    I'll be at his house this weekend starting the tune on his '06 vette, and we'll see if he even wants to pursue the focus. In which case i'll locate the pcm and get some #'s off of it.
    I can have you read it with 2.25 but you'd likely need to go through each and every controller until you find the correct one
    - I'm still learning this whole thing so be gentle....i'm assuming 2.25 is the newest revision....but how do you go through every controller till you find the correct one? I assumed it was plug, read and then play. After reading this I'm now thinking its not just plug 'n' play, but that's there's also the option to change some settings in EDITOR and hook to more controllers?

    Its plug and play for vehicles we support, for oddball applications where we don't exactly know which pcm its using you'll need to try reading it as the pcm type you think or know it is. ie I know a 2010 camaro v8 uses an E38 pcm as does our software so it will read it as such, I don't know what pcm the focus uses(nor do you) so at that point its a guessing game, could be copperhead, could be green oak, could be black oak, could be spanish oak, could be bosch, could be some other.

    Bottom line is our software is plug and play with the exception of oddball applications.
    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    AFAIK, all of the 2011+ 2.0 and under engines are running Bosch units. 2012 and older 2.5s run Oaks.

    If its an Oak, we have it covered. We should have Bosch PCM support soon for the Fords.

    Eric, i know you said support for the focus st would be a long shot, but let me ask you because i was able to connect the scanner in 2.24, and read some basic parameters.

    Would i need to add some sort of support for ford vehicles to be able to read Ford pids? Or what i was able to read with the current 2.24 version is all im going to get?

    Ill email support to get 2.25 if ill be able to read ford pids with it.

    When i bougth hpt i think i just licensed the thing for gm vehicles only.

    Thanks one more time.

    Focus ST will be added, but it is a ways out. Entirely different processor in those.

    The 2.24 scanner is only scanning generic pids, it will work on most anything. There is not a 2.25 scanner yet. It won't be long though.

    Are you still accepting reads from the cars mentioned in the first post? Just picked up an '05 Crown Vic Police that I am going to use as a swap into my '75 F100 and support for it would be awesome! Let me know if you still need reads and I will get it there!

    comm: scp32
    strategy: ujahas3

    Got this by plugging in the SCT handheld flash device. Hope this helps. It said it was unable to locate the VCM. Do I need any kind of beta software or is this to be expected if it is not any type of ecu that it recognizes?
