Problem:

One of vvdishop.com’s customers reported a problem when reading ISN B38 ECU of a Mini Cooper with xhorse multi prog programmer.

Multi-prog reported two errors: Failed to get server address and server authentication failed. Image attached:

Possible reason and solution:

1. The server is under maintenance. In this case, try later when the server is back.

2. The problem is Windows Defender, especially on Windows 10 system.

Windows Defender prevents you from accessing Xhorse server. Disable Windows Defender on your system and try again.

 Suzuki Bosch ME17.9.64 ecu is supported by xhorse multi prog. It will read and write this ecu on bench mode.

It works but the pinout is incorrect on multi prog.

In the Multi prog program. There is a bosch part number lookup. Use the numbers of the ECM and narrow your search. Then use that information to look up the ECU pinout online.

According to our customer’s feedback. the pcm flash/pcmtuner wiring diagram works no issue.

How does Xhorse Multi Prog work on GM ACdelco modules? Good/Bad?

Xhorse Multi Prog support following GM Delco ECMs:

Delco E38

Delco E37

Delco E92

Delco E39

Delco E39A

Delco E67

Delco E82

Delco E80

Delco E83B

Delco E78

Delco E98

Multi-prog read these ECMs via bench and boot mode.

Our customers have read delco e83, e39, e98. Reading flash no issues on bench.

Boot mode will ask for a 16-digit password (shadow password), multiprog cannot read the password.

For example, when clone Delco E39/E98 ECMs, multi prog asks for 16-digit password. You can read password with obdstar or I/O terminal, then try reading with multiprog to test and confirm.

 2017 Pathfinder, add-key with Autel IM508. It’s not taking any of the keys in, even their original key.

No DTC codes until after a few shots, now flagging B2198.

UPDATED:
My Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Key Max Pro came to the rescue.

It’s saved my ass on several Nissans that my Autel wouldn’t do.
Popped right in with it, after running the programming process on my Key tool max pro a second time. First time, the remotes took, but not the chips. Second programming run with the Key tool max pro, the chip programmed in. Not the first time my 508 failed me, either. The code went away after programming with the Xhorse tool.
