-Class and S-Class. It is not possible to diagnose these vehicles without entering this information. This means that these vehicles can no longer be repaired/diagnosed without diagnosis access authorization (Zenzefi license). Every user must go through an identification process in order to acquire the corresponding user rights for the facelift of the E-Class and subsequent models.
The license is a paid service. Contact www.vxdiagshop.com to activate the Zenzefi license to your xentry software.
