You do have to use the software for it on a laptop, but that’s not a bad thing for us older guys that wear cheater glasses to begin with. The VX GM Nano on the other hand, is much cheaper than a Tech2 clone. Also, keep in mind that the DC to DC converter is going to go south at some point, so plan on buying the better converter chip and replacing it at some point. The Tech II clone is not bad, and I use it some times when I have limited space in the car for fast work, The downside right away, it does not work with the newer GDS2 software, so limits it use for cars older than 2013. The clone MDI in a nicer unit than the nano since it has a better cabling system, but it about $100 more than a GM Nano, which is just a clone MDI as well.
#WHAT DOES GM TECH 2 DO CRACKED#
Hence the device will come with a cracked version of Tech2win that adds the needed tweaks To GM MDI that will allow you to use it with the cracked Tech2, cracked VM TIS2000 that you will build a pass through driver, and then also works for VM GDS2, and AC Delco TDS (using it’s own VX drivers, and not the Bosch MDI/Tech II drivers that TDS will be offered that you do not want to install with the Nano device. Although its really just a mdi clone to start with, it does have the legacy type drives that allows it to run the cracked software that you would use with a Tech 2. So the both the MDI clone (blue unit) and GM Nano will come with Tech2win program, as well as a VM GDS2 program, which neither of these programs connect to GM, so you don’t need a subscription to run these two programs. So when using the MDI clone, you will be using real GM Software from the most part/limitations of the GM software without a working account.Īs for the MDI clones, they run Tech2win software to make them work just like a Tech II tool, but since they are MDI clone, they can run GDS2 software for the newer models like the C7 as well. The downside to the clone MDI, is that it really wants you to have a working account, since it does not have legacy drivers to step it back to work with say most of the cracked software like the Nano.
#WHAT DOES GM TECH 2 DO SERIAL#
On the MDI 1 clones, they all have the serial number, and again, work just like the GM MDI. The MDI clone is a copy of the GM MDI 1, not the MDI 2 that’s transfers data at a much faster rate. Next on the list is the MDI clone (blue box, and looks like the GM MDI). You can replace the converter board on the tool, and the converter itself is not that expensive. The downside of the clone tools is the knock off DC to DC converter, which tends to burn itself out in a short time. Hence diagnostics through the tool, and be be used for programming with either TIS2000 or AC Delco TDS with the tool set in pass through mode. Starting with the Tech II clone, it just that and will do what the real Tech II will do. Since this come up on which device to buy, thought that I would do a quick write up of the three.
