LAUNCH X431 PROG5 IMMO Programmer 3-in-1 ECU TCU Cloning Tool Upgrade of XPROG3

PROG5= X-Prog3 + PC Converter + X431 Key Programmer + MCU3 Adapter + More ECU/TCU Cloning Models.
The G5 itself can only do immo functions for German brands. It does not have universal IMMO software (purchase universal IMMO license separately).
1 Year free update. $269 per year later.

Notice:
1. The LAUNCH X431 G5 can connect directly to the computer; a PC Adapter is no longer needed.
2. The X431 G5 can be used with the X431 PAD series (X431 PAD V ELITE, PAD VII ELITE, PAD IX), as well as comprehensive diagnostic tools such as PRO3 V+ ELITE/ PRO3S+ ELITE.

The LAUNCH X-431 PROG5 (also known as G5) is a brand-new, professional, all-in-one automotive immobilizer programming and matching tool. As the comprehensive successor to the X-PROG3, it is specifically designed for immobilizer services on European and American vehicle makes, integrating three core functions: key matching, chip read/write, and ECU/TCU cloning.

The device operates without the need for additional converters; it can be used with the full range of X-431 diagnostic tablets or connected directly to PC software to independently perform read/write and cloning operations for engine and transmission control units. This single device replaces multiple tools—including the X-PROG3, PC converters, key programmers, and MCU3 adapters—thereby significantly reducing equipment procurement costs for auto repair shops and minimizing the amount of gear technicians need to carry.

Important Safety Notes (Must Read for New Users, Avoid Damaging Tools & Car Modules)
1.No Power Cut During Data Read/Write
When cloning an ECU or reading immobilizer data, power loss, cable unplugging or ignition shutdown will permanently damage vehicle control modules and cause irreparable faults.

2.Keep Stable Vehicle Voltage During Operation
Connect an external regulated power supply when working. Do NOT perform any programming tasks if the battery voltage is lower than 12V.

3.Gentle Plug & Unplug of Wiring Harness
DB26 / DB15 ports are precision interfaces. Do not bend cables violently; rough operation leads to unstable communication.

4.Legal Use Only
This device shall only be used on legally owned vehicles with complete paperwork. Using it on stolen, mortgaged or unresolved repossessed vehicles violates laws; users take full legal responsibility for improper usage.

5.Do Not Erase Immobilizer Data Without Backup
New operators are forbidden to click "immobilizer initialization/module full erase" blindly. Missing backup data will lead to vehicle no-start.

6.Update Software Regularly
Renew your update service annually. New vehicle immobilizer protocols are released continuously; outdated software cannot program newly-launched car models.

7.Proper Storage Environment
Keep the device away from damp, high-temperature, and dusty workshops. Disconnect all power cables for long-term storage.

8.Only Use Official Matching Cables & Adapters
Third-party non-original wiring will trigger communication failure and risk burning out the PROG5 main unit.
