snap on scan tools talk to them, use the one at work all the time, oh and ummm, there is a tech 1 here at home, but its not leaving, im surprised at how sort after they are,

@ The1 hey Nigel I see you have a cartridge for sale. You say in your add its not original but reprogrammed. How hard are they to reprogram and are you able to do it? Do you have all the available cartridges to program from?

[The1]

Yes it depends on the cartridge you want to do some don't take larger proms

[MAGP]

Thanks Nigel, what do I need to look for to get one suitable for reprogramming? Can they all be put on 1 MSC and work as they should like the American programs are?

The OEM tools mob don't have Tech 1s available anymore even though their site says they do they are trying to sell me a different tool that apparently takes Tech 1 cartridges.

If anyone knows of, or has, a Tech 1 for sale please let me know. Must be working and have a VS cartridge at the very least.

I have one that I might let go. Its in mint condition. Will have a look tomorrow and see what cartridges it has.

Thanks Kojab much appreciated.

VN/VP ones will likely work on any as they are small 32KB VR/VS needs 1mbit prom. these 2 US ones have 1mbit in them.

gm 88-92 body systems
hydra-matic 88-91 transmission

MSC is useless in Aus, it was only used overseas, you can still program it via serial with TIS2000, i havn't found a backdoor in to get it to upload other roms, there are other cartridges that have a 8mbit prom which work like msc with multiple roms on them but i haven't been successful in injecting our roms.
