Re: OBDX Development - Developer Tools and Suggestions
Do you reckon they have all these application specific patches in the MDI D-PDU drivers and other tools drivers or could it be something else? I mention because if its not app specific patches required but a change to the API support somewhere else, then you might need to unwind these patches again later on.
Have you read the FAQ? For lots of information and links to significant threads see here: http://pcmhacking.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1396

Re: OBDX Development - Developer Tools and Suggestions
I don't know of any other DPDU application out there, but I have explicitly stated on the OBDX website that the DPDU support currently is only for tech2win.antus wrote: Mon Aug 04, 2025 5:14 am Do you reckon they have all these application specific patches in the MDI D-PDU drivers and other tools drivers or could it be something else?

All of these changes are purely for tech2win, since tech2win is doing all kinds of wrong commands/requests.
I have checked against the logs of the MDI, and it is allowing the invalid messages, so they must also be applying the same kind of patches to allow it to work.
I would guess this is why drewtech has a specific driver labelled for tech2win also.
I have tried to not break support for correct SAE DPDU specification, these changes are allowing out of spec requests to still work, its just a matter of finding all of them and applying a patch!

Re: OBDX Development - Developer Tools and Suggestions
This may not be the right forum or post for this so please direct me if it isn't.
I just got my OBDX Pro VX and it is working great on my Windows 10 machine. I need to get it setup on my Windows 7 laptop with the J2534 driver and I got the error below when I tried to install it. I used the "GT" driver to get the VX installed and I see it got assigned a com port so I know that part is good.
What does this error mean and is there a fix or procedure I can use to avoid it?
Thank you!

1) Make sure you are running the latest windows update on that Windows 7 computer.
2) Make sure you are running the latest .net 4.7.2 framework
3) Make sure no antivirus is blocking the installer from completing its task.
The error you have copied here is a hard fault with windows, it is not a fault generated by the app itself. This typically happens if antivirus blocks the program or if the computer is missing the .net framework.

Installing .net 4.7.2 did the trick. Thank you for the quick response!!!

I am not aware of any companies creating tuning software for the Chryslers unfortunately (With or without OBDX tools).AngelMarc wrote: Sun May 10, 2026 4:46 am What's the latest with Chrysler NGC4? I seen a lot of talk was happening a while ago.
Not a whole lot of options for those vehicles other then the main commercial guys

Re: OBDX Development - Developer Tools and Suggestions
Seen the pack of XDFs for 70 euros? OldSkullTuning supposedly figured something out.
Is read and write sorted out at all?

Re: OBDX Development - Developer Tools and Suggestions
Might be worth while reaching out to that company and asking what to use for those ECUs.
Im not aware of any public tuning solutions for those ECUs other then commercial tuning software.
