![]() Alright so I plug in the tech 2.
Turn ignition on. From the main menu I select SPS. After requesting info there's no listing for Saturn? What needs to be done? ![]() ... 2007 Saturn Ion 2 Sedan, 2.2L DOHC 16V with Duel Balanced Shafts. Automatic Transmission. 180,246K. One owner car.

![]() Unfortunately I don't have an answer as I never got to/needed the programming capabilities of the Tech 2. Maybe you have to use the TIS2000 software as the primary interface?

![]() That's okay. It seems like the Tech2 is not communicating with the computer. Tried both TDS and TIS. Tried it with the OEM RS-232 com port, (my Desktop has a functioning one). And the Tripp adapter. To no avail. Whenever I go to SPS the communication fails. Perhaps something was updated that prevents these clones entry or the software is not compatible any longer?
![]() Anyway got me a VXDIAG VCX NANO. Now that's one fast and cool tool! It's the same software that the Tech2 uses only that you see it right up on your Destop/Laptop's screen, (Tech2Win Diagnostic Software). ![]() ... 2007 Saturn Ion 2 Sedan, 2.2L DOHC 16V with Duel Balanced Shafts.

![]() I've tossed around the idea of buying one of these for my other GM of the household (a 2004 Chevy Blazer) to change some things around like turning off the auto headlights, and just have it on hand for other things that may come up between it and the Saturn...
Are you saying these clones no longer work, like they don't communicate with GM's servers any more and function? ... 98 SL2, 70k miles, kept in the family since new! Her name is Uranus :)

![]() My clone is in storage as I'm between residences. So, I can't take a picture. However, this review is of exactly what I have.

![]() There are a lot of photos all over the internet perhaps you can visit Saab Central and go to The Official Tech 2 Clone thread.
