  • Tech 2

    So I recently bought a Tech 2 (Cloned Version) and it works pretty good so far. I have a couple of questions tho:
    1.) Will the Tech 2 allow me to program my 2008 Pontiac G6 2.4l? I have the TIS 2000 program that came with it and it states that it is fully functional. But on thier sites it says that you can only program vehicles up to 2007 and it says the same in the Tech 2 but on the Tech 2 owners manual, it says that the 2008 Pontiac G6 can be programmed, as well as a few others.
    2.) What code do I need to put in for my car when I check the diagnostics for it. It has a couple of letters after setting the Pontiac section and A,M, and Z all have the 2.4l option. I thought it was the 4 letter in my VIN which is Z but under that option, only the 6 speed trans is available. Mine is a 4 speed.
    3.) I just got radio controls for this and want to set them in. How would I go by doing this?
    But all in all, I love this scanner so far.

    Lucky you!
    Been interested in acquiring a Tech 2 for a while and they have recently become almost reasonably priced... Well, the clones at least.
    Where'd you purchase yours?
    Here's a step by step walk through on adding steering wheel stereo controls if you haven't already found it. *
    Note that the OP uses Z to program his convertible in the process.

    I'd be interested in hearing from GTPPrix and anyone else with actual hands on working knowledge of a Tech 2 about the possible pitfalls of a novice reprogramming a BCM with one.
