We have some exciting news to share with you today. One of the most common questions we get related to TPMS is Autel tools ability to service Fiat Chrysler automobiles now known as

stellantis. Newer stellantis vehicles are equipped with a secure Gateway module or as it’s often referred to an SGM module.  These manufacturers include Jeep Dodge Ram Chrysler Alpha Romeo Fiat and Maserati. The Security Gateway was implemented in 2018 and its function is to block unauthorized access to vehicle system so how does this affect our repair processes?

 

Technicians can still access vehicle information such as reading codes and viewing live data but bi-directional functions are where it gets tricky. We can access all the vehicle’s output information via traditional OBD2 capable tool but when it comes to inputs or making changes to the systems such as clearing codes, activating components, performing service, Bay tests or even module programming special software is required to gain access through the SGM. This restricted access can be problematic for even the simplest operations take a TPMS OBD relearn or an oil maintenance light reset. Just as an example a conventional TPMS tool is not able to write the new sensor IDs and wheel locations to the module.

 

Autel has partnered with autoauth. This specialized software allows autel’s tools to gain unrestricted access to Vehicles equipped with an SGM module. Many Autel tools can now utilize this software to perform specialized Diagnostics without being blocked by the secure Gateway system.

Until now technicians have faced significant challenges when servicing TPMS on 2018 and newer FCA Vehicles. This led to many disappointed vehicle service providers not to mention their

customers.  We’re proud to announce that Autel’s ITS600 is now Autoauth capable and can meet the challenges of servicing newer Vehicles equipped with secure Gateway modules.

First we will connect our VCI200 to the OBD2 port and power up ITS600 TPMS service tool. Once the VCI is paired with the tool, we will tap TPMS.

The ITS600 will automatically identify the year, make and model. We’re going to perform our relearn procedure utilizing the autoauth software.
