There are many tools in automotive industry to choose from, but I have not found any that can do all the things the IM608. I was looking for a tool that can do diagnostics, Key programming, and the ability to do J2534 programming. The IM608 has the same diagnostic functions as the Maxisys MS908S, add complete diagnostics, and a J2534-1 and -2 Jbox.
In this video I show how to force on a push button ignition, and how to do all keys lost on this chevy platform. I show where the key programming slot is located and go through the entire key programming process.

I start my vehicle without programming ecu, i used GDS2 for clear high voltage DTCs from Hybrid powertrain control module1/2 and that's it,ready to go. On place airbag i put 2ohm resistors, no DTC or error massage on dashboard ;)

Helpfull video buddy, came across your channel for the first time. I'm interrested in the Im608 but unfortunately they don't want to ship it to my country. Autel China tells me to but it thru my Local dealer, and guess what? My Local dealer doesn't sell the Im608 yet. I'll be watching some more of your video's, keep up the great work!

BTW, you can ADD US market Chevy volt keys without any tools. The procedure is in the owners manual. Many locksmiths can cut the mechanical part of the key by decoding the pattern and duplicating it. No fancy tool required unless AKL.

I totally recommend Autel to put model number on the front of their Autel units so in videos, people can figure out which unit it is.

@FlashPerformance 2 года назад

On some manufacturers the Autel tools will allow you to pull the "As Built" data from the PCM and push it into the new/used PCM. However that is limited. I would answer NO to this question because there are to many variables.

Does autel sell the tool without the J-2534 (J-Box) as I have the drew tech and the Bosch ADS-625 I bought came with one as well.

The IM608 always comes with the J-2534 box. You can purchase the IM508 and add the XP400 if you are only looking to add keys.

Great video do you think the im508 would be hard for someone with no experience to learn? To program mostly American and Asian cars. Thanks

@FlashPerformance 4 года назад

The tool makes it easy, especially on Asian and Domestic. The tool gives you step by step guides on the procedure and what the process will look like. Check out ru-vid.com they have a lot of videos doing key programming.

@dtnel 4 года назад

So you were talking about the air bag control module you had to buy from the dealer. Are you able to use the one from the one that had no air bag deployment, was it gone or are they not capable of being rewritten or learned into the system? I thought there's aftermarket companies that offer them cheaper? I've seen air bag parts, etc...

@dtnel 4 года назад

Never mind saw later in the video that you addressed the module issue. That's still something that makes one wonder if there's a way to rewrite the VIN# for the SRS SDM modules. 🤔

I'm working on a 2005 Ford Freestyle, for a family member, need a new ECM, then possibly new keys, can I just buy this Autel IM608 and use it out of the box, no registering it, updating or subscription fee or any other fees? Immobilize/ learn new ecm and add new keys?

@FlashPerformance Год назад

You will need to register and update the tool before you can use it. Registration is easy. There is a newer version of the IM608 you can check out called OTOFIX IM2 www.uhs-hardware.com/products/otofix-im2-advanced-immobilizer-key-programmer-full-system-diagnostics-all-keys-lost-vci-wi-fi-10-128gb This one comes with 2 years of updates included

any options to add additional functions to the key fob. I'd like it if I could get it to close all the windows. Right now all it will do is open all the windows remotely. Not a big help. Thanks

@FlashPerformance 3 года назад

No, unfortunately not. That is programming built into the vehicle. The tool is limited to the same functions a factory tool can do.

@sergey_sovetsky 4 года назад

Programming many cars with this tool (BMW, Mercedes etc.) involves online calculation. Any idea what happens if after 1 year you won't purchase new updates? Will you still be able to program these cars?

@FlashPerformance 4 года назад

You are correct the IM tools are heavily reliant on the online server. If your tool is not current and your update expires you will loose all that advanced online functionality.

@sergey_sovetsky 4 года назад

Thanks for reply. Than it's ripoff. You're buying tool for 3500 and than pay 1k per year to use it. No thanks. Just think - you're buying tool for huge money, and in a year you must pay again so you can continue to use it. It's called rent then, not purchase. And worst of all - they nowhere mention fact that it will lose important features if you don't buy updates. I have AutoProPad which only costs $800, can do 90% of cars comparing to this, no Internet required and it will not turn into brick if you stop buying updates.

@FlashPerformance 4 года назад

The IM608 comes with 12 months of updates and 12 months of warranty. During that time you will have access to all the latest updates and functions. Many of the advanced key programing functions require server access. When your tool expires if you do not update you will loose that advanced functions.

Didn't you have to do the VSP thing that if you're doing keys there's a form for. It's something to do with making sure that only people who need be are getting access to security databases for doing this type of stuff. I think it may have been LSID for making keys, etc. Trying to learn this stuff which is why I'm asking.

@FlashPerformance 4 года назад

An LSID is needed if you do not have the ability to pull the pin from the vehicle. Since the Autel tool can pull the vehicle PIN an LSID is not required. On some new vehicles like Nissan 22 Digit you will need an LSID.

I'm not sure with Chevy though, and in some cars won't take old keys if they aren't erased first - not a factor with new keys. I guess if you mess with random cars often and don't feel like learning the rain dance for every car it's a good tool. Time vs money argument. Fixing cars and stuff is a good hobby.
