Don't hold your breath, they told me 6 months ago that the issue would be resolved soonOriginally Posted by moprblms
It's awesome progress for VCM scanner is coming a long, but has there been any progress on VCM editor? I know these things are waayyy outdated and there probably isn't too much demand for it. If there are no plans for support, or it isn't looking good, please let the few of us know so we can make other arrangements so we can tune these. Thanks for the good work guys!
Yes, currently mustangs are tuneable back to 99, not sure on others, but eecv support is available, does require mpvi2 though, or nguage
I HAVE TUNED A FEW OF THEM

Yea, I saw the support for most of the 2 valve Mustangs listed. I have an MPVI2 that I bought mostly for the scanner capability, but have done some tuning (still learning over here). The trouble is there is an outrageous amount of truck EEC-V vehicles in my area. I personally own two. I have several people waiting to have very minor tuning done to theirs, myself included. One would assume that since the Mustang PCM's have been figured out, the trucks shouldn't be that much different, but I can't say that for sure. I really hope they start support soon.
They are close, ive had some convos about it, with different strategies, maurader etc. Its coming

just got credits for a 2005 fordthunderbird, hp cant tune EARLY FORDS , when can you guys catch up on the EEC-v anyupdate of when???Bad news for anyone with a Ford vehicle equipped with the EEC V computer. VCM Scanner won't support this PCM for data logging. Soon after recording the data stream will stop and the MPVI2 will disconnect. HP Tuners is aware of the problem but there's no ETA on when it will be rectified. Should've gotten SCT I guess
Hi Michael,
Thanks for sending this information in. I've consulted our engineers and they are aware of this issue and are currently working on resolving this. This issue only affects the EEC-V controller which happens to be the controller in your Mustang. I don't have an ETA currently as to when we will have this resolved but it is currently being worked on.

So I've read on another post hpt seems to think it's an electrical issue. I dont think it is, I wanted to investigate just incase if there was a generic issue either from a circuit board causing interference on the scp bus or another issue causing noise on the bus lines and shy of using very expensive equipment I decided to disconnect everything. So far I've removed every fuse in the car that doesnt run the pcm or cluster and the only modules still connected is the pcm(obviously), cluster, ccrm and fuel pump module. All the grounds have been check and tested for resistance. I'll have to disable pats to disconnect cluster but that's my next approach. With all that done it's still glitching, I dont know how much further I'll investigate until I give up
Fix is in the newest MVPI2 firmware update 3.0.35 which can be found in the newest beta build.
It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...
A wise man once said "google it"
Just saw the email. Will try it soon...
Daily Driver= 2003 BMW 330xi
Weekend Cruiser= 2009 Pontiac G8 GT (Vararam, TSP LS3 N/A Stage 1, OBX, CTS-V converter, MagnaFlows w/ J-Pipes, 160 t-stat)
Project Car= 1991 Chevrolet Camaro RS (LQ4 w/ Gen 4 Rods, LS3 heads, turbo...)
Truck= 2007 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT LY5 4x4
I tried it last week (inadvertently before it was announced) and it worked for me! Granted, I only tried a few minute-long log as I was just setting up coolant temp fan settings, but no crashes. Crossing fingers...
If this works for others who have had problems, THANK YOU IN ADVANCE
I have uploaded the newest beta. I tried to get my firmware updated but it still shows mine to be the 3.0.30 version. I tried resyncing my mpvi2, gathering info which shows I still have the older version. Not sure where else I can tried to get this to do a firmware update. I am trying to log a 03 cobra and the scanner has been giving me problems.
same here trying to update to 3.0.35 and its only showing 3.0.30
2003 Zinc yellow Svt Cobra
Mods: x pipe/cat back, BBK CAI, 2.8 upper, 91 tune
Connected to vehicle and tried to resync and still didnt update to 3.0.35. Beta version available for download is 4.7.704. Is that the most current beta verson?
I'm new to HP tuners, have a brand new MPVI2 w/pro(just got it this week). I'm turning an 03 mustang. I have tried both the new release 4.8 and the Beta 4.9. Firmware was updated with the 4.8 release. Based on these comments, it sounds like the logging is better than it was before but still not great. Sometimes it will log without an issue and other times it will stop and totally drop the connection to the car. Sometimes it will log, then freeze, then log, then freeze, then log, rinse and repeat. This is with the USB cable. I tried the Bluetooth connection briefly, it didn't make a difference(probably worse). When I first started using it, it worked great, but now it is glitching more. Sometimes I need to resync the interface if it just won't connect to the car. Repolling pids after flashing an updated tune helps.
I have an elm, x3, and qh. I might try data logging with those. Even with the glitchy data logging, I'm a lot happier with HPT than the other setup I was using.
