does any one here with this tool live in montreal, i really need to disable my tpms!! i am willing to pay for it, thanks!!

 

Dear members,

i have read a lot on this thread but i am not knowledgeable on my car settings and software as Etacs.
I have an Mitsubishi Outlander V6 from 2007, imported to the Netherlands from the middle east, Quatar.
Above 120 km per hour speed a very annoying sound gives a continious signal... I want to get rid of this.
I saw that probably with the dealers MUT software it is not possible to programm this warning signal out?
( i visited once a mitsu-dealer and he coulnot do it, he tried, but i donot know with what/how)

 

ETACS Decoder software and Toyota Mini-VCI J2534 cable will make you a happy man Broek!

 

 

I've read lots of contradicting information about the DRL settings in etacs and what they do. I finally had the opportunity to test it out and have figured it out. I thought I'd share in case anyone else is interested.

This applies to my Canadian 2011 Lancer Ralliart and may or may not apply to all vehicles.

Obviously DRL not present means DRL is switched off...

The 3 settings that end "with p" DO NOT light up until you release park brake, the 3 that end with "present" light up at all times as long as engine is running.

Normal DRL is low beam at full brightness (this can work with hid and led headlights but they will always be on). Basically with this setting the low beam is always on full brightness and the headlight on indicator is always on in the dash, you can not shut off the low beam.

Dimming DRL is low beam dim (I believe cars that come with this from the factory like mine need a special low beam relay that has fins on it and is larger than regular relays, this setting causes flickering hid and led headlights when DRL is active)

Independent DRL, this one is more complicated and my second theory was right. There are 2 connectors at the headlight, on my non hid headlights the smaller (6 pin connector but with only 5 wires) is plugged into nothing. With this setting activated the first pin of both left and right connectors (on my car left side wire is yellow and right side wire is blue) is powered during DRL operation, the 4th pin is always grounded(black wire).
So if you want fog lights or park lights or auxiliary led's or whatever as your drl's you then have to wire this to those lights. It's pretty cool that mitsubishi left all this wiring there, if you want to convert to oem hid lights all you gotta do is activate this setting and make sure both connectors are plugged in and it'll be like all the cars that came with hid from the factory.

Hopefully someone finds this helpful.
If anything isn't clear just ask.

Great post Alex, you got everything right.

Independent DRLs use dedicated bulbs/LEDs - on North American 2nd gen it's the middle segment between projector HIDs and turn signal.

 

Anyone in South Florida that has the Lexia 3 by any chance?

 

hello,
looks its a good choice, but i have a few questions
I have imported Outlander GT MY16 from US to EU, and I would like to make some changes:
1. odometer readings from miles to km.
2. Temperature from F to C (its also possible to change with settings in instrument cluster)
3. mpg to l/100km (its also possible to change with settings in instrument cluster)
4. radio frequency to 0.1MHz (radio without NAVI, with two little wheels, with touchscreen).
Can I change everything with ETACS decoder?
Thanks.

 

Is it possible to calibrate the speedometer with ETACS? I'm planning on mounting some oversize tires this summer.

 

Yes, you have to enter the new tire circumference.
