Hi
In this video I will be opening my recent acquired Mazda VCM 2.
I bought it as an "A grade quality", let's see if that is what I got.
Clone tools, can be cheap and affordable, but some are really low quality... sometimes it's worth to search and pay a bit more for a better quality one...
Follow me on this video to see how the internals of a good VCM 2 might look like.

Hope you enjoy the video.
Any questions or comments put them below.
Like always, thank you for watch!
I have learn a lot from you may God bless you I was drinking you
100£ is really a very good price for that tool. It is very important especially when use it for flashing or programming modules. Except that it can be flashed to different firmware and if it isn't A grade quality it may be blocked and can't be used any more...
Aldi Shuli
Absolutely correct!
Hi my friend how are you hope everything is fine how is your family yes I'm watching you from Ghana and I have been following you since

Thank you for watching!
I went to the website you recommend I looked for the VCM2 for Ford and only saw one with the single board not the double board with all the chips. I wonder if they stopped offering it
Possibly...
Or look elsewhere, see if you find the one you are looking for...
👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing this with us. The guy I buy from seems to always have good things for me when I order. The only upset I see coming is the new import taxes aka: Trade War.
I don't know how many I have resold but I can tell you I have had only 2 have issues and one was just an out of place SD card. More tool videos would be cool.
Once again Thank You. Thumbs UP.

Hi
Thank you for watching...
There is indeed more coming... stay tuned!
👍👍👍
Cool and Thank You.I gave the banner a click and rang the bell.
Thanks. Any idea what the SD card is used for? Also you made my finger nails hurt pulling the covers off.
I have done many of them and every time they seem to get harder to remove. The reason I remove the cover is to roll back the firmware.
I have found for what I use them with IDS v86 does an exlant job. Thank You for the link. There price is in line with what I pay.
How can you tell a genuine one?
I would love to see more of this.

Thank you for watching!

Hi
I do not have that tool... yet...
Thank you for watching!
Something I forgot to ask you. What is the SD card used for?
Thanks!
I believe to store some data...
👍
@@LMAutoRepairs I had hoped that you knew what data. I was guessing more or less the same.
Things like recordings and saved scans are what come to mind.
@Jordan Colton Thanks for clearing that up.
Very good video and would like to see more like this. Thanks
Mark Eastwood
Thanks Mark... there is more on the way...
So you had that for some time now! How about a Video on how it works!! What %%% of Cars, Trucks, SUV can you scan? Does it provide complete access? Key Programming Security and such?
Will see what I can do...
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
@@LMAutoRepairs Does it work?
@@ralfsautomotive

Hi Colin...
It looks like I will have to...
Thank you for watching!
Hi could you give us a link to your tool supplier please fella ?
Is in the description Colin...
This one is A grade so it will not damagaing the ecu right? Because the element on the board is many of them and also the second board and tons of chips ?
It is better quality, and supports most if not all the functions...
Thank you for watching!
LM Auto Repairs Thanks for your great information
LM Auto Repairs the reason I asked you about damaging because someone said to me that the elm adapter might hurt the ecu circuit it is better to use the genuine vcm from ford but the price is too high I couldnt reach that so I looked for the best cloned vcm
@@CIAGunzazaTV
Nothing wrong with using an elm cable with forscan...
I use it sometimes...
LM Auto Repairs hmm I always use it still no side fx right now no shorting of circuit
Nice video to sharing,
It will be very usefull to open the tools and compare with other one's that also have the same tool
Ps:you forgot to mention in your discription the link from where you bought or buy your tools::-)

Not really... some of this units can be used for Ford and Mazda...
The software, albeit identical, is not interchangeable...
