EFILive Limited designs and manufactures high performance scanning and tuning tools for both gas and diesel GM engines.
OBDII or OnBoard Diagnostics Level II, is an electronic system built into all 1996 and later light-duty vehicles and trucks (as required by the United States of America's Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990).
EFILive's FlashScan tool works with multiple OBDII protocols:[citation needed] SAE-J1850 VPW and ISO 15765 CAN and eventually it will support GM's older OBDI protocol: ALDL.
Carbytes was EFILive's first free[citation needed] OBDI scantool and was made available for public download in the late 1990s. Interest from aftermarket performance workshops[citation needed], and calls for significant product enhancements[citation needed] lead to the creation of EFILive Limited. The new software, aptly named EFILive V4, was designed for OBDI GM vehicles. With the industry advancements in aftermarket performance products, EFILive saw a need to provide OBDII support. EFILive V5, V6 and V7 were added to the product suite to meet these needs.
Currently EFILive V7 combines an integrated PC based scanning and tuning tool for GM's LS1, LS2 and Duramax diesel engine platforms. EFIlive V7 and the FlashScan interface feature "blackbox" data logging, hardware communications via USB connection, free software upgrades, and key upgradeable licensing and hardware options.
EFILive continues to develop the FlashScan product line, adding industry leading features and new technologies. Platform expansion to include additional vehicle, engine and transmission types has seen more industry firsts, and the current developments of EFILive’s FlashScan V2 and AutoCal hardware interfaces will add to the existing features.
