Try this:
Key on, ignition off.
Download, install, and started OBDWiz on my laptop (old Dell XP).
I plugged the SX into the OBD connector on my truck.
Then plugged the SX into USB port on laptop and had OBDWiz connect to the SX.
After Wiz recognized the connection to the truck, I hit the disconnect button in Wiz. If I didn't, I got a port in use error message in command prompt.
Loaded up the GEMS program in command prompt. Ran >gems com# reset.

Funny, I had the same problems getting it to run on a windows 7 machine. Would connect fine on the OBDwiz program, but would give an error on when trying to run the GEMS program. Kept getting the Invalid Argument error. Fortunately we have a couple mac laptops in the house as well so I grabbed my wife's macbook and the mac binary ran fine and was able to reset my adaptives. It worked on the first attempt.

I also received a connection error when running GEMS until I did the following;
While connected in WIZ, under the Connection tab, I hit the disconnect radio button. Minimized WIZ then ran GEMS reset. I would make a video of the procedure but my truck is running awesome right now and rather not mess with it.

I tried that - running OBD wiz, disconnecting it and then running the GEMS program and got the same error. Fortunately I had access to a Mac to run it from.

Sorry to restart this thread but I'm trying to get my idle fixed and I have a mac but the website says it won't work with mac. Does that even matter since you're talking to the car through terminal?

Released the android app. It'll work with any bluetooth elm327 compatible reader
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ms.gemsutility



works best with this one

it'll get the job done, just slightly slower with this one
