field is a never-ending issue each and
every technician has to deal with. I try
to read and follow all the information
I can obtain before beginning any of
these procedures.
INFORMATION ACCESS
All the information you need is merely
a mouse click away. Two of the websites
you should have close at hand are oem1stop.com and nastf.org. Both online
locations list all of the individual vehicle
manufacturer's websites. For example,
the National Automotive Service Task
Force (NASTF) page has a list of costs for
the various manufacturer's websites. It
also lists the length and duration of days,
month, and the full year pricing, along
with a description of what is covered for
the various pricing levels.
Each page of NASTF has not only
the information you'll need to properly
gain access to the OEM websites, but

also some very informative videos on
key coding and an overview of the latest
scan tools and testing equipment, including PC requirements.
One of the most useful pieces of information accessible on the OEMs' pages
are the hardware and software requirements necessary to program a computer
on their vehicles. This includes information such as which versions of Windows
www.VehicleServicePros.com
are supported, and even which versions
of Java can be used while programming
a vehicle.
In many cases you will need to reconfigure your computer to revert back to an
older version of some software in order to
perform a program, especially if you have
your computer set to perform updates
automatically.
Getting from one of these websites
to the actual manufacturer's page is just
the start of the process. Be sure to spend
time becoming familiar with your tool
manufacturer's website before diving into
programming procedures. Each one is
different, and each year of manufacture
and/or model may have different requirements. The Drew Technologies website
has probably one of the most up-to-date
libraries of information with known
issues when programming, as well as
what is required to properly set up the
vehicle, the hardware, and software in
