Using Tunerpro as scan tool

Post by vsslpr »

Is it possible to read pcm trouble codes using tunerpro via the aldl connection??

(I'm having thermo fan issues and having trouble getting to the bottom of it!!!)

Cheers

more than likely but it is very hard to say without knowing what model car you are trying to do it with ?

You can use the ADX in the enhanced bin thread (https://pcmhacking.net/forums/viewtopi ... =27&t=2518) to show all the DTCs. The TP logging guide has a basic rundown of how it works .. https://pcmhacking.net/forums/viewtopi ... =10&t=2223

On page 3 of the guide it has the button function, click the "All sensor data dashboard" button which will bring up a list. The list is shown on page 4, second pic, use the drop down to select the DTC Error Codes. There is also a clear DTC function next to the buttons on the toolbar.

Thanks for the help with this- Im able to view the DTC codes but when I select "Clear DTC PCM" and hit send it does nothing. I initially thought that this was due to the fact that the problem was still there, to check this is unplugged the TPS and got another DTC (22). Plugged TPS back in and tried to clear again but nothing now I have all 4 DTC codes (16 22 23 32) still appearing on TunerPro..

Can anyone shed any light on this?

The command looks like its not correct in that ADX, try the attached and if it works can update the other thread. I have only changed the PCM code clear command.
