#FORD VCM 2 VCX PATCH#

I have been bit by that a few times by forgetting to plug something into the internet or not accessing the app and having it lock up till I reenter my password and let it connect. Also no phone home built into the software. Maybe they could do what the tuner people do and marry it to the VIN and if you need more than one VIN payДЄ bit extra but not the $600+ per year like it is right now.Д«TW my idea of reasonable price is lets say $250.00 for the tool and $25.00 and $25.00 year for each added VIN over the 1st one. I wished that Motorcraft would come out with aВ reasonable pricedВ <<<< Ok I know that is a funny one.

#FORD VCM 2 VCX INSTALL#

I did try an install of the older software and it did not connect with the newer VCMII. But with the clone VCMII I am not willing to take a chance of bricking mine. I know someone that has the older IDS software from before the VCMII days when they did not have theВ phone homeВ feature I have read somewhere that if you try to use the newer software from Motorcraft it will brick the Chinese units. Review 5: try the newer software from Motorcraft Honda HDS interface is very cheap from china and latest software can be found online and works great never failed meвЂ¦. good quality Ford VCM from china works just like original, there is some good quality benz and BMW units out there, vag com and VCP for vag. Review 4: good quality, working like the originalД¬lone vcm2 also has good quality, iвЂ™m not saying ebay or Alibaba. The software is a bit of a hassle to install, but I picked up a cheap laptop on Craigslist to dedicate to the job. They did well and my other supplier is back working again so if I do buy forВ peopleВ IВ canВ goВ backВ thatВ routeВ toВ getВ newВ unitsВ ifВ IВ need/wantВ any. BTW the reason for the 2 unit is I was testing a new supplier in China. IВ pickedВ upВ theВ olderВ disksВ onВ Fleabay.В TheyВ areВ theВ 2009В issueВ ones.ДЄll in all I am happy with both units when used with the older software. The software that came with that clone was messed up somewhere andВ wouldВ notВ connectВ evenВ hardwired.В BothВ unitsВ workВ onВ theВ firstД¬opyВ ofВ IDSВ IВ got.В IВ willВ beВ testingВ theВ cloneВ withВ aВ REALВ IDSВ thatВ IВ have. The hard wire connections on both work just fine however the wireless connectionВ wasВ aВ PITAВ andВ IВ wasВ notВ ableВ toВ getВ itВ toВ work.В Also If you donвЂ™t you will have to dig out all it parts that are buried inВ theВ systemВ youВ installedВ itВ on. YouВ mustВ runВ theВ patchВ beforeВ youВ tryВ theВ appВ theВ firstВ time.

#FORD VCM 2 VCX PATCH#

The key when installing the clone software is the patch file.

One is hard wire and the other has the wirelessВ connection. Well I am going to chime in with my experiences, I have 2 clone sets. Review 2: Happy with both vcm2 with old ids

I loaded w7 on mine and the software with the VCM comes with WMware and an image of XP sp3 to load for IDS. I would suggest as one did above to buy an old laptop with at least 3gb of memory and 256gb disk drive. Virtual machine emulates a computer within a computer isolating the IDS from the real world and license checking. VMware is a virtual machine running on the laptop. It is cumbersome but does appear to work. If I bought it again, I would not buy the wifi module equipped version.

It is also needs a firmware update to use the current v97 IDS. The link is for wifi compatible model but does not include the D-Link wifi modules. I was able to get theВ softwareВ loaded and operational. I have not played with it much yet and have yet to get the wifi part to work. THE MOST IMPORTANT TIP- VCM2 clone SP177C or SP177C1:Д«.uk/5/where-to-buy-ford-vcm2-clone-sp177c-or-sp177c1/
