Good news. I was able to return the Chinese GM Tech2 and get a full reimbursement to include shipping. Bit surprised with the Chinese. I guess they've come a long way. That's an excellent way to do business. obd2tool.com did right by me....

This pdf doc contains the TECH2 Paths required for multiple actions on the GM Tech2 for diagnosing and programming. It covers lots of territory..

I bought a similar one back in 2010. If the one you hyperlinked is anything like the one I have, then it's terrible...lol. The one I have is the Saturn Digital Workshop Manual from 2005-2007, and it's useful up to a limit. Additionally it is very complicated but has all the details. It's more...

None-the-less, I was at my wit's end and you guys stepped up to the plate to help. Purely professional attitude. I am so used to getting feed-back from all backgrounds right down to someone who's never even change their own oil, (and generally not very helpful). Not the case here. Mooseman...

What makes it into a good substitute for the Tech2 is that the software's exactly the same. Just without all that clunky hardware. And it is light years faster than the original Tech2. After all, all the GM products are similar. The differences begin after the first screen menu and it's based on...

Cool video. Excellent instructor. My 2007 is a bit more advanced than that 2004, (so it's a lot different). In my case I had no DTC's. I eventually figured out how to troubleshoot with Tech2Win by means of a TECH2 Paths pdf file I borrowed from the bad-asses at a Corvette forum. Once I ran the...

I'm chasing down an occasional intermittent stumble that happens when the car is warmed up and comes to a traffic stop. It doesn't happen when its parked in idle. I thought maybe its fuel related or dirty injectors. I cleaned them out, checked the fuel system and its working right... but the car...

Done!

Programming a Saturn Ion2 RKE Key FOB using a NANO. Attached is a pdf file with instructions should anyone need it. Hope it can be useful to somebody....

Case closed...car runs like a charm, Fobs programmed, (however slightly different steps than the generic 2006 Chevrolet). My version of the procedure for a Saturn using a NANO, is attached as a pdf file for reference if anyone needs it. Thanks guys!!

Thanks brother...that website's the ticket! And thanks for the heads up on the key chain...

After replacing the BCM and programing according to the manual set-up and procedure, it still wouldn't crank. Additionally, other DTC's popped up. Ran out of ideas so I decided to back track to the first things I did which involved swapping out the ignition switch. I removed it and lo and...

Here's the Tech2 display in the Diagnosis menu. Under status I see many No Comm. Does that mean that that module is not communicating with the Tech2? If not, what does it mean?

It's a 2007 Saturn, (LOL not a truck). Does anyone have the patience to help me troubleshoot a few DTC's. I installed a new BCM and Flashed it via acdelcotds.com. Tech2 diagnostic shows four DTC's.

Yeah I posted my issue on the wrong thread. Removed...
