Saab Cars - Tech2 For Dummies - Episode #9 - Security Access

[@paulgwizdala7768]

Great video series. Bought a tech2 clone and this video helped me a lot to get the security access for my 2009 Saab 93 convertible. Struggled before seeing this. It is a great feeling to be able to set options that I want or even to be able to try different configurations. Thanks for posting.

[@TechCars]

Thanks for watching. Glad I could help. 😁👍

[@fuhishva]

Thanks for the video. I managed to get security access using VirtualBox with Windows XP and TIS2000. Tech2 was connected to PC through an Aten UC232A USB-serial adapter using USB passthough.

[@junkman6456]

"What was your experience'". Also the old 9-3 9-5 need a subscription for sps- access. 1998 to 2003 models. I had a Tech2 but it was the worst nightmare i had because this clones miss some electrical features the original have built in. I tried to change some setting on even both the models but for the auto-lock feature both models required sps-access. And the chinese clones and their (stolen) software can't provide it. So i ended on a Autel MaxiSys D907. And it works flawless. Extra subscription required.

[@JMCortinax]

Hi, not had chance to watch the whole video yet, so I apologise if you've explained this ~ I just have a quick question. Isn't there two types of security access? 1) You have to type the VIN number and gain security access for each individual car you wish to program. 2) Full security access that lets you program any car. I've already worked out this first option but can't find out how to get the unlimited security access. TIA

[@TechCars]

I havent managed to get secutiy access 2. Maybe you need to subscribe and use global tis for all model years?

[@PeterChomanic]

It usually is recommended to plug power cable to the port on the communication cable for Tech2 and not directly to the Tech2 instrument (the VCI part of it) due to possible problems with VCI. Not sure why it is so, it was just recommended to me by multiple people working with Tech2 for years (the original equipment).

[@TechCars]

Good feedback. I have never had an issue with this. You mean 12v in the rj11 connector?

[@PeterChomanic]

@@TechCars no no, if you check, the black cable that you plug the OBD adapter to it, has also a hole for electrical connector (in tech2 you get lighter cable, battery clamps cable or that house-plug cable). I was advised to use this hole to plug electric charge to tech2 so it's the closest way to resemble having charge from OBD, instead of plugging 12V directly to tech2 body. I was not fully explained why, but the advice sounded really serious, maybe at the old days when this equipment was used in official workshops, there existed some reason for it or advice from people repairing faulty tech2 or what.

[@TechCars]

Ahhh yes I've seen that connector. Thanks for the advice. I will start using that instead. Don't want to destroy it.

[@reginaldigweike4002]

@@PeterChomanic Hi, tech 2 was made with these options to power it, why don't you have a valid reason not to use the port on the body of the tech 2? Seems lame.

[@PeterChomanic]

@@reginaldigweike4002 well, asi i said. Not sure why. But even people who repaired tech2 when had electrical issues told me that. Probably some route on the board is weaker or so?

[@geecrawdad]

I enjoy your videos greatly. I want to ask if you are sure about the 2009-2012 models requiring GlobalTIS. Just today I programmed a key for a 2010 9-3 Sport (9440) and after making the request to add a key, Tech2 said to connect with TIS2000. I used GlobalTIS and received Security Access 1 but I still wonder if TIS2000 will work. Thank you.

[@TechCars]

I don't belive TIS2000 is going to work. It will try, but it's not going to get security access I'm afraid.

Do you need a Dongle to unlock security access on a 2008 9-3 using Tis2000 ?

[@TechCars]

Nope. No dongle needed. 👍👍

[@PapaWilk]

Is security access a one time thing for your vehicle? Or do you need to plug the device into a laptop for each separate "security-sensitive" function you want to do with a tech 2 on your vehicle?

[@TechCars]

If you're just using the tool with one vehicle it will remember that VIN for the next time. If you use different cars you have to request security access again!

[@Gediminasas]

With GlobalTIS, mine somehow worked only once. Afterwards Tech2 has forgotten it. If I go to SPS section on Tech2 it displays different VIN number

[@mossadegan]

Hi, is it possible to run globaltis for example 9-3ng -06 or is just working whit -08 and forwards. Just starting to learning tech2, love this channel. It’s great /Richard

[@TechCars]

Hi Richard. Thanks for the kind words. Yes you can use Globaltis for older Saab's as well. I just like to use the separate app TIS2000. The other one is a bit laggy in the web browser since it's using Java, but that's what you have to use if you have a 2009 and up. Good luck with your tech2 :)

[@TechCars]

Hi. The VIN showing in TIS2000 can be a VIN from a previous request that was not done to 100%. Maybe that's the case? Also, the communication issues are very often related to the RS232 to USB converter as you can see in my episode #10 of Tech2 for dummies. Thanks for watching!

[@grigoriy6516]

Hello! Thank you for the video. Can the Tech2 have security access to multiple vehicles? Or is one Tech2 for one car? I'm trying to do a CIM swap from an '05 9-3 Linear to an '05 9-3 Aero. I am using a Tech2 clone from China, and I've been able to "remove" the CIM from the Aero using the Tech2 clone. However, I could not "remove" a CIM from two other Saabs I tried ('04 Linear and '05 Linear). Each time Tech2 says to use TIS 2000, I've used TIS 2000 or GlobalTIS, and the TIS programs told me security access type 1 was granted, but once connected to the cars ('04 and '05 Linear), Tech 2 said to use TIS 2000 again. I'm wondering if this is an issue with all Tech2 tools, or just the clones from China. Thank you in advance for your help!

[@TechCars]

Hi. The Tech2 can have security access to multiple vehicles. That's my experience. I've been using mine on several NG9-3's. It's usually a new vehicle everytime. I don't know how many VIN's it can store on the card. Maybe it's related to a write error, when the Tech2 tries to save the new VIN it can't.. And then it doesn't remember it when connected to the car again.. A bit strange yes. Do you have access to another PCMCIA card?

[@grigoriy6516]

@@TechCars Hello! Thank you for the reply! No, I only have one PCMCIA card. I thought about writing a new BIN file to it, but then I might mess something up and lock myself out of security access to the Aero (or all Tech2 functinality, I don't know). I got some feedback from other Saab enthusiasts and they tell me that I can just physically disconnect the CIM from the junkyard car and then use the Tech2 to add it to my Aero. It appears that the remove function is for the benefit of other control modules in the car, not for the module (in this case, CIM) that is actually removed. Other modules must have updated bus lists - they must know that a part is missing so there is no conflict when the used module from another car is added. At this point this is only my hypothesis - do you know if this is actually the case?

[@TechCars]

@@grigoriy6516 I've never heard that you can use a CIM that isn't divorce, but maybe that's possible. It would be great, I guess you would need atleast one key that belongs to it.. Maybe someone else can pitch in here with that experience?

I'm running everything in a virtual XP machine and everything in there is old ;-) Take a look here and see if you can find anything that can help you forward: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1vg04-wACHlzdp1Ku6enI-EMB43s6IgQB?fbclid=IwAR14MRL-q6f2DGEsmn95EWAIPjQViH5ckNLmOzovILIc__gq2I7BAOQRY7Y

I double checked my Java version in the XP virtual machine and it's version 6, update 12, build 1.6.0_12-b04

@@TechCars thanks for the info, i noticed yours contain the saab bin files, 136, 146, 148, I'm running a 148 card on my tech 2, why do i need the others? Also do i have to have these files in a particular folder in my xp machine? Also why do i need a card writer file on my xp machine?

[@TechCars]

@@reginaldigweike4002 That drive is not mine actually. It's just a good place to find things :) The different PCMCIA files are somehow for different models, however in the 146 for example you could find the latter models as well. If you're doing 98-2012 my guess is that the 148 is the one to use. I've only used the 146 before I got the 148. The files is supposed to be on a PCMCIA card that you put inside your Tech2! That's why there's a card writer application as well. But for that you need a PCMCIA card writer..

@@TechCars hej i have some trouble to find and buy a new pcmia card! I try to get security access and i trampade i klaveret så nu behöver jag ett nytt. Have a laptop HP with XP and i am denied security access no matter what i try. Swedish living in France left car 9-3 2008 to a garage to marry a trailer module to it! Then i got a clone to start to do and learn myself but now i have runned out of ideas! And when i got the car back parking lights rear blinked rear wiper did not work and it drains the battery in a night, and windows live their own life one window can be down in the morning when i arrive to the car. But most important is the card where to find one have tried Amazon and now after 3 months still not delivered Best Regards [e-mail]

@@wanis76 I've been working day and night here. Sorry for not responding earlier. Did something happen with the trailer module connector? Ground issue? +12V issue? Is the trailer module completely disconnected? Have you checked the connectors and wires? BR Markus

Hi, Im facing one problem. When Im connecting security access from tis2000, it doesn't show VIN window it only shows "Security access 3 enabled", not security access 1 or the vin part. What could help ?

[@kimsoininen5902]

Using tis2000, not global tis. After I get "security access 3 enabled" and trying to configure my car from diagnostic -> 2000 -> 9-3 -> all -> Engineering tool, it asks the security access code still

Hi, hope someone can answer this - I have a 08 9-3 1,9 with a ECU thats damaged/dead and the car obviously wont start. I got a used ECU that matches the broken one with the intention of cloning the damaged one, but my question is, will a tech2 + candi + tis2000 let me marry the used ECU to my saab (as a new ECU without the data from the dead one?

[@QuickShiftMoto1]

Normal process is to switch out the T8 unit and add it to the car in the TEch2. For this you need to have security access. For 03-07 you get this with TIS2000. See this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmWtk3uJh5t5g8k ---- I assume from this video that for 2008 to 2010 you can use GlobalTIS without a license/subscription to add a new ECU. For 2011-2012 he commented you need a license/subscription from GM.

[@proarmy70]

behöver man security acces varje gång man ska använda tech 2 på en ng 9-3a

[@TechCars]

Det beror lite på vad man ska göra med bilen. Det är inte alltid som Tech2 kräver säkerhetsaccess. Du frågar bara en gång per bil och gång. Det ligger kvar tills nästa gång om du inte använt den med en annan bil.

[@healthierlifestylesforyou7117]

Do you have to pay to.get the severity access?

[@TechCars]

For the my 2011-2012 you need to buy subscription. Below that no, not that I'm aware of.

Hi. Thanks for the videos, they’re amazing. I got as far as the VIN verification but even though I already got the VIN from the car on the tech2, the VIN that pops up on TIS2000 is different. How can I change it or refresh it on the laptop?

[@TechCars]

It seems like the Tech2 hasn't been able to store the new VIN from your car, it still has the old one on the PCMCIA card. I wonder if it could have something to do with the PCMCIA card being defective. Do you have another one you can use?

[@smug999]

@@TechCars Got it! I just went, reconnected it to the car, got the VIN again and then re-"pair"ed the tech2 to TIS and the VIN was correct this time. Got the access and followed your stuff to make all the adjustments I wanted. Awesome, thanks for not only the videos but also taking the time to respond back to me!
