I think we have a winner here scan tool wise for the crossfire.

First unlike most scan tools you dont have to lie to it and tell it you have a Mercedes.

It identifies crossfires automatically.

 

Next we have the section for reading, programming, etc for the tpms.

 

Convertible top section

 

Skreeming time !

 

I was able to pull codes, clear codes and everything I messed with seemed to work perfectly. Was VERY fast which is a big win over my other scan tools.

 

Great Post:
Which Version of the X431 is it. They seem to have quite a few.
Thanks, Ken

 

I was about to ask the same question, which version?

 

Its a LAUNCH X431 V Pro 4.0 - 2022 Model Full Bidirectional Scan Tool.

 

Is this the one?
will it allow you to clone the sensors as well or do you need the tool from Autel to complete the process.

Not the exact one I have since mine included the tpms sensor wand for activating the sensors and it looks different too. Mine has the bolster for holding it on one end that the obd dongle goes in when your not using it and the other end is thin.

 

I cut grass today for the first time this year so Im a bit dead but I will try to explore more of the tpms menus There were tons of options in there.

 

“Not the exact one”.
Could you please share details/images of the unit you acquired. There appeared to be several to choose from

 

 

Thank you
stupid question but I need to ask

Are you able to clone as well as trigger the sensors with this tool? Any insights are appreciated
thanks again for the link

 

I know this x431 launch wand does what your talking about :

Porsche Cayenne TPMS diagnose by X431 TSGUN

The one I have doesnt do the cloning as far as I know. Its for setting up new sensors only as far as I know. But I havent messed with that part enough to say for sure. What they did with the one I have is that they included with the scanner a cheap version to talk you into buying the fancier one. But I believe for what I will be doing I wont need it. If it turns out it will help when I replace the sensors on the crossfire one day I'll buy it and post about it.

Next weekend I was going to tinker with the tpms stuff on the crossfire more. This weekend Ive got servers coming in Im setting up and its my birthday today

Weather here is pretty screwed up so I dont get much outdoor time and there isnt a bunch of room in the garage right now. One day its in the 70's and the next its cold. Its 29 degrees outside right now while I'm typing this.

 

I really feel for you with the weather you have.
The warmest its been here is about 38 deg and I have just come in from using the snow blower on the driveway. The lawnmower sits untouched for the last five months.
So give some thought for your northern neighbours.
We are farther south than many US citizens so we are not as cold as they are.

 

Has anyone tried this tool on the control top module to see what it reads and controls. I'm having issues with my top now and every time I take in to see the problem I get charged a diagnostic fee. In the long run it might be worth the cost.

 

Have you taken the car to a European auto mechanic that does Mercedes Benz's, Ask before you have them work on it if they do the top hydraulics/electronics systems. Good luck!

To several places here in Miami. No one can figure it out every one has given me a different problem but yhey can't get it right I have just given up on the shops so I figured I'll do it my self.

 

Yeah, that is usually best (self help) with this car and your wallet. Sorry your having these issues but there is a wealth of help/information that ultimately solve this with the car. I hope you can stay with it, we have quite a forum/membership for the most part. Good luck!
