Brief
The GM MDI is a compact communication module that manages the transfer of data between a vehicles on board ECU network and a PC.
When software coverage on the GM MDI is fully operational, all diagnostic and reprogramming for GM vehicles globally will be supported with this one piece of hardware.
The GM MDI offers faster programming speed at a lower cost. Depending on vehicle architecture (protocols/modules), the GM MDI can be 20-70% faster than the Tech 2. This helps alleviate vehicle battery drain problems during programming.
Using the GM MDI for programming also frees up your Tech 2 for diagnostics and other tasks.
No additional PCs are needed. PCs that have been installed under the Multiple PC Initiative (MPI) meet the PC Hardware Specification when using the GM MDI.
