their charges.\u00a0 GM has now replaced this system with a computer based MDI system.\u00a0 However, for vehicles like my 2007 Cadillac XLR or 2008 Cadillac STS-V, the Tech 2 can be a key diagnostic

arrived in Texas to my door on Wednesday &#8212; with free shipping and very good DHL service from Hong Kong to Texas!<\/p>\n<p>After some initial user error, I was able to plug Tab A into Slot A and Tab B into Slot B and etc.\u00a0 With the Tech 2 properly connected I was able to read from and interact with my 2007 Cadillac XLR.\u00a0 I still have a lot to learn about the Tech 2 but for plug it in and see it work tonight was a success.<\/p>\n<p>I will update this article as I use the No 1 Auto Diagnostic Tool Store Tech 2 a bit more, and will mention in future articles when it is in use.\u00a0 I paid for the item with my own funds, and no one sponsored this article.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The GM Tech 2 is a military grade custom hand-held computer
