Re: SKREEM no more!
Hi Kara,
Depending on how computer savvy you are, a micropod II DRB III emulator runs around $150 and works pretty well. It runs on windows 7, but some say it runs on windows 10. There is a forum member who uploaded a virtual machine version (search for DRB III emulator in the forum search tool) , and I have that running on windows 11 laptop. It allows you to train the tire sensors (TPMS), reset the airbag fault and read all of the DTC from all of the modules. It even acts like a DTC II code reader.
If you go about repairing your SKREEM, there are two options available to you - send it out, get it repaired, or get the ECU reprogrammed to ignore the SKREEM - you lose some security, but now any key you get made will start the car. I think either option costs around $500.
Good Luck
