How to use Ford VCM 2 unit with Mazda IDS software

Vcm2 model:SP177-C1

Mazda IDS installation: Success

Issues: Mazda ids can see the vcm but it won’t connect to the car.

What tried:

I tried the old trick which involves copying ford’s vcm manger files to the Mazda folder.

Mazda ids can see the vcm but it won’t connect to the car.

I tried it with latest Bosch vcm manager and ford ids 104.1 and Mazda ids 103.5

My ford and Mazda ids are not on the same partition so I simply copied the file from a partition to the other one, taking care to rename the folder to Mazda-vcm…..

Solved!!!!!!

All I did was install Ford 2.3.85.7 software and uninstalled Mazda vcm 2 software then reboot and it’s working
