Hello. I am installing a Ford vcm2 and connecting it to IDS V121.01, I get this error “ Falta de concordancia entre las versiones de software VCMII IDS (Mismatch between VCMII IDS software versions)”, does anyone know how to solve it?
obdii365.com engineer solution:
PS: both VCMII (SP177-C3 and SP177) share the same solution
Click “√” to upgrade VCM2 firmware.
Refer to this instruction, you first press the reset button, and then open the bosch vci manager to update the firmware.
- Take apart the fiber case.
- Use the USB cable to connect VCM2, hold the “Reset” button, don’t release.
- Connect the other end of USB cable to the computer with IDS V86 installed, until you hear a beep, release Reset button.
- Run Bosch\VCI Software(Ford-VCM-II)\VCI Manger(Ford-VCM-II)

- Click on “Recover” button and the program will switch to VCMII update page.
