Xhorse Multi Prog GM BCM D70F3469 Chip Config Failed Solution

 Problem:

I want to clone this Chevrolet Cruze BCM D70F3469 using Xhorse multi prog, but I’m getting this error.

Error: Chip configuration failed. Error code 08030201. Crystal frequency does not match.

Xhorse Multi Prog GM BCM D70F3469 Chip Config Failed  1

Solution:

Check your connections.  Need a 120 ohm resistor between the two CAN H and L wires. Between CAN H and L, just jumper those wires with the resistor.

A 120 ohm resistor is required on the CAN L and H wires, since their communication uses the resistance security system, implemented in the communication network of these units. This is intended to provide additional protection against diagnostics from the OBD2 port. If the circuit is opened by resistance, communication with the corresponding modules is lost. If you want to scan the vehicle and certain modules don’t communicate, by sheer logic, everything is derived thanks to the diagnostic protocol.

VVDI Key Tool Max PRO Program 2011 Jaguar XF All Keys Lost

 Hey everyone, I’m a locksmith, and today I want to walk you through a real-world job I just finished: a 2011 Jaguar XF all keys lost situation. Using the Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Max Pro, I was able to program new smart keys on the spot – no dealer visit needed.

 

If you’ve ever been faced with a customer who has no working keys, you know it can be stressful. But with the right tools, it’s totally doable. Here’s how I did it step by step.

VVDI Key Tool Max PRO Program 2011 Jaguar XF All Keys Lost 1

Step-by-Step Programming Process

  1. Connect to the Car
    Plug the Key Tool Max Pro into the OBD-II port under the dashboard. Make sure the ignition is OFF.

 

  1. Select Model
    Go to:
    Immo Programming → Jaguar → Select by Model → XF → Smart Key System→ -2012 → Program Smart Key

Choose the right year, for a 2011 Jaguar XF, select the “-2012” option.
*(For 2013 and newer, use the “2013+” option.)*

  1. Place the Key Correctly

Follow the on-screen instructions
The tool will tell you to place the new smart key near the gear shifter.
Tip: Don’t just press the key against the shifter – move it around slightly until the car detects it.

 

  1. Press the Button
    When prompted, press the UNLOCK button on the key repeatedly until the tool confirms the key is learned.

 

  1. Finalize
    Once the tool says “Programming Successful”, test the key: start the car, lock/unlock the doors, and make sure everything works.

My Experience & Tips

This was a smooth process overall. The Key Tool Max Pro read the immobilizer data, generated new key transponders, and programmed them without a hitch. The whole job took about 20 minutes.

 

Pro Tip: If the key isn’t being detected, try holding it near the start button or the shifter from different angles. Sometimes it’s a matter of finding the sweet spot.

 

Why I Recommend the Xhorse Key Tool Max Pro

As a locksmith, I rely on tools that are fast, accurate, and affordable. The Key Tool Max Pro is all three. It’s especially useful for older luxury models like the Jaguar XF, where dealer programming would be expensive and time-consuming.

 

This tool lets independent shops and DIYers handle jobs that used to require dealership software. That’s a win for us and for the customer.

 

Final Words

If you’re a locksmith or a tech working on European cars, the Xhorse Key Tool Max Pro is worth every penny. It turns stressful “all keys lost” jobs into straightforward, profitable services.

Put Capacitors Back to MLB Key with Xhorse MLB Tool?

 Question:

Done Audi Q7 2019 using Xhorse VVDI MLB tool, please confirm if you have to put the capacitors back in place and what happens if you don’t.

I managed to pull immo off the key and made dealer key with MLB Vvdi, first time trying it , haven’t tried to learn it yet as far as I can tell the key can be detected by mlb tool and remote working on oem with those two capacitors out.

Put Capacitors Back to MLB Key

Here is the clue.

Some users reported not putting back capacitors, the key still works.

Others put back only the bigger one, the key still works like new.

Key will work without, but those components are there for a reason they stabilise MCU. If you are a professional, you should put it back.

If you don’t put capacitors back, that will most likely make the key inconsistent or damage components in the long run.

The capacitors are there to stabilize/regularize the current to the remotes cpu, it will still work for a while but you have to remember they are there to ensure the CPU doesn’t get fried. So say a few weeks or a few months down the line the original remote fails that’s on you to fix.

Those are decoupling capacitors used to reduce HIGH FREQUENCY noise on the power rail on the MCU. Still will function but might fail due to rail voltages not being stable due to too much noise on the rail. Typically In pico Farhad range.
