Possible to Update Scania VCI3 SDP3 Clone VCI Firmware?

When using SDP3 2.44.1 and above all Scania VCI3 device VCI firmware needs to be updated to use the latest SDP3 software. This is performed automatically by SDP3.

 

Q1: All Chinese VCI3 adapters fail to update vci firmware?

A1: It is a rumor that all Chinese VCI3 clone adapters fail to update and only work with old software versions. The best VCI3 (Item: SH58 and SH58-C with full chip) does allow VCI firmware online upgrade and fully compatible with the latest SDP3.

Q2: after install and activated SDP3, it can open well . but when connect vci3
it says “the software in vci is not the lastest version.click ok to install new vci software”

how to update the firmware in the VCI3  SDP3?

Q3:

in the window that will appear, click update VCI until succeeded,  if not, delete the contents of the folder “vcifrimware” in scania/sdp3 directory

Q3: i read that it is compatible only with Windows 7 32 bit.

A3: It works on 64 bit whitout problems.

Windows 10 is not recommended because some of it’s releases does not support .Net Framework 4.7 that is needed to run SDP. If you are using Windows 10 make sure that .Net Framework 4.7 can be installed before bidding!

Recommended operating system: Windows 7 (the most stable – Scania dealerships use this OS)

Most issues that encounter our clients are caused by incompatibility with other software or previous versions installed on your PC. A clean installation is the best way to get a 100% working system.

 

 

Q4: After set up factory settings in my vci3 BlueTooth stops working. It updated the firmware but wi-fi not found on laptop. 

A4: You must use VCIConfigurator but only on windows 7 and configure vci to adhoc.
On Windows 10 not working adhoc.

Win7 configure vci to adhoc:
C:\Program Files\Scania\SDP3\VCIConfigurator.exe
