Autel KM100 Program F-150 2019 Key with Active Alarm

 Problem:

Using Autopropad G2 and Autel KM100 on a F-150 2019 Keyed ignition.
No keypad on door.
Active alarm.
After waiting 10-15 min, alarm beeps twice, then when i add a key the alarm starts beeping again with a note (security authentication failed).
Tried All keys lost.
Tried it under type 10 2017 fusion.
Tried under smart key.
No matter what i do, after the 2 beeps the alarm goes on again.
Any ideas what can be done to program a key?

 

Autel KM100 Program Ford F-150 2019 Key with Active Alarm

 

 

Solution:

Here is the tip to program Ford F-150 key with an active alarm.

Common occurrence when all key lost even if no keypad. After you get the double honk, you can always them try the add key, if that fails, do the 10 minute wait time, and then try all keys lost, sometimes that works best.

If add key failed, use Autel all keys lost option.

Put screw driver on the door latch wait 10 minutes when you hear the twice alarm, hit ok.

It will read security and then the alarm will go off again.

Wait for twice alarm them hit ok. It will program the keys since it reads the security first time.
Keep in mind that you have to connect to a running car.
Door latch has to be closed with screw driver until the programming done.

If you have done the screw driver, when it beeps again let it be and wait for 2 beeps again.

Don’t disconnect anything wait for it and then hit ok it will go into programming mode right away.

 

 

OBDSTARXhorse and Auto prog pad also have Ford AKL adapter to bypass active alarm. You can also take the Ford FDRS.  Even with frds you have to wait the 10 minutes but it goes through from first try.

 

 

User feedback:

Solved with KM100.  Sit in the car the whole 10 minutes, skip the open door to power up. I used the KM100 and it worked fine when the Ford was in alarm.

Which Tool to Program 2023 Subaru BRZ All Keys Lost?

 Here is the user working experience on Toyota GR86/Subaru BRZ 2023-2025 smart key programming.

No bypass cable for smartbox.

Program 2023-2025 Subaru BRZ GT86 All Keys Lost 1

 

Credit to Mr. Marji.

Tried it as a Subaru nothing works. Techstream Will not even recognize the vehicle when the ignition is off. The ignition has to be on there is no emergency flashers no opening the door or closing the door will work nothing will work.

The customer provided smart box key and steering lock. Trying to program the existing steering lock module and it keeps failing so we had to install the one that came with a smart box and the key and even then the vehicle still wouldn’t start because you need to program another key and register the steering lock module and register ECU.

Program 2023-2025 Subaru BRZ GT86 All Keys Lost 2

You cannot bench it there is no eeprom option anywhere, you cannot bypass it, there is no bypass cable for this Smart box. It’s a Subaru you cannot get tis to communicate unless ignition is on.

 

If you’ve never done this vehicle now you know.

No one was able to communicate with vehicle because the ignition does not turn on, The only way to turn the ignition on is to purchase Smart box with the key already married to it and the steering lock module

Step 1: replace smart box and steering lock module
Step 2: turn ignition on
Step 3: login with your techstream account
Step 4: Enter your VSP ID and passcode
Step 5: program a second key
Step 6: register CU steering lock
Step 7: put everything back together and get paid.

 

There is no other way to do this vehicle if all keys lost.
Only Mongoose can communicate. The J2534 from Autel IM608 kept failing when doing security functions.

This vehicle has no all keys lost procedure in Utility menu in techstream. It has immobilizer registration function and it will not approve unless you have a working key because it asks for owner confirmation when you’re adding a key and if you Don’t have a working key that’s how the procedure works.

How to Configure Godiag ENET Cable for DTS Monaco?

 How to set up Godiag GT109 ENET cable and other ENET DoIP cables with Mercedes Benz DTS Monaco engineering software?

 

You need to connect the ethernet cable to your computer socket and OBD to the car.

 

Use Godiag ENET Cable with DTS Monaco 1


Then check adapter settings.
Run DTS Monaco software (take example of DTS 8.16)

 

Select Administrate and manage DTS projects

 

Use Godiag ENET Cable with DTS Monaco 2


Check if you already have that settings.

 

Interface name: ENET

Bus System Interface: D-PDU API
D-PDU API Version: Berner and Mattner Systemtechnick GmbH GDPM_UNITY_FOR_DS_8_16_015
Module Type: MVCI_ISO_13400_DOIP
Vendor Module Name: —-
Cable: CABLE_PART_F_ECOM

– Physical links
IEE_802_3: Ethernet 1

Use Godiag ENET Cable with DTS Monaco 3 Use Godiag ENET Cable with DTS Monaco 4 Use Godiag ENET Cable with DTS Monaco 5

Another configuration works too.

Bus System Interface: D-PDU API
D-PDU API Version: Softing AG EDIC_D_PDU_API_xx_xx_xxx (any version)
Module Type: MVCI_ISO_13400_DOIP_Collection
Vendor Module Name: —-
Cable: Ethernet_Cable 

 Physical links
IEE_802_3: Ethernet 1

Don’t forget to save any changes and we are ready to proceed.

 

Now you can flash modules (head unit, HU5 etc) with the ENET cable.

 

 

Enet cable or Tactrix passthru for DTS Monaco? Which one is faster? And what’s the difference?

Enet connects via DOiP connection (separate wires directly from OBD port to Multimedia) and it’s faster. Especially fast flashing. And only few ECUs (depends on car). All other things like coding could be made by OpenPort or any other J2534 adapter.

PG4 is based on smart phone via Powergate App, easy to use on Android and iOS system.

New powergate 4 supports virtual recoding and reading.

You can also access Cloud.

 

What’s Cloud?

 

alientech cloud

 

 

Thanks to the Cloud, the Powergate Manager handles files with great ease. Indeed, they can associate the same modified (encrypted) file with multiple users if the original file matches one already present in the database. This means that different Users can benefit from a single modification.

Additionally, the Cloud provides an online storage space where all the details of the modified files and associations with the original files are kept. If automatic file association is active, the Cloud automatically matches the modified files to the originals read or downloaded from the Alientech Database. This ensures that the User can receive the modified files on their Powergate without any intervention.

Finally, another advantage of the Cloud mode is the ability to add and sell new files at a later time, making the system extremely flexible and customizable according to the specific needs of the customer.

How to Code BMW F20 F30 TPMS using E-sys

 BMW E-sys coding tutorial: how to Code out BMW F20/F30 TPMS back to RPA or RFA.

 

 

To code for no TPMS do the following.

Start the Car engine and leave running throughout

Connect to your car with BMW ENET cable

 

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 1

 

Go to Expert Mode Tab on left and click on Coding.
Press READ in the top box in the coding screen and then Save when it’s loaded. Call it something like Car FA with TPMS.

 

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 2

 

Go to Esys Data folder on you PC and find the folder FA and make a copy of that file and rename one of them Without TPMS. You should have two files now.

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 3

Go back to E-sys and the Editors and Viewers tab and click on FA Editor.

In the top box where it says “File Name” Click on the button with three dots on the right of that text box and open the file you renamed “Without TPMS”.

Right click on the folder FA that appears and Calculate FP
More folders will appear on the right and you can now change the FA.

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 4

Expand all the folders by clicking on the little + signs (not header) until you see a folder that says SALAPA Element. click on the folder and your order codes will appear in the bottom box.

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 5

Literally go into the SALAPA box at the bottom and delete 2VB (and the comma) and press the little thing that looks like a door with a left arrow in yellow in the right of SALAPA box. (If there is
something wrong there is a red box round the SALAPA box.)

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 6

Press the save (Disk) icon at the top toolbar of Esys

 

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 7

 

Saving the FA back to the car is not completely necessary (This next bit in VCM)

Go to the Expert Mode Tab and click on VCM (You may or may not get a box appear saying there is a file open in the FA-Editor Just press Yes here.)
About two thirds of the way down you will see a box that says “Vehicle Order” with tabs that say File, Master and Backup.
To the right of the box within that says File Name: click on the button with three dots and open your file marked as “Without TPMS”

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 8

folders will appear in the top box. Again, Right click on the folder “FA” and Calculate FP
The vehicle profile will be filled in the next box.
Go back to the Vehicle Order box and click on the “Master” tab.

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 9

You are now about to write back to the car the new vehicle order back to the car.
Press “Write FA FP” that should only take a second.

 

If you didn’t save the FA to the Car above this is where you start back.

You now have to VO code the ECU’s
In the Expert Mode box go to Coding.
If the top box is populated (Vehicle order) make sure it’s your “Without TPMS”. if not, just press LOAD and load the file in.
When you’ve loaded the correct file Right Click on FA folder and click Activate FP.

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 10

Over to the right you will see a box called “SVT Actual”
In that box click on “Read SVT (…”Save this file for a backup (Save button in the same box)

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 11

 

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 12

 

All your ECU’s will appear in the Big SVT box
(You may not Have NBT as this is ProNav You may have HU..Something and KOMBI is black panel display)
To VO code the ECU’s Scroll down to the ECU’s in the List I gave “DSC NBT ICM KOMBI”
Right click on the yellow folder of the first ECU (DSC) Not the CADF file and press “Code”

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 13

Repeat this for the other ECU’s If all goes well you should see this and the words: “Abarbeitung beendet” – finished processing

Disable BMW F20 F30 TPMS with E-sys 14

You will get errors about DTC failure, ABS failure, RDC failure and the clock on the black panel display will need resetting to the correct time.
But that’s it, you’re done! Disconnect and turn the engine on and off to clear spurious warnings.

 

On some US/CAN F30 / F20 it may be necessary to remove fuse #132 found in the rear fusebox in the boot / trunk.

 

As a side note , you can skip writing the FA to the car and do the VO coding alone.

The advantage of writing it though is that if the dealer does an update the car will be coded without the option you removed from the FA so your tpms decoding will stay, else it will get wiped out as the dealer will code the car with the options specified on the FA.
