List of which lead to use with which software?

[markchambers]

Does anyone have a list of which leads work with which software?
I've only recently stumbled across this site (which incidently is easily the best car communications/diagnostic forum) and can't help noticing there is no such list (from what I can find).
Ideally the list would be in manufacturer order with the software then listed and finally which leads work with the software.
I understand there are many variables with all the different language protocols used but I would think there is definatly people on here with the knowledge to write it.
Alternativley we could all list our own leads and software they work with.:dontknow:

Think you mean:

opcom = opcom software
psa-xs + pps2000 & lexia3

Don't suppose you are located near Newcastle are you?




how long is a piece of string?

Longer than half it's lengh if folded in half.

It is Ford specific, gaining access to ABS, SRS, TCM, PCM and having the ability to program Tdci injectors in on Mondeo/Transit (also mentions Mazda,Volvo,Jaguar and Aston Martin).

I've no experience with it as yet but I have ordered it so will report back when it arrives.

Intreasting, but when you get it in your hand test it to the max.

What about re-configering airbag modules, ie to fit new module, re-code keys, etc etc.

please share the software and is it a demo software when it comes?

Carsoft interface/cables will work with BMW Inpa/ediabas and GT1 software.

[tarmac-terrorist]

Is there any other software I can use with PSA XS interface other than PPS/Lexia/Proxia ??

[markchambers]

I've received the Ford lead and software off E-bay today.
I have only tested it on a 2003 Mondeo TDCi so far, I'll report back on other models at a later date.

Well what can I say?
The software isn't very good at all,don't get me wrong it works but the GUI is very basic and needs improving.

I have successfully read and cleared fault codes (non OBD & OBD codes) from the mondeo and monitored live data in both PCM and HUD.

ABS, HUD and Airbags seamed to read ok although there were no DTC's to report (TCM was not available as the Mondeo has a manual gearbox).However it would not read the injector correction factors of the Mondeo unless I initially selected Focus TDCi rather than Mondeo? Strange.

I need to have a bit more time playing with the software to give it a proper report. I need to be able to create faults and see if they are picked up (I also have access to genuine Fords IDS so can easily check if its working or not) but first impressions are that it could be quite a useful tool although the software is a little basic.

The software can be downloaded from for free: (beware Kaspersky anti-virus does come up with a virus false positive about downloading from the site)

Ford USB scanner Ford diagnostic ford-scan fordscanner ford-scanner for Sale (http://www.minsk555.narod.ru/fordscan.htm)

I have also tried using the lead with the following software to no avail:
Scan XL
ScanMaster ELM
ScanTool.net V1.20
ProScan
Digimoto

Non of the above software recognised the lead/interface.

I have also purchased this kit.... bit worried about software as my virus software comes up with a trojan warning when installing so I have removed it from my everyday laptop and installed on a laptop that i dont use on the net. I used it to reprogram a transit connect that had running problems...read injectors and reprogramed with the correct codes. also cleared the faults it had. good piece of kit but limited to certain models also i tried to run auto enginuity on the same car but it wouldnt pick up the obd interface so i hope its not limited to the one piece of software? any ideas for more software? Never tried the airbag system..well got into it but no faults so seems a good in depth program just not a big model range,
thanks

[markchambers]

I have now tried the software on a 2008 2.5T mondeo and it read dtc's from all the modules but would not display live data (this may be due to the fact I had to choose older shape mondeo from the selection screen as new mondeo isn't there).
I've had it connected up to a 2009 Kuga TDCi and it read all dtc's and performed live data display no problems.
I also connected it up to a 2007 C-max 2.0 petrol (auto) where it read all dtc's from all modules EXCEPT airbag, I induced a fault and the airbag light was on yet the software said no dtc's; it wouldn't clear the dtc's either.

[markchambers]

No that one won't work with digimoto, you need a genuine ELM327 interface, the one you pointed out is a chinese clone and these dont work with it (I know cause I bought a clone too).

Hi. What does PINS MOD mean ? For example a cheap blue KKL interface, I have to cut something or ? Thank you in advance.

Does anyone know if the Ford IDS software works with any other interfaces apart from VCM?

[Madmorris]

I bought an interface off ebay which stated it worked with Modeo & transit TDCI's (FORD SUPER DIAGNOSTIC SCANNER TOOL MODEO FOCUS TRANSIT on eBay (end time 30-Mar-10 00:37:24 BST) (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FORD-SUPER-DIAGNOSTIC-SCANNER-TOOL-MODEO-FOCUS-TRANSIT_W0QQitemZ250602307724QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK _Diagnostic_Tools_Equipment?hash=item3a590fc08c)).
I got the trojan warning when installing the software but downloaded "mobydic" from www.ozenelektronic.com (http://www.ozenelektronic.com) and that seems to be the same software with no warning.

Have had a little plat with a 2005 125ps transit TDCI and although it says it cannot commincate, when run in demo, it then sprag into life. Reads live data and injector codes. Haven't tried to recode or reset any faults yet but looks promising.

It seems to use a oe902610 interface chip. COuld do with an alternative to the software though. Anybody else found anything to work with this one?

alot of cracked soft comes up with warnings i presume the software will be safe just disable your virus prog or add the program to your virus exclusions database/list
