Can i use VXDIAG Ford with Suzuki SDT2?

Question:

I have seen people use Suzuki SDT-2 software with Ford VCM2 clone. Will VXDIAG Ford / Mazda work with STD2 Suzuki? Do you know how to make my VXDIAG work with SDT2?

Answer:

If it works with Suzuki, you can try to install the file that emulates the ford or mazda machine and then copy the drivers in the suzuki folder to see if it is working.

Unfortunately, we have customers tested and confirmed it won’t work with vxdiag ford, only Suzuki VCM (or Ford VCM2.)

Test and Report:

I have Allscanner VXDIAG VCX Plus. It is supporting Toyota/Honda/Ford/Mazda. So I did try to install SDT according to VCM2 Instructions. In first step installing STD2 2.17.0.39 the program asking to connect VCM. I did connect my Allscanner VXDIAG. But the STD@ program say” Couldn’t find VCM. In this situation I can’t install STD2.

Disclaimer:

VXdiag devices are not be compatible with Suzuki sdt2.

VXDIAG VCX NANO GM Volt SPS Programming Setup

With SPS you can update the ecu software ( gm calls it calibration). Other tweaks can be done with gds2 offline.  The following is what you can do to get Chevy Volt to work with VXDIAG VCX Nano GM via SPS:

Note:

Only have to install PASSTHRU when installing VX Manager app if all you are doing is SPS programming…you don’t need to open the VX Manager app to use SPS.
It is a good idea to check if your VCX Nano is running the latest firmware using the VX Manager app though.

Subscribe ACDelco Module upgrade software (https://www.acdelcotds.com/subscriptions)

You have to get GMs J2534 Wrapper to install successfully. I did this by executing old legacy IE in administrator mode to logon to ACDelco TDS (right click select ‘run as administrator’)
You only have to do this once. After the J2543 Wrapper is installed you can run java normally not as administrator

After you launch SPS java select run above

Again, select run at the above dialog box

You don’t need MIDI or Tech2 drivers to do any SPS programming…just the J2534 Wrapper as shown above then hit Install button

If java was executed as administrator, you will get the above showing J2534 Wrapper was installed successfully…if you didn’t run as administrator it will fail

Now you should be able to select the J2543 Tool in order to push firmware onto your volt..SPS should now be able to read VIN w/o issue!

VCX allows programming and is more like what the dealer uses.

VXDIAG VCX NANO GM Review on Saturn

I was unhappy with the lack of data available through torque pro. Biggest complaint is lack of evap sensor data.

Picked up a vxdiag vcx nano gm (gm tech2win clone), works great on my Saturn third gen s series. Was able to diagnose my P0446 as a bad fuel tank pressure sensor, and was able to program the BCM to new FOBs.

RKE fobs from ebay:

The vcx nano comes with what I believe to be a cracked version of GM tech2win. I’m sure your supposed to pay the monthly subscription to the GM gods. Windows defender thinks it’s a virus, probably is. If you don’t have internet it crashes every 10 minutes or so, have to be running the VxManager software for Tech2Win to work. It comes with a generic writable 4.2gb cd, has a “this is definitely going to give me computer aids vibe” floral pattern. Great instructions on it for getting all the software configured.

The Tech2Win software is incredibly intuitive, well polished for being a Tech2 emulator from the 90s.

Saturn is so special they get their own category.

So far, so good! VCX Nano has paid for itself.
