How to use Launch X431 to Bypass FCA Security Gateway?

 Launch Scan Tools (i.e Launch X431 V+, X431 Throttle, X431 Torque, X431 Turbo, X431 PAD V) updated 2017 and later FCA Vehicles with Secure Gateway Module (SGW): Register with AutoAuth to enable your LAUNCH scan tool to communicate with the FCA SGW Authentication System and bypass the SGM, so as to perform diagnostics and bi-directional without using a bypass cable.

 

Background: Starting in 2018, FCA US has been equipped with a Security gateway firewall that is new to the car industry. The logic behind this Gateway is to secure the vehicle’s control systems against security threats and other issues as car ecosystems become more connected and advanced. To access this Gateway your scan tool will need to be authorized by Auto Auth. There are a few steps that you will need to complete in order to gain authorization to the FCA US Gateway.

Performs diagnostics and bi-directional without using a bypass cable:

Establish a connection with your Launch scan tool to the vehicle via auto VIN detect or the manual Chrysler configuration.

 

Tap any Special functions, the FCA will prompt you to log in to access the security gateway.

 

User authentication will be valid as long as the vehicle is keyed on an engine off and your VC I is connected to the vehicle with a stable Internet connection.

When I discovered that the Launch X431 V+ could not do that I purchased a PIWIS III clone with the intention of selling the Launch X431 V+ but I have not got around to selling it yet because it is so much easier to use then the PIWIS III.Here is what I have done so far with each one. Launch X431 V+ : Cleared all the fault codes stored in the car. Activated the Aux setting in PCM (PCM/CDR) I had to add an aux cable to the PCM to make use of this one.
