Hello, Thanks for the video. If you buy the PCE02 box, do you have access to all the information (faults) on the engine, or are there some restrictions (need for a software key) if you're not a reseller? Thank you very much in advance for your reply.

Hello. I don't know much about this subject. My question is, will I have any problems if I update my EP8 engine and other components via the E-TUBE application?
Hi Guys, Thanks for the great info.I have an SC-E5003 fitted as standard to my Merida 5000 E160, EP8 motor, can I fit and use the SC-EM800 with the SC-E5003. Does the SC-E5003 connect to the motor wirelessly or does it need a wire connection? How would I configure the system to work with the SC-E5003? Any help would be great.
Hi. Not sure I understand. The SC-EM800 will work with the EP8. Both displays connect by wire. Most likely the existing cable will work for the EM800. I believe the SC-E5003 is using the new cable. If I'm mistaken, there are adapters available to make the EM800 work. I've never tried connecting two displays simultaneously, if that's what your considering. I wanna say it won't work, but who knows (:
Is it possible to change the wheel size with this app/adapter? My bike still thinks it is running on 29'', even though I swapped them to 27.5'' ... so speed and distance is incorrect all the time ...
@@EMTBVideos too bad ... I was thinking of setting my next bike up for mullet with the option to go 29/29 to go "touring" and mullet for "bashing"/park ...

Excellent review, thank you. Just had E034 on my ep8, struggled to update firmware but finally got sorted. Some on-line say you cannot recover from a trashed firmware update and need this gizmo(or dealership) to hard wire in.... ;-)
Apparently I need a EW-AD305 adapter to go from the old style EW-SD50 to the new, smaller EW-SD300. A short length of the EW-SD300 cable would be useful also. This took way too long to figure out.
Was able to reflash with Android phone, finally. Killed all Blue Tooth pairings, put in airplane mode, only turned on the minimum and then shut it off and it restored on the first try. Back on the trails, yay!
Just an available port at the back of the display. Depending on what motor and display you've got, the PC02 plug might not fit without an adapter from old to new type plug.
@@EMTBVideos Thank you for your reply but God, no surely they haven’t changed the connection. I’ve now sourced a PCE1 to try and I have an SC-6100 head unit, I hope it fits or I’m stuffed.
@@EMTBVideos Yes, I believe the E6100 motor came out before the EP8. I’ll find out soon enough whether it works, if I remember I’ll let you and your viewers know.
Short update, the PCE1 had 2 cables and one of them fitted the SC-6100 head unit fine. The firmware rewrite went perfectly smoothly and there is no way I would try to do this again with the Wireless/Bluetooth option on a mobile phone again. The wired option was just so much more reliable, faster and simpler, just a shame that the black box to do it doesn’t come cheap.

I am very curious, Shimano is replacing my EP8 as the one way sprague was starting to pile up, and the dealer is telling me that this box is needed to program the new motor. Is that legit? I feel they are trying to get one over on me. Or do I just pay the $100.00? Thanks!
This sounds strange to me. Is this a Shimano Steps shop? Every Shimano Service Center should have this tool, and they need a higher level of access. The end user haven't got access to all the functionality. OEM level access is needed to set the motor angle. That could be done before the motor is shipped though, I guess.
@@EMTBVideos Sorry I may not have been clear, yes they have the tool, and are going to charge me $100.00 CND for them to be able to set up the motor. Or if they could get a tool to sell they would sell the tool to me. Either way, seems like I am getting hosed. Apparently Shimano is giving them, and therefore me a totally virgin motor.
I would assume so. I don't know of any other hardware for the Shimano steps+di2. There is a PCE01 too that might work, but it's not produced any more afaik.
