Thank you, Wayne.
Hi Vadimus are you able to turn off TPMS on Evo MRs?

Can you install the software remotely as well?

Trying to connect to my 2013 GSR...

Windows XP, Diagbox 5.29, sofware seems to work normally and it identifies the unit (checked it's on 4.2.4 FW). Drivers installed automatically via Windows and don't see any issues there.

But no matter what I do, I can't get it to connect to the ECU via OBD. It asks for the VIN instead of reading it, and under the Global Tests each test says "no dialogue" and says no communication from ECU. I've checked all connections a million times and tried it with ignition on and off. I disabled the auto-update FW via editing the INI.

If it is unable to read VIN it means there's something wrong with either DiagBox or cable.
Try DiagBox 7.x.

I would recommend to wait a couple of days, new database with better support for 2013 models is available and needs to be put into the program.

Or we can go on with whatever we have now, at your responsibility

No prob. Do you happen to have some good instructions for the install? My Lexia cable came with very poorly translated English from Chinese instructions.

I can wait. I am still running stock wheels and tires so no big rush. How when I know the new software is available and where can I download it from?

I will send you a link once it is available. I do not want this software to be fully available to public yet.

Which were created by very poor translation from English as they weren't written in Chinese

I'll try to find something better.

Hey Vadimus,
I'm curious about this questions as well. I remember a while back someone disabled their TPMS sensors on an MR with the Lexia unit but it caused all types of hell with other things for some reason. What are your thoughts?
