Launch X431 Enables Porsche Macan Emergency Brake Flashing

I installed a flasher on my 2022 Macan GTS 3rd brake. The brake light would flash 2 times but then go dark and create an error message on the dash. This is called emergency brake light. Can be activated via PIWIS or Launch X431 V+ / Pros Mini coding. All rear lights flash when an acceleration (de-acceleration) parameter is met. The default parameters are when you are doing a speed above 70mph and experience a de acceleration of 0.81G’s, the rear lights (both brake lights and 3rd light) will flash. I activated in mine and modified parameters so that it activated at any speed above 3 km/h and de-acceleration of 0.71G’s. For the Macan the setting is in rear end electronics. Once you turn that option on. Set this option to 1 sec and leave everything this else as is from factory.   I also enabled emergency brake flashing on 991.1, same process as the Macan.

Does Launch X431 Pro Mini Support Chrysler SGW Models?

 As titled, i wonder if the Launch X431 Pro Mini or ProS Mini will diagnose Chrysler FCA models with SGW module. What else do i need? For x-431 Pros Mini or Pro Mini, to access FCA models, you will need: 1. Buy the FCA function license on X431 "Mall" ($30) 2. Also need to pay for the software subscription from AutoAuth Check:  Launch X431 FCA Security Gateway Access Instruction If you have X431 V or V+ , you don't need to buy the FCA function in X431 Mall, only need the subscription from AutoAuth.

Launch X431 ProS Mini "Disaccording" Error Solution

  Problem: Launch X43 1 ProS Mini  is connected to Bluetooth and tested the diagnostic functions and all advanced functions of the Xsara Picasso car, such as resetting the oil or other special functions, and received the same error message: “ Disaccording between the software Serial No. and Smartbox Serial No . Please download and upgrade again or contact local dealer”. “disaccording” here should be “mismatch” i thought.

The error prompt has gone away, problem was solved! If solution 1 failed, try 100% working solution 2.  Solution 2: First step is a factory reset. Then go to the official website to download the APK for Launch X431 ProS Mini. Do the following to reset X-431 PRO MI...

How to activate DRLs on 2020 Macan S Tail Lights with Launch X431?

  Car model and year:   a 2020 Porsche Macan S   Purpose: to enable the rear tail lights to be illuminated with the DRLs.   Tool to use: Launch X431 V  Bi-Directional Scanner (or  X431 ProS Mini  etc)   One friend mentioned: I’ve found this in Rear-end Electronics/Coding/Brush Hidden-Modified/Coding value/Coding value-0   Finally! OK, so here is the solution for those wanting to activate the DRLs (Daytime Running Lights) on tail lights (this is for a 2020 Macan S). As we approach our summer equinox with near 22 hours of daylight it’s less of an issue than in 6 months when the inverse occurs and visibility is key. On the version I have, it’s different from what my friend mentions above. In my case, and, as I have mentioned previously, for some unknown reason they’ve put that option in the  FRONT END ELECTRONICS . In the section my mentions, the Exterior Lights LED Lights simply confirms that you have LEDs (and not halogen) nothing else in...
