VCI4 Cable Reading and Flashing instructions
Tuning with Protomotive? Here’s the VCI4 Cable Reading and Flashing instructions to help you get started. These instructions are for the 4.1.0.7 Flash client using Durametric VCI4 cables with the LED in the center of the connector under the S in Porsche.
How to install the software
- Download ProtoFlashclient41071_VCI4.zip Installer
- Please Unzip it to access the installer program.
- Click on Setup and allow it a few seconds to install.
- If your PC/laptop doesn’t have Microsoft .net 4.6, install this. dotNet 4.6 installer Windows 7 and up should already have it. Xp does not, but may have if you run other softwares requiring the .net setup.
How to read your car
- After the software has installed, plug in the cable so it recognizes and installs the drivers before running the software.
- After the drivers have been recognized, plug the cable into the car, key on (not running) click on read.
- Locate where you’d like to save the file and remember that location (desktop is great)
- Once done reading, send/email the VIN.trx file that is saved to your location. VIN will be your actual vin # with the extension .trx. For example, WP0AB29921S687676.trx
- Protomotive will tune your file and return it as a *.ttx file.
How to Flash your car
- Open the flash client, while connected to the car with the key on, and click on write
- Locate the *.ttx file you saved and the flash client will write your file.
