Thank you AD! NASTF booted me and I didn’t appreciate how they ran audit on my company tracking my IP when I was on vacation and my customers needed keys and I shared keycodes with subcontractor. They suggested I make my subcontractors be a W-2 employee or to have someone at shop login and report the form. You can’t do that with a one person shop. And we need vacations. There rules are too Strict and it forces extra admin work that I don’t have time for. The positives I’m now more skilled than ever w/o NASTF🎉

Yea, I could go out of town and hand my phone over to a trusted locksmith friend, make the necessary steps to get the job done so the customer is serviced. If the customer's car gets stolen, I would be dealing with the police, insurance, lawsuit and reputatiion clean-up, not NASTF. At some point it's all about money.

Thank you AD for keeping us independent of the car manufacturers #Lockboss

Thank you, PJ and Tony. I'm glad to hear that AD is not bending the knee. I knew if we were talking about the original AD, there would be no way they would agree to this. I am so glad that the vision is still as it was before Ilco bought AD. #Lockboss. I feel much better knowing AD is on our side as locksmiths... #Lockboss

I might just be an advanced diag user next week. I like that response. No doubt, their tool is the best, there is a price to pay for that. But their tool just works.

Fantastic video by CLK. Finger on the pulse of the industry subject. I really appreciate you taking the time to use KZread as a platform to talk with industry professionals about current relevant questions. Thank you. #LockBoss

I just want to fix cars as a hobby. Flashing modules using j2534 is something I occasionally have to do to get stuff to work. NASFT would put an end to my work, stuff would have to be sent out to the dealer for items like PCM reflashing. I am not going to get licensed, carry insurance, and pay $500 for a login.

Trust me there are alot of us in the same situation. I've been going back and forth with many tool manufacturers and there are options out there. Just have to wait and see who joins first as tool manufacturers and nastf are keeping a tight lip on who is joining and who is not. Meanwhile new aftermarket tools are rolling out in Europe and be here soon that does the same job, that means these big firms are.going to lose a lot of income while some small firm from across the world will make millions in the first few months.

All this talk at NASTF about stolen tools, whatever happened to password protection? Advanced Diagnostics already protects it's equipment, cheerio!

Name, rank and serial number provided with the VIN and a transaction code and other details (GPS location, etc) before you are allowed to proceed. This way you can be held liable if the duplication is used for unlawful purpose. Follow the money and I'm sure you'll find an insurance company and a lawyer in deep conversation.

I see NASTF and J2534 programming as yet another tool in my arsenal to be able to serve more customers that the aftermarket programmers have not caught up with yet. Yes, those customers with the newest vehicles will have to pay a premium to make up for extra incurred costs, but it will still be far less expensive for them than going back to the auto dealership.

Nothing will change for you as far as NASTF goes. Some programmers are going to require a login that you already have. If you don't need any codes you will proceed as normal. If you need a code than the normal D1 needs to be filled out. It's really about which programmers are going to be involved in this. We have 2 Smart Pro's. We have many Autel's also. I am hearing Autel is going to do this. Smart Pro to me is the best programmer out there. It's not our first goto though. We use the Autel's so we don't use a token and this is kind of lazy but the Autels are easier to get out of the case. lol Run run 80 to 150 automotive locksmith calls per week. We are busy so we try and be efficient on every call. We don't even Lishi. We either use a code broker or NASTF if we need a code unless the lock comes out easy and fast.

Thanks PJ , as always excellent #LOCKBOSS information

Hey PJ, I haven't heard anyone talk about the possibility of this program enabling aftermarket tools to expand their coverage on newer cars. I made keys for a 2023 F-150, 2024 Mazda 3 and CX-30, 2023 Promaster, and a bunch of CanFD GM models last week. All of these cars required dealer software and NASTF. Seems like the aftermarket tools are not keeping up as much as they did in the past. Any thoughts? #LockBoss

It will knock out the guys running around with no insurance, no locksmith license and a bad criminal history. If you're doing the newer stuff, you should already be setup with NASTF. I guess we will see how it plays out. I could see a guy in China with a work around in 2 weeks and a big run on the SmartPro's for now😁 #LOCKBOSS

It's becoming a money pit for someone to sit behind a wall(NASTF) and come up with more stupid rules and then say it's "voluntary". That's a load of BS! I'm not going to carry a million dollar insurance policy because NASTF requires it. It's none of their business if I'm a convicted felon who paid the price and is now out trying to scratch a living. It's none of their business. All this is doing is punishing the law abiding citizen and there will always be the thieves no matter what. The cost alone that NASTF is talking about is utter BS that will have to be passed on to the customer. This sh*t already costs enough. There are certain cars that are being stolen at a higher rate than others so the car companies can fix their own problems. I'm hangning onto my carbureted vehicle and no computer for as long as I can because this crap is going too far!! Let freedom ring!

This is why we pay for car insurance and this is a result of our justice (injustice) system not doing their job because they are bought off by George Soros. This is a Ponzi scheme by NASTF non governmental organization not elected by the people making decisions for the people. NASTF doesn’t like locksmiths they represent the OEMs and not the people who buy the cars which is their property. Realize this is unconstitutional like a gun registry. Eventually you will be tracked and monitored and back door reported to OEMs to see how much money they are losing in the name of security. Then you will be canceled and locked out of automotive work. Just like the patriot act, nothing patriotic about it. NASTF is from Colorado one of the most liberal states run by crooks. Enforce the current laws that are actually constitutional.

Interesting, but i also knew it was a matter of time before the auto industry tried to corner the market on key programming. Wonder how much more locksmiths that are willing to pony up the high costs of the licensing etc..will be raising their prices.

How to #LockBoss program programmers..... have a great day

I don't understand English very well, my question, doubt is: smartpro will not be affected for now or will it not be necessary to register with a locksmith license for the functions of lost keys and add keys?

Let's face it, nearly anyone can be a programmer. With little to no training, nearly anyone can program another key. No offense to Billy (Ian) and Lily, they can do it, and it shouldn't be a complicated process to program a key. But it's just as easy for the criminals to do it too. Money talks, and when insurance companies talk to manufacturers and theft deterrence is mentioned and analyzed, they talk about stuff like this. Everywhere you go, the big brother approach prevails. Who are you, why do you need access, prove you are who you say you are. I'm guessing that it is ultimately the goal to verify users. And if Ilco/AD want to receive manufacturers information necessary to make programmers...in exchange, they will need to put in some type of user authentication protocols that safeguard the programmer tool from being used for nefarious purposes if stolen.

Some of us literally have crystal balls. They just aren't very effective. 😂

They need to get back to servicing the people not tread on peoples right. Don’t forget service is where they make most of their money. This is a sneaky way for OEMs to increase their quarterly earnings. Any aftermarket programmer who wants to go along with NASTF will be put out of business due to boycott. So try it and see what happens. 😢
