Here I want to share a wonderful online shopping experience because of the patient service and cost-effective product, foxwell NT510 multi-system scanner.
I possessed a small workshop and I usually fixed and sold cars I was familiar with. I mainly worked on Chrysler, vw/Audi, BMW, Ford, and GM. Several days ago, I wanted to look for a scanner which supports full functions for some specific car models. My friend online introduced Nt510 supported my vehicles including Chrysler, VW, BMW. I also had a US made Ford F250 Pickup Truck. It seemed that NT510 did not support ford. So I asked the customer service of shop online if there was better products for me to scan and program features for Chrysler, VW ,BMW and Ford. Besides, if I bought a car brand for NT510, could I full access to all computer features of that vehicle and beyond my basic OBDII readout, such as SRS, ABS, Airbags, etc?
The customer service brought good news for me that their factory just released American ford software the day before yesterday. What a coincidence! I could order it and choose American ford software, but I had to pay for the additional software for Chrysler. After negotiation, I purchased the Chrysler NT510 and paid 60$ to have both the GM and Ford software added to the device I purchased (originally cost 200$).
After 3 days delivery, I received my package without damage. There was a scan tool, a user guide, a memory card, a USB cable, a CD software and a nylon carry pouch in the package. They provided me free update online before delivery.
I tested the function of programming control modules I desired with foxwell NT510 as soon as possible successfully. The only regret was that the NT510 could not disable features like seat belt warning chimes and lights, which was my additional requirement. Even so, I was still satisfied with this shopping experience so much .
Just got VCM ii clone to have a play and i managed to get to enter the code,
It changes the ccc option in module programming to a different list with more options and also appeared to give me icons to read and write dumps
But I ran out of time to play more and see what options did, I did try to disable my seat belt off warning buzzer but it failed to work, Other peoples input would be nice once you test it...
See my photos, get the first page up as shown then click update/ special functions on your right hand side
Enter the code 60274
If i have helped click the two magic buttons for me
Well it worked right away for me as my images display. it supplied me with options to work with, I think its going to allow me to save the various as built configuration files to the desktop for instance,And look at the files in a hex editor then i can have a safe play with my setting and see what i can turn on and off like the annoying seat belt reminder for instance.
You say you could not get anything to appear or you mean could not get anything to work?
I got it all to appear quite easily.
And as for getting nothing to appear in special function i had two option in there, read config file and modify, Also for me the tool box module programming, 3rd option down had changed to allow what i would normally alter within ccc as well as a as built option which i do not normally see on this year of car, It had speed items for one listed, were as this is found on later fords than mine in the pcm on first page.
