Blank 12200411 PCM

Cool... :cheers:

Standard shopping list for my mate in AZ is:
-1.5kg tub of Vegemite
-1.5kg tub of Keens Hot English Mustard (for his ham and cheese sanga's)
-Bottle or two of Bundy
-Couple of blocks of Cadbury's....or some Freddo's.

Yes, entering the VIN and BCC data via the scan tool actually "writes" the info to the pcm.

I am not really sure what the BCC is/does other than the definition provided in the tuning manual.


"BCC: Broadcast code. This is a form of PCM identification; you may set this value to any 4 alpha-numeric identifier.

Doc, thanks. I noticed we can change the BCC, but I don't know what the PCM does with it.

Is it possibgle to clone a PCM?
I mean...when my spare, blank unit arrives, can I clone it exactly or will I have to use another licence on it? I want to just put it on the shelf incase I ever damage the one I have.

My mum lives near the Cadbury plant in Hobart. :cheers:

Oh yeah, Freddos were good, and so were Smarties ("...Do you eat the red ones last...").

AFAIK,
No, each pcm has a "electronic serial number" as you can see in your licensing tab in the tuning tool. That is what you are actually licensing.

Yeah...that's what I thought Doc. :frown:
Thanks

Where are you guys purchasing these PCM's from? I'm getting ready to convert my 98 to an 02, but I've had no luck in finding one.

Thanks!

I saw some on being sold by PCMamerica on ebay for US$99, but I want to try Black02SS or wait4me on this forum.
