Summer_Time_Shift_Method--shift_method set to USA (Default is Manual)

• Board computer menu configuration-Board computer menu configuration - byte 7-GPS time enables the instrument cluster menu item “Autom. time” for automatically syncing the clock using GPS.
• The key 1 / key 2 byte 13--GPS time settings (to Open instead of Shutdown) are the equivalent of going into the instrument cluster menu, enabling that menu item, and then pressing the door buttons to memorize the key settings.
• If I had to guess, the factory setting for byte 13--GPS time might change the default for new keys? I didn’t mess with it.
• PCM/CDR - Summer_Time_Shift_Method--shift_method to USA will cause the PCM to choose the correct daylight saving time mode. (Manual seems to forget after each shutdown, but only if GPS time is enabled.)

Did you change the PCM code to correct daylight savings time with an x431? I have yet to find anyone on various 718 forums that I have asked who has made coding changes to the PCM on a 718 with an X431.

718socal told me that coding the PCM with a PIWIS often causes the PCM to go dark and he has to deactivate Production Mode to turn the screen back on. He wasn't sure whether or not since would be an issue with an X431.

If you did make this change to the PCM with your X431, did the screen gone dark? If the screen did go black, were you able to fix this by using your x431 to deactivate production mode? If not, what did you do to fix the black screen issue?

I did notice that Launch v24.25 under fixed bugs does indicate that the tuner system entry method for Boxster was completed. I do not if this has anything to do with this issue.

Software compatibility: PIWIS may not be fully compatible with the PCM encoding process, leading to errors or incomplete encoding. This can result in a black screen on the PCM.

Firmware issues: The PCM firmware may not be fully compatible with the encoding process performed by PIWIS. Incompatibility or errors in the firmware can cause the PCM to fail or display a black screen.
Hardware damage: If the PCM has been physically damaged or there is a hardware issue, it may not respond properly to the encoding process. This can result in a black screen or other display issues on the PCM

Incorrect encoding settings: If the encoding settings used by PIWIS are incorrect or not compatible with the PCM, it can cause issues with the display. This can lead to a black screen or other display problems.

User error: Incorrect usage of PIWIS or improper encoding procedures can also result in a black screen on the PCM. It is important to follow the correct steps and ensure that all settings and procedures are performed correctly to avoid any issues.

Overall, the black screen on the PCM after encoding with PIWIS can be caused by a combination of software, firmware, hardware, or user-related issues. It is recommended to consult with a professional or contact the manufacturer for further assistance in diagnosing and resolving the problem(https://www.autonumen.com).

I just did this one and my time immediately updated to the correct time, previously it was a couple minutes off. Thanks for the tip! I did not do any day light savings time adjustments as the time is correct right now.

On my 718(982) chassis I have not yet found where this is adjustable. I am simply wondering if this is something you have found or do you know if it is not adjustable on the 718?

Thank you,
