OBDSTAR P50 CG70 CG100 or CG100X Airbag Reset Tool

 Question:

Choosing a tool for airbag reset, OBDSTAR P50? CG70? CG100? Or cg100x? which one is better?

First of all, let’s check some table comparisons:

OBDSTAR P50 vs CGDI CG70 Airbag Reset Tool

CGDI CG100 vs CG100X vs CG70

 

OBDSTAR P50 is standalone version, don’t need to drag a PC. CGDI tools are based on PC.

OBDSTAR P50 is good tool, with very good documentation for connection to unit, have frequent upgrades.
P50 will do some high-end cars, Maserati etc. Some airbag models still requires soldering.

 

CGDI CG70 is an airbag-specific tool, it only does SRS by CAN. CG70 covers more srs than cg100/cg100x. CG100 do more mcu, eeprom and odometer. CG100X is the update version of cg100, cg100x adds more srs, eeprom and mileage models (i.e MQB NEC355XX mileage).

CG70 software is simple and easy to use. No dismantling, no welding. cg70 have a lot of airbags without soldering.

 

P50 now supports 9500+ airbag part numbers (till Nov. 2023),  CG70 has less airbag part numbers than P50.

CG100 and CG100 are good tools and do good job for Asian cars Honda Toyota on bench.

In sum, each one has a option, all good at the end.

 

 

Both obdstar and cg release regular updates. Make sure to keep the software up-to-date in order not to miss the latest airbag modules.

 

Sometimes you need more tools, if cg100 does not contain some of ECUs, cg70 or p50 will do.

 

For most airbag units is to use any eeprom and mcu programmer, like carprog, iprog, Xprog or Upa. About 80-90% its a direct eeprom programming, sometimes you will find motorola mcu like HC08 family. Some newer units have spc560 or Renesas, those are harder and need special airbag programmers to make the job.

What Tool to Read and Write Delphi MT80?

 There are some tools to read and write GM/Geely Delphi MT80/MT80.1 ECU.

Delphi MT80 ECU usually has problems car not start, No fuel injection signals, No ignition signals, it’s a common problem can be repaired with ecu tools.

The problem is the result of the data lost of the MCU, reprogramming the MCU or change a new MCU and program it will solve the problem, device such as Foxflash, Ktag, Flex, CG100 or equivalent programmers can applied to flashing the MCU. Obdii365.com collects pinouts to some devices.

1).

Top 5 Airbag Reset Tools in 2023

 Are you looking for a solution for resetting airbag crash data from cars Volvo, VAG, BMW, Mercedes and etc? Is there a universal solution or different tools/software for each cars.

Can this be done via OBD or by connecting to airbag module direct?

Here obdii365.com list top airbag reset tools in year 2023.

 

What is an Airbag Reset Tool?

An airbag reset tool is a device or diagnostic tool used to reset or clear the airbag system’s fault codes and turn off the airbag warning light or SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) light in a car. When the airbag system detects an issue, such as a sensor malfunction or a deployed airbag, it triggers a fault code and illuminates the airbag warning light on the dashboard.

An airbag reset tool connects to the vehicle’s OBD-II (On-Board Diagnostic) port, which is usually located under the dashboard. It communicates with the car’s onboard computer system to retrieve and clear the fault codes related to the airbag system. By resetting the system, the tool allows the airbag warning light to be turned off after the underlying issue has been resolved.

Resetting the airbag system should only be done after identifying and fixing the cause of the fault codes. It is important to note that using an airbag reset tool does not fix any mechanical or electrical problems in the airbag system itself. It is merely a tool to reset the system and clear the fault codes after repairs or maintenance have been performed.

Frequently update online
It has built-in crash airbag reset tool for Geely… Dong Feng… Beiqi… Fengxing… Great Wall… And many other nice never seen cars in the west atmosphere.

 

Cons:

1 year free update, require software subscription later.

some need soldering

works online only, need to access server

 

 

4.) Carprog clone

carprog is a good start.
not all airbags can be cleared by obd, alot you have to hard wire to the ic inside to read and write.

carprog clone supported airbag brand list

 

 

5). iProg clone

iprog is a universal programmer for airbag, mileage and eeprom.

Tool is cheap. Iprog plus is a good starter, you have to know how to use it, but over time it does everything, it’s always good, you have more tools just in case. Sometimes I calculate them, you have to do it yourself.

The clones are better cause you have newer software versions which are not available for the original version. 90% of dashboard and airbag calculations are good.

Which Tool to Change Ford Ranger R7F701405 Mileage?

 Ford Ranger/Raptor/F150 2019/2020 micro R7F701405 no longer uses eeprom. This type of cluster has no eeprom. Its MCU renesas. How to read data form NEC R7F701405 Spansion if need to change odometer/mileage with data of it? Which tool can do this mileage?

BK2T – NEC 70F34xx – 2012….2014
BK3T – NEC 70F34xx – 2014….2016
GK2T – NEC 70F35xx – 2016….2018
KK3T – R7F701405 – 2018….2020
LK3T – R7F701414 – 2020.

 

 

UUPS UPA: not script read R7F7XXXXX.

iProg clone: no script to read R7F7XXXXX.

X-prog: its NOT listed in xprog-m (eldb)

Xhorse VVDI Prog: No, Xhorse engineer confirmed it cannot read this mcu yet

Smelecom: Reads correct and starts to write and fails

SMOK UDS:  SMOK can do this cluster via OBD. if Smok can read the mileage but failed to write, cluster displayed Error on dash. The Smok software will tell you to switch off the engine before writing the mileage, you need to take out the key from ignition switch and wait until all lights on cluster will off, then proceed to the software to write the new mileage. it will succeed.

Enigmatool: Yes, it can do this cluster by obd.

CG100: CG100 Prog III claims this processor if it is not secured.

CG100 with BDM+4, in area Progamer, you can see R7F701405 and Diagram pin connection with BDM+4.

r7f701405 is sometimes secured, if you connect pin R7F701405 secured as this diagram and read, cg100 will give notification “not support feature”.

Which Tool to Change Toyota S6J3001LSJ Mileage?

 2018+ new Toyota RAV4/Corolla/Yaris (hybrid and not hybrid) has secured processor spansion mcu S6J3001LSJ. There is also a RH66 chip but the km data is not stored in it.

What tool allows you to adjust the mileage of Denso panels with MCU S6J3001LSJ?

Check options below:

 

1. The cheapest option will be CG100 Prog III programmer.

 

Corolla 2020- S6J3001 MCU pinout to cg100 prog

RAV4 2019-2021 S6J3001 pinout to cg100

Yaris S6J3001LSJ pinout

If need S6J pinouts for other Toyota models, open CG100 software and check.

cg100 will read, modify and write data. If failed to modify data, send original mcu data to CGDI engineer to modify manually (contact sales@obdii365.com)

The detailed procedure can be found here

Toyota Honda S6J3001 Cluster Mileage Correction with CG100
