SVCI J2534 Program Ford J1850 PWM PCM Module

 Obdii365.com received new feedback from customer:  ” I can set reprogramming voltage to 18V on PIN 13 and do reprogramming for a Ford J1850 PWM vehicle using the SVCI J2534 passthru adapter.  This is just as expected. ”

 

So is it worth buying the j2534 cable?

What’s good of svci j2534?

  • Works with bunch of manufacturer’s software, like Ford’s IDS, Mazda IDS, FDRS, Toyota TIS, JLR SDD, ELMconfig, Forscan etc.
  •  Works with official latest ids software
  • Online software & firmware update
  •  Installation is very easy with the included loader
  • Cheap

 

What’s bad of svci j2534?

  • Sometimes it is instable and sometimes disconnect from car.
  •  It will not program older vehicles (seemed has been fixed in new upgrade).  for the older ones you need the vcm2.

In sum, this device pays for itself.

 

 

FLY Technician has solved the J1850 PWM protocol module programming bugs. So it will reprogram J1850 modules without issue.

 

What you need: 

SVCI J2534 diagnostic interface

Ford IDS software and QuickLoader

PCM  module to be installed

 

Free download Ford IDS V120.01 and IDS QuickLoader

 

Tips on software installation:

1. Install latest ids 120
2. Install ids_vci
3. Install SVCI-J2534-Ford-Quickloader
4. Insert svci2534 to your car obd2 port
5. Run icon SVCI-J2534-Ford-Quickloader (internet connection should be ON)

All of those installer packages you can find in download section from flyobd website (check download link above.)

Other unbiased reviews on SVCI J2534:

1.I just did a PCM/TCM Module programming on a 2014 fiesta with the svci j2534 today. Honestly I was surprised how well it worked. I would suggest a usb Y cable. I was having issues before because my laptop USB port did not supply enough current.

2. svci j2534 work good i tested many times program keys, sync immo , remove speedlimiter etc. and work OK

3. For me it works well with newer vehicles. It does freeze and disconnect sometimes. But I’ve never had it brick a computer. I only use it for module programming.  So it might be annoying if you use it to diagnose and it keeps freezing and you have to restart IDS. It will not program older vehicles. Installation is very easy with the included loader. But if you can find a good quality clone I would rather go for that. But comparing this to the cheap quality clones around the same price I think this is better.
4.  Its a very good tool. Svci j2534 works fine. Have been using it for a year now.
5. I’ve done PCM/TCM on Kuga 2015 2.0L Tdci with IDS 116 no problem.
6. i use this daily with no problem at all .but it is slower than vcm2. but it does some things better than vcm.
7. I have this tool and it’s working very well. Very fast on programming and diagnosis. I recommend!
