How OBDSTAR X300M change Mazda 6 2006 mileage?

OBDSTAR X300M is a professional and universal mileage tool for all cars via OBD. This is guide for using OBDSTAR X300M to change Mazda 6 2006 mileage, very easy steps for you!

This is the original mileage of Mazda 6 2006: 152550km


Follow these steps to correct the mileage quickly:

Step1. Start OBDSTAR X300M Mileage Correction Tool, choose “Vehicles”→ “Mileage Adjustment”→ “Other Models”



Step2. Choose “Mazda”→ “M6”→ “2005-2009”




Step3. Now switch ignition on, OBDSTAR X300M will remind you to do data backup before changing mileage. (Data backup is next step) Then turn off the ignition and turn it on again.



Step4. Data Backup: Turn off the ignition and turn it on again. Wait a moment then input the name of file to save and data backup success.



Step5. Mileage Adjustment: Turn off the ignition and turn it on again. Also wait a moment for OBDSTAR X300M to read mileage, after that confirm the original mileage.




Step6. Last step!! Input the mileage you want to change to and confirm it. Turn off the ignition and turn it on again, then wait a second for mileage adjusting to complete. Now the Mazda 6 mileage is changed successfully by using OBDSTAR X300M odometer adjustment tool.


OBDSTAR EEPROM PIC adapter tested ok with X100 pro and X300 pro

New update news:

OBDSTAR EEPROM adapter is newly added with PIC adapters & cables and verified working fine with OBDstar X100 pro/ X-300PRO to read write CPU data on a part of car computer. And now it is called OBDSTAR EEPROM PIC 2-in-1 adapter. As known, the EEPROM is used to read out password from EEPROM chip and restore data.


PIC adapter workable car models (05-26-2016 update):

Initialize CPU data for immobilizer coil on FAW Wei Chi V5(PIC)

Initialize CPU data for immobilizer coil on FAW N5 (FREESCALE)

Initialize CPU data for immobilizer coil on FAW N7 (FREESCALE)

More car models are under development.


Why immobilizer coil needs to be initialized?

Take FAW Wei Chi V5 (Immobilizer coil model is 89783-52Q40) and FAW N5/N7 (Immobilizer coil model is 89783-TBA00) for example, if their keys are lost, the 4S tend to replace new immobilizer coil then match key, usually a immobilizer coil cost about $50-$85. However, our OBDSTAR PIC adapter is designed to initialize adapter without replacing immobilizer coil, you just directly match new key after immo coil initialization. Besides, PIC adapter is able to initialize immo coil for unlimited times, which will help car owner save the new immobilizer coil cost and also time cost.


EEPROM adapter workable car models and corresponding function:

Can read/write/save/restore data for following group of chips:

24C01/02/04/08/16/32,

93C46/56/66/76/86

25010/020/040/080/160/320/640/128/256

95010/020/040/080/160/320/640/128/256


Can read out IMMO code for following car models:

Beiqi E150, E130

Buick Sail, Hideo new GL8, LaCrosse after 09, Regal after 09 and Ang Kela

Cadillac SLS and SRX

Changan CM8, Yue Xiang, Zhi Xiang and Benben

Changhe

Chery SIIC Transportation and DIAS

Chevrolet Cruze and TRAX

Chrysler

Citroen Elysee

Dflz DIAS

Dfpv S3

Geely Dorsett /Vision

Great Wall Wingle (diesel)

Hafei

FAW Haima Automobile 323 and DIAS

Hawtai DIAS

Huapu

MG MG3

Jiangling Landwind

Liebao

Skoda

Volkswagen

ZNA

Zotye

Note: Need to remove EEPROM chip to read out code.


How PIC adapter work with OBDstar X-300PRO and initialize immo coil on FAW Wei Chi V5?

FAW Wei Chi V5 key lost and firstly need to initialize immo coil, the procedure shown as follows:

1.Remove immobilizer coil from ignition switch, model: 89783-52Q40

2.Take apart immobilizer coil and then connect to the PIC adapter, there are two optional methods:

(1). Directly to connect

  







(2) Take apart the chip to weld:

Take apart the 14pin chip from immobilizer coil, then weld to the NO.2 PIC adapter. (Any one of following 4 welding position is ok).

3.Connect well X-300 Pro main unit, adapter and No.2 PIC adapter, and then supply power. Press menu to enter: Function – EEPROM adapter- PIC/ Freescale – FAW- Wei Chi V5.

4.Initialization, wait until it finish.

5.After initialization, install immo coil back to the car, start to match key, procedure as follows:

Match 2 keys:

1.Insert a new key into ignition lock, wait 5 seconds (Note: just insert key to OFF position, not turn to ON position)

2.Insert the second new key into ignition lock, wait 5 seconds (Note: just insert key to OFF position, not turn to ON position)

3.Take out the second key from ignition lock, then insert one key that programmed into the ignition, quick turn on and off ignition for 5 times, immo light turn off, program done.

4.After key programming done, it needs to synchronize engine and immobilizer. Procedure as follows: connect X300 PRO to the vehicle, enter X300 pro IMMO remote match – FAW Wei Chi V5 – Engine and immobilizer synchronization – type.

5.Synchronization complete.

Done.

Real experiences with GM Tech2 clone

GM Tech2 with TIS2000 CD can diagnose and program all GM vehicles from year 1992 to 2013 include GM, SAAB, Opel, Suzuki, Isuzu and Holden. Here are some real experiences with this GM Tech2 scanner.


I work for a Gm dealership and was a little skeptical at first about this GM tech2. After receiving very quick from seller I tested it out on every platform, programming, system scans, live plot, remote functions, everything and it has matched everything my shops factory 2000 dollar Tech 2 has done. Best money I've spent on a tool in a very long time!

This GM Tech 2 clone performs exactly the same as dealership scan tool. Everything listed in the sale was there. This is obviously a knock off of the original tool but you would never know if someone did not tell you. It comes without any labels or stickers on it, but they were included in a bag ready for you to put them on the tool and accessories. I have used this tool on a 2004 Pontiac grand prix and a 2006 grand prix to perform diagnostics and set up a new body control module. I went through every screen, tried all the function tests and learn procedures. No issues with this tool at all. Cables, plugs and accessories are all of quality construction. I could not be happier with this purchase.

I have been very happy with this scanner, the cables can be a bit finicky at times, and I had to remove and reinstall the memory card several times to get a good connection on it, but have had no issues at all other than that. I have used it on 2004 Pontiac Bonneville, Saab and Chevrolet Suburban all worked well.

I was pretty skeptical when saw these clone at cheap 250$-380$. Most dealers charge a $100+ diagnostic fee just to hook theirs up to your car, what a joke. I got one English language software version with 32 MB Card, CANDI, TIS2000 and other diagnostic cables. And I hooked it up to test engine, ABS, transmission etc, stored DTCs, Freeze Frame, live data, all the test results were displayed on the large, easy-to-read backlit screen. Keeping the GM Tech 2 for half a year, no blue/blank screen or communication issue. Now the device is in good condition.


Got my GM Tech2 today, it looks and functions well for a clone. The tech2 and CANDI module worked perfect to diagnose my bad HVAC air door actuator. I have an older HP laptop running win7 and it has a serial port so has no problem to install software. Time will tell how this works out.

The tech2 clone has done everything I have used it for. I have check and cleared codes including freeze frame data. I used it to test injectors on my friends NOVA 5.3 swap. It allowed me to pulse each injector so we knew they were not clogged.

Still no problems with this GM Tech2 clone. I was able to use SPS programming to update the theft module OS in my Chevrolet TrailBlazer SS. And I found this tool can be used on OBD1 cars. I tried it to diagnose my friend’s 1994 Pontiac Trans Am, it worked!
