Lexia 3 Question
 

On line at EOBD@.com, there ia a Lexia 3 unit. V23. Is this the unbit that will enable me to get into the ETACs?

Don't mind spending the money, just want to get the correct unit.

I think it should. I bought v23 here.

And if I understand what I've read here, this unit worked for you?

LikeI said, I don't mind spending the money but I want to make sure I'm getting what I want.

A laptop is needed, correct?

What version of windows is needed? I'm running Vista Home.

XP only. Nothing else seem to work also you have to STOP all antivirus when you install it.

Thanks.

I have also asked this of the seller. Have not recieved a reply yet.

When I do, I will post it here. Maybe there's a software upgrade that is missing?

I'd hate to spend the money, then have to go out and find a laptop with XP.

From the site both Vadimus and I bought and maybe more.

Hardware and software requirements
Software requires at least Intel Celeron/Pentium III 400 MHz, 128 MB RAM, 50MB free HDD space and USB 1.1 port (USB 2.0 recommended) and Microsoft Windows 98 SR2/2000/XP with the latest service pack installed.

I tried Win7, had no error message but it did not work so I dusted up an old Laptop wit XP home and it worked well.

You shouldn't have to go out and purchase a laptop with windows XP on it. Just save everything you want from the laptop you have with VISTA and install Windows XP on it. Installing XP will erase your Vista operating system. Vista is a very crappy operating system anyway.

You can just run XP in a VM. No need to erase anything.

True....I'm just not a big fan of VISTA and was trying to get rid of a problematic computer problem as well as well. lol

I just started reading about this unit, this will work with the Outlander Sport? I saw your other post about getting it to work with your vehicle, but any ideas about the sport? Does it matter what system is installed? I dont have the Navi unit. Please advise as it is a small price to pay to get a lot of those available options. thanks.

Yes it works fine on my Sport but you have to do an Internet upgrade on the software and re-activate. I also purchased my Lexia from the same place as Vadimus (link above) and it arrived from China in 3 days to Florida. I advise reading the Lexia thread and it should have most of your answers.

i know this is an old post, but its a long shot, im up in jax not too far from daytona, and was wondering if i was in the neighborhood sometime could you change some settings for me, if you of course, have the tool still? maybe throw a couple dollars or a case of beer at you for it? what are all the "unlockable" settings? ive read up on door-locks, fog lights....what about the rear wiper on with front wipers automatically? dvd running while in drive? does this tool work through obd connector? i have an obd connector to usb...does that mean i can just get the lexia software? i just dont wanna spend the money to get my doors to lock automatically...you know what i mean?!

I know the EOBD site, it changes domain name several times, current name is eobd2.fr or something. Found lexia 3 v48 on it, but did not see etacs. We would like to turn off the drl with etacs. Any sources?
