This can be VERY dangerous if you do not know what you are doing. All files are good working files that we provide. If you choose to alter a file, you do so at your own risk and we cannot support these changes. ***Please always have your computer plugged in and a battery charger on your vehicle during the flashing process.*** Required to Flash Windows PC or MAC running as a windows machine with USB drive.

Step 3 – With the VCM Editor open, click on the Help tab and choose to Resync Device which will update the device before you can read. Step 4 – Once the device has been synced, you can now Read the ECU Memory. Under FLASH, select Read Vehicle.

Dodge, Jeep, Chrysler, Mercedes ECU are specified on the product page that the ECU must be sent in to be unlocked for an additional charge before the MPVI can be used. Step 5 – Once you read out your car, you will need to send us your file. Before sending, you need to change the file extension from .hpt to .bin or it will not upload. (CLICK HERE UPLOAD YOUR FILE). We will then return your tuned file to this same email address unless otherwise specified. Everything needs to be filled out and sent in. If you have an issue with the reading process, we can do a remote login to your computer using www.ultraviewer.net. Files can take up to 24 hours to be returned during business hours Monday to Friday, 9am – 6pm MST. Step 6 – Now that you have received your file back, you can reconnect the MPVI to your OBDII port and launch the HP Tuners VCM Editor software again.

At this point it will use the credits from the MPVI and the device cannot be used on another car without purchasing more credits through us (Purchase Credits Here) Step 8 – Once the file has completely written, you can turn the key off then back on to start the car. If you have any check engine lights, use the VCM Scanner to see what they are and send us a support ticket. You are done!
