SAE J2534 is a standard for communications between a computer and a vehicle. Your competitors are making money repairing these cars by J2534 reprogramming. These problems plague many cars that are no longer under warranty. Studies indicate that 7 out of 10 vehicles on the road require a calibration update.Īuto Manufacturers are constantly updating controller software to solve problems such as false DTCs, hesitation, rough idle, emissions problems, hard starting, poor fuel economy and others.
Over 100 million cars on the road today support J2534 reprogramming. Maybe you thought only cars still under warranty are being reprogrammed and it’s just not worth your while. Isn’t reprogramming just for cars that are still under warranty so only dealers will need this capability? Many of the Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) issued by automobile manufacturers require reprogramming with the latest software updates to repair problems that are occurring with vehicles on the road even after their warranties have expired. New controllers replaced in a vehicle require programming to match the exact specifications and option list on the car being repaired.ģ.
Automobile manufacturers are constantly making changes to their controller software – making cars more efficient, fixing problems that have been discovered, fine tuning components and systems, updating cut points as cars age, solving problems such as rough idle and hard starting, repairing emissions related problems and many others.Ģ. (Also known as reflashing, flashing, programming or reconfiguring.)ġ. Reprogramming is the process of replacing the existing software in a vehicle controller with new software by electronically transferring approved calibration files from a vehicle manufacturer’s website.
