VXDIAG VCX NANO For GM WIFI Version

Believe me I was skeptical of this Chinese product and bootlegged software. If you have any moral dilemma with stolen software and patent infringement this isn't the product for you! Most of the cheap MDI clones on ebay are actually knockoff VCX Nanos, so do it right and get something that works...I watched one youtube video and the software DVD was the exact same as the burned one I got. You've got 30 days to get the software running or return, so minimal risk. The complaints about needing 32 bit windows xp simply aren't true. I got everything working running windows 10 64 bit on both a laptop AND cheap tablet. Copy the DVD contents to the hardrive and run the autoinstall script that's in the tech2win folder. The VX Manager program should take care of the rest. The GDS2 for 2009 and newer vehicles runs off a virtual pc image of windows xp...so that won't run on an older windows xp machine anyways (does run fine on slow tablet). I emailed vxdiag for a password to the cloud service. It does work but you then tie up your wifi to the internet and have to be tethered to usb. I rarely am able to log into the American server and the Chinese one apparently doesn't offer English support so kinda worthless feature IMO... The wireless feature is worth the $10 for sure! Range is pretty good, my laptop requires too much juice to run on a cigarette lighter inverter so I parked vehicle in front of the house and had half signal. My 2007 Saturn Ion running Tech2Win worked fine. A little slow and laggy but likely faster connected to USB, or it might be my older vehicle too. I was scanning airbag codes with full bidirectional support, radio, transmission, secondary air pump, evap checks...pretty much everything a several thousand dollar scanner can do and more that it can't. UPDATE after several weeks of playing and pulling my hair out. The seller is diligently trying to remote connect in to help me with my tablet, but having problems on my end as I can't simultaneously power tablet, be on internet, and use the only micro usb to VX nano...tablet dies quickly while trying to diagnose mdi not found issue. I've had multiple quick email responses and they were able to remote in but couldn't fix wifi issued so returned for new unit without issue. The wifi was easy to setup for a few weeks then suddenly didn't show up as an available network on any device...will likely have to warranty return! The cheap $64 NuVision 8-inch Windows 10 64 bit tablet connects wirelessly to tech2win just fine and even runs GDS2 on virtual machine at an acceptably slow pace! I have attached photos on how to fix your connection issues. You have to modify your north America com port settings within tech2win!!! I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out why it was so random and sporadic working one minute and not after a reboot etc. You must point it to the COMMUNICATIONS PORT, I believe the drivers point the usb or wifi connection to port 1 at least in my case.

Updated, AGAIN. Total waste. Sure it says to turn off your antivirus but dang. I finally get it to work and even though auto protect is turned off ithe antivirus removes 8 files including the GDS2.exe and even removed the files on the usb stick that came with it to do the install. Did a full system restore on the PC, downloaded the entire suite, placed it on a usb drive, installed it again and it failed again, windows removed the GDS2.exe from the PC and usb. Went into the antivirus that is turned off and found the list of removed files, restored them (GDS2) and tech2win worked and the GDS2 worked but now I get a error message in boot up saying the pass through can't find the current version. Searched the registry and found it was referring to the MDI.exe. STAY AWAY total junk and nothing but viruses. I installed this on a spare laptop with no personal info and sync turned off. Did a total of 3 full system restores / clean installs. Had the usb drive that came with it wiped out by windows along with the one I made. I am a professional tech and just bought this out of cutiosity. Original review After reading the install instructions and installing step by step it wont work. I needed it for the Tech2win and instead of it initializing and then letting me pick the vehicle year make model I get a RS232 download mode message on that screen that never goes away. Installed it on another PC with another OS and everything acted different. Tech2win launched and acted like it was going to work with never got the option to pick the car or the type of functions I needed to do. Reinstalled everything again on both PCs and the same. The VCI needed a firmware updated both times when I already did it during the first install on both PCs. Then I notice the license is for 60days, why on earth would you want to pay for this hacked garbage. I bought this to do 1 job because AC Delco wanted 50 bucks to run Tech2win for 3 days. I'll pay the 50 bucks gladly after spending an entire day pissing with this AM junk. Update I got another unit and got it to work. Every where you look there is a different method to install this. It's all in the VX manager. I downloaded the CD image *.rar and it had both the 1.4 and 1.8 manager version. The video shows them starting by loading the 1.8 manager, reverting to 1.4 and back to 1.8. That's unreal but was going to give that method a try. When I loaded manager 1.8 I got a notice the firmware needed updated. I did and proceeded without reverting back to 1.4 and it worked this time. Tech2Win did crash the first time I used it though. UPDATE, Used it once and then I go back to use it again and get a no license message, Tried WiFi and it wouldn't see the unit and no connection. I have Window XP, Windows 8.1, Window 10 and Windows 10 Professional PC. No matter what all I got was frustration and 1 lost week in total trying to keep it working and yes I got another unit and the same.

This diagnostic tool works great. A little hard to set up. Took about an hour and a half to get working. Could not get continuous data connection on a p4 , 1.6 gig , 512 ram and 5 gig hd with Windows 7 32 bit kept loosing and reconnecting every 10 sec or so. So I tried my newer (sill really old) dual core 1.6 Celeron 4 gig ram, 500 gb hd, windows 10 64. This tool works great on this laptop I have a GMC Yukon XL and it can talk to all the different modules diagnosing problems and also able to activate inputs/ outputs, reset and recalibrate various vehicle sensors through the software provided. I have bought several different scanners and none can do a fraction of what this is capable of. This is definitely the best tool I have in my toolbox and this tool was definitely worth every penny (and then some). Shipping was fast paid extra for next day shipping ( I think it was $7.99) received it on Sunday. I would definitely recommend this product.
