Scan Software - Let's start a master list - both paid - and especially FREEBIES
i'm looking for FREEBIE software to read codes, etc.
i have a 1992 vette LT1 - and i don't think that freescan has the provisions for the Y VIN LT1 cars. MY ECM was talking to the computer, however, no data was coming through.
what other freebies are out there - i'll try TTS and their 20 free scans later - but right now i want FREE FREE FREE windows based is preferred, but beggars can't be choosers.
this could also server as a master list of both paid and freebie software for future tuners! - i'd love to keep the thread updated if we could get this rolling - anybody wanna play?
if a thread like this already exists, or i have created this post in error - let me know, and i'll have it forcibly removed!
I"m in complete agreement with your plan ,unfortunatly I'm such a raw beginner I have nothing to contribute. I have to aquire the basics first.
I'm here to learn & offer my support.
Yes, I had the previous version for my GN, then it just so happened right when I needed to tune my Corvette they expanded it to include additional vehicles. Yes, all vehicles are included in the software, you just select which vehicle you want and it sets up the applicable screen shot. It exports all the data in the ALDL stream as recorded; I just hide or delete the cells I don't want to see at that time. Unlimited recording time, basically until your hard drive is full
It has some neat options like the triggers for when drag racing, you can manually start the log with a space bar or just click the start button in the window, or you can set up an auto start at a certain TPS value etc. I also have the boost sensing harness for my GN so I can display and record my boost level, excellent for tuning and a good way to verify my 'not so accurate' factory boost gauge.
There's lots of other useful software out there along with information.
If this gets enough response I'll post the links to them.
excellent post - i'll start digging around for what i can to use with mine - and see if i can find pricing on some of the ones you don't have prices listed for
***EDIT*** what i'm finding is that most, if not ALL of the freebies don't have anything for the 92-93 LT1 based corvette (using ECM 1992-1993 - 16159278)
looks like TTS has support (and not on their beta page)
EFI Live has support for 93 manual - and 93-95 auto - but no 92!
***EDIT2 ***
looks like what i was referring to above with support - is that BIN files that exist - i'm gonna load all of them and try them all - winALDL, EFILIVE, (i've already tried freescan, and it doesn't seem to communicate with my ECM)
Morley, the EASE web site you list has an OBD1 scan tool that will scan all LT1 Corvettes as well as all other GM OBD1 vehicles 1982-1995. The EASE GM OBD1 Personal version scan tool is $315.00 and it includes the capability to scan the CCM (Central Control Module) in the later model C4 OBD1 Vettes. I rep for Ease and can get any CF member who is interested a 10% rebate of the above retail price if they were to order through me.

Thanks for the price quote. I've looked all over that site and the links, but couldn't find any pricing info.
