Once again the VehicleLink Team has some hot new updates to help you avoid your summer bummer.
Added New Feature: Speed Sweep Conversion on Select GM Vehicles
This new feature will allow for closer to factory speed sweeps on 2019+ GM vehicles featuring S6J3XXX microcontrollers and will slowly be rolled out across the lineup as overlays with these speed sweeps become available. It’s worth noting that this will only work with Kelowna Instruments branded faces for these vehicles. For this month we’ve been able to roll this feature out to the following vehicles:
+2019 Cadillac XT4(UHS Cluster Only)***
+2020-2023 Cadillac XT4(UHS Cluster Only)
+2020-2023 Cadillac XT5(UHS Cluster Only)
+2019 Cadillac XT6(UHS Cluster Only)***
+2020-2023 Cadillac XT6(UHS Cluster Only)

Wildfires and Delays***
Unfortunately due to some delays brought on by a nearby wildfire this update will launch a bit later than we anticipated. As well we’ve also had to push back a few features for this update that we’re hoping to release in September. The following features we had to push back as we had lost some very precious development time:
-Support for 2019 Cadillac XT4 Conversion
-Support for 2019 Cadillac XT6 Conversion
-Connection Diagrams for most Nissan/Infinitis added in this update.
This is also likely to mean that the September and possibly October updates may be slightly delayed due to complications from the wildfire situation.
This update will be going live on Tuesday, August 29th. In the next week or two we’ll have some news on some new features we have coming to VehicleLink this fall.
