https://www.youcanic.com/forum/ This video provides a detailed guide on diagnosing 2018+ FCA (Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep, etc.) vehicles with a security gateway module using the YOUCANIC scanner. The video takes viewers through each process step, including the required tools, how to connect the scanner to the car, and how to interpret the diagnostic data. The step-by-step instructions and clear visuals make it easy for viewers to follow along and understand how to diagnose security gateway module issues. The video covers a range of potential security gateway module problems that may occur and how to use the scanner to diagnose and troubleshoot these issues. It is an excellent resource for FCA vehicle owners who want to monitor and diagnose potential security gateway module issues and for mechanics who want to use the latest diagnostic tools to repair and maintain FCA vehicles.

FCA Stellantis started installing a security gateway module on 2018 vehicles that prevent DIYers and mechanics from fully troubleshooting a vehicle. Unless you register the scan tool with FCA and pay a yearly subscription. This limitation affects all scan tools. The good news is that it is possible to bypass this limitation without paying a yearly subscription and simply by using Chrysler 12+8 adapter available online.

If you are troubleshooting a 2018 and newer Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep, Fiat, or Alfa Romeo, you can read codes from ALL the modules and view live data.

You cannot clear codes or carry bidirectional tests or any resets without bypassing the security gateway module. We have written an in depth article that explains what the security gateway module does and how to bypass it. In any search engine search: “FCA Security Gateway Module Explained by YOUCANIC.”
