Digiprog 3 Review

[@realtormail1]

best review online for this tool... you make great videos!!!

[@jeffescortlx]

Thanks! It's unfortunate I ended up with a lesser quality unit on this one.

[@repetrepe]

well guys got one and the st01 cable was busted was giving me wrong readings and once i change the st01 problem solved and is working fine

[@leejones9848]

just got my ftdi digiprog 3 4.94, so far tried on a 2004 a4 by obd and was perfect, read 24c32 out of circuit and was perfect although in circuit I had trouble but I believe it may be the soic clip as its crap.

[@iveelthhe3385]

I just don't understand. I watched a lot of videos. Explain to me which car has the control panel disassembled and which car has been programmed with the OBD connector. For example, can the Ford f-150 since 2015 be programmed with the OBD plug? please advise me

I have been trying to find cluster programming tools. I have turned down several jobs to replace broken clusters. I have been picking up clusters from car rockers. I have finally found something that I like working with my brain lol I hope you do tool box tour.

I wouldn't recommend this programmer, but some day I'll do a tool tour.

Hello, I am looking to buy an odometer adjuster, however, not sure which one(1) to by, So I have narrow done to two(2) units. They are 1. Digi Prog3 2. Tacho Prog3 I need your held to see if one of these machine can adjust vehicles from 2011 to 2014 vehicles. I would really appreciate your sound advice. Reason for these two(2) machines is because of the cost associated with each.

[@jeffescortlx]

collin williams It depends on what part of the world your in and what manufacturer of vehicle your trying to adjust.

Sir collin can u please help me how to rollback odo meter im from indonesia

[@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic]

That looks like junk. They say you get what you pay for but no one ever says there product is junk and your going to have problems, it’s always how great they are. I say I’m paying for the product that’s being described as great and I’m getting a falsely advertised piece of junk. It’s very frustrating navigating the ocean of crap out there, if they said it’s crap or broken in the box I wouldn’t buy it.

I am in Jamaica and mostly have Japanese cars to correct there mileage. So I was looking at Digipprog3 and also Tachoprog3. Thus, I saw your post, and also observed that you used both of these machines. The vehicle YEARS range from 2008 to 2014, sometimes up to 2016, Toyota, Honda, Subaru, Mazda, Nissan, BMW, Benz, Audi and VW, yo name a few. What would be your advise on which of the two (2) diagnostic machines to be used to cluster mileage issues?

[@jeffescortlx]

Why are you correcting so many newer clusters that normally don't fail, with some evening maybe being under warranty? Do you work for a car lot that rolls back odometers?

[@jeffescortlx]

I've had luck with dodge through the obd port. I think ford also, but don't remember details, its been a long time since I've needed to correct a ford.

[@King-gq5qn]

mate i think the problem is that this device is only reading in KM as you can see therefore it shows a large number when reading miles

[@mikealkarout9555]

Can change it to miles or kms in setting ,but some clusters no matter what it reads it in miles or kms only.

Hi ! Great video best review on digiprog I've seen !! A fan now totaly, great help on mechanics. But does it work on every motorcycles Jeff ?

[@taylordiehl6594]

So three years later, what would you recommend? Do you know if these have gotten any better with software updates? Or has there been updates? Still seems like the cheapest way to correct mileage, as these are around $100.

[@jeffescortlx]

The cheapest way is to get a eeprom reader and use a edditor program on a PC, I believe tachosoft is one. Otherwise I use a old tachopro and/or x100 OBDstar for making new eeproms for busted odometer error clusters.

[@taylordiehl6594]

@@jeffescortlx I later read in the comments you returned this unit. Can the x100 make mileage adjustments? I've seen you use it in another video for adding trans temp I believe.

[@jeffescortlx]

@@taylordiehl6594 I always reccomended to keep the original cluster with the vehicle. This way you won't run into VIN trim/programming or odometer matching issues. Leave throwing in some random cluster as a very last resort if the original cluster is no longer around.

[@djvarizes]

Hi Jeff. Thanks for the video. You seem to know something about speedos, and might answer to my question. I had to change the speedo of one of my cars, a volvo v40 from 2001. The problem is that the car is 180000km, and the one I have as replacement is near 400000km. From what I've read, the chip where the km are memorized seem to be a 93c56. Digiprog infos tell that I need to reprog via chip. Now, as I have to de solder the eprom to plug to digiprog etc, can't I simply remove both eproms and simply cross them?

[@jeffescortlx]

I'm not very familiar with Volvo, but I would expect you should be able to just swap eproms if everything is the same

[@djvarizes]

@@jeffescortlx thanks for the reply I'm going to try this weekend. Let's find out :)

[@dtnel]

@@djvarizes How did just switching the eeproms go for you? Curious as if it worked?

[@djvarizes]

@@dtnel hi. Well, it has worked. Sort of.. My problem was I wanted to put the original km on the "upgraded" speedo (infocenter software). The km are OK, not the infocenter. From what I could test, the infocenter is: either installed on the same eeprom of the km, or coded and if you switch the eeprom, it doesn't show. My guess if for the 1st option, as I've crossed the eeprom, and the infocenter moved away with...

[@makomk]

That looks like the in-circuit style of EEPROM clip, it's probably not the best for out of circuit use.

[@jeffescortlx]

makomk You may be right. But it's the clip that was included with the kit. It's what the digiprog calls for, and it can only read and right off the board.

[@jeffescortlx]

makomk But now that I think of it, my testing rig has the same style of eeprom clip, but doesn't have any trouble reading from the clip off the board.

[@bryantace4463]

Good video! Could you do a review on the tacho pro?

[@jeffescortlx]

I probably wont. As it's also a little buggy, and I only need it for 03-06 GM's. For some reason it wont go lower then 6500 hours. But odometer correction works. Just requires eeprom removal. Typical Chinese tools, works just good enough that you don't want to return it.

[@bryantace4463]

jeffescortlx do you know any tool that makes corrections without eprom removal?

Well I wouldn't call the tacho pro decent. Its typical Chinese quality that "works" but is buggy. A buddy passed it on to me. But these things are all over eBay.

[@mattgray7086]

Thanks for the reply! I've found them all over eBay. Is there any difference in the tool for the price? I'm trying to get Canadian clusters in miles on 2004+ Ford and 2004+ dodge trucks. Do you know if I'll need any extra cables/adaptors?

[@jeffescortlx]

I've only used the tacho pro on GM's. I'm not sure how well it works on Ford's and dodge. Maybe the OBDstar X100 would be a better choice. I have used that on both and worked.

Jeff, is there a unit that works well with 2005-2009 Ford mustangs? I have decided to try and start instrument repair as kind of a side hobby and have several Ford mustang clusters from previous race car builds i would like to play around with. How ever I'm not finding much of anything that supports Ford mustang. Even the tacho pro 2008 does not list the Ford mustang as a supported vehicle.

[@jeffescortlx]

Sorry I don't have any useful advice for you. All I can tell you is, there isn't going to be much aftermarket 3rd party repair support for something that doesn't commonly fail and need repair.

[@shanefast4636]

do you have any suggestions for best unit for the money????? mileage correction tool.

[@jeffescortlx]

For domestic I've been using a OBDstar x100. It's not cheap at $350, but it's also a scan tool, ignition immobilizer, and can read, store and copy just about any eeprom.

[@Alfisti156]

will this work on nissan nv200?

[@Rockelement]

What happens if you dont remove the eeprom from the board?

[@jeffescortlx]

In some clusters, like the 03 and 04 full size GM's, it's physically impossible to use a clip as the VFD is over the top of it.

[@Rockelement]

I once tried to use the tacho on a e46 eeprom for correction and for some reason I blew the "chip" or whatever it was. I had to take it to someone professional to fix it. I used pretty much the exact same "clamp" you use in the video (that was in the instructions I followed). Any ideas on why I blew it?

[@jeffescortlx]

@@Rockelement you probably either installed the clip backwards or had a pinout setup for some other chip.

[@Rockelement]

Never took the chip out. And it read a milage that wasn't correct with the vechile..sort of weird. After I installed the cluster back it was all "fuu$%&" up. I followed a poor chinese "diy"..So prob not a smart idea to begin with. Do you have a manual or something that's legit that you follow when you work on cars?

[@jeffescortlx]

There are no manuals that I know of. No components level or schematics documentation that I've seen. But I don't mean block diagram wiring diagram.

motorcycle can change the mileage?

was not working .. Light was gone and i try it to fix that and i guess i fucked up .

How did you try to fix it? It would be easier to swap the eeprom's then it would be to purchase this tool and figure out how to run it.
