How to Use Launch X431 with Pogo Cable?

Question:

Can Launch X431 IMMO Plus/IMMO Elite do VW Instrument immo key with pogo pin without reading from chip? Like say 2013 VW Jetta flip key. Autel can do it via Pogo pin and plug method and this can save some time.

 

Here is the clue.

This comes with a pogo pin. There is a pogo cable in the box when you get it.

This pogo cable connects to the xprog 3 yellow port (the DB26 connector).

User feedback:

It worked it out finally. This pogo cable does indeed connect to the xprog 3 yellow port. But doing so when connected to the car with old port powers up the instruments. So you need to find the pogo point, then touch and hold pogo on point while connecting to xprog3 the instrument should now enter service mode.

Hold the probe on the boot point, power on the cluster, you can then retrieve the immo data. After retrieval of immo data, put cluster back in car and turn ignition on before doing dealer key and learn key. Done successfully.

FYI:

Be careful when using pogo pin method. If you use the wrong pin it can cause corruption on clock.

I have the Launch X431 V+ Pros Mini which I purchased new from obdii365 for $1079. I also have a PIWIS III clone V38.90 that i purchased from another website for $1429. I purchased the Launch X431 V+ with the intent of using it to flash a used control module for my car. 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. Changed the number of flashes for one touch turn signal from 3 to 5 (Front-end Electronics) Activated Comfort entry windows up/down via keyfob (Front-end Electronics) Changed the speed when the doors auto lock, 3 mph to 20 mph (Front-end electronics) Changed the speed when...
