ACC activation near Seattle Washington?
#11
Same here. ACC is really the only thing I’d want that I didn’t order. Sure not going to pay someone $1k to program just that. Especially when I can buy the tool for a few hundred dollars and then also have a code scanner to use. On another note, what does dynamic mode actually do?
I think with the V8 it does some electronic jiggery-pokery to stiffen up the suspension and stuff like that. No idea what if anything it would do for my P400. I suspect that whatever it does do, or doesn't, on any trim, I'm nowhere near refined enough to notice. I'm more tractor driver than test-driver.
A camping mode to shut off all the high draw electronics on demand would be useful

Have you any experience of the GAP tool. I’ve activated several functions listed on that link myself but am still trying to work out a few on them such as ACC.
Currently I have activated the hot spot, 007 screen, configurable dynamic mode, advanced tow assist, four microphones for calls, walk away walking.
Along with a few other defender owners, I am trying to figure out some of the other activations.

For example below is a screenshot of the mobile application. You pick what option and then change the parameters. It either works or it doesn’t or it throws up a fault. Reset back to default setting and the fault resets. Then try a different setting or combination of settings.

If you have a look at the video I posted yesterday on this thread it shows the app interface and how easy it is to change a setting

It definitely seems to be straightforward to change the files but it’s still trial and error. I’m happy to share my findings and what others have unlocked too. It still requires more input from users, for example, ACC still hasn’t been worked out.

Your video was super useful! I have just placed the order and hopefully I am able to get the ACC to be activated. Ill share my findings once i do

I have a v8 and only looking for the removal of active noise canceling. i have an aftermarket audio system and the ANC is channeling through my heavily powered subs.
is this basically the same services shops offer for activations?

The IID Tool is still in beta testing at the moment so not all activations are available yet! However if you bought a tool and got in touch with Patrick at GAP Diagnostics he will add you to the beta test, although it may be better to ask first if they are still allowing people to join the beta. As things are worked out more activations will become available, the IID tool has been available for some time and I've used it on my Disco 4's, FF Range Rovers etc, for newer cars they changed the way the system works which is why the tool is still in beta for the Defender. The tool basically plugs into your OBDII port and you control it through either your phone of tablet, as well as activations it also functions as a fully fledged code reader and you can read real time data from the car.
This is a quick video I did for activating the James Bond screen, (it's done in real time so no speeding the video up)
