  4. Step 8

    Connect to your Maptuner X to your vehicle using the supplied cable. The cable has an HDMI plug on one end which is inserted into the bottom of the Maptuner. The other end plugs into the diagnostic port on the vehicle. In 2015 & 2016 Mavericks and Maverick Turbos, the diagnostic plug is next to the battery under the dash. In 2017 and 2018 X3’s, the port is located under the glove compartment lid. 2019 and 2020 Can Am X3’s the diagnostic port is located under the center dash panel.

    Connect to your Maptuner X to your vehicle using the supplied cable.

  5. Step 9

    Turn the key to the “ON” position - on X3’s push the start button so the dash lights up, but DO NOT start the vehicle.

  6. Step 10

    The Maptuner screen will power up and have a few icons on the screen. Click the “add vehicle” icon and follow the on-screen instructions. It will take 30 – 60 seconds to fully register the vehicle.

  7. Step 11

    Once complete, disconnect Maptuner from the vehicle and bring it to your computer.

  8. Step 12

    Synchronizing puts your vehicle specifications and vin# on our server – this ensures the correct tuning for your vehicle is selected. MyMaptuner will download a Stage 1 tune by default.

  9. Step 13

    Once synchronization is complete, please email to let us know this has been done. We will then add the rest of the tuning files you have purchased to your account. This is usually done immediately, except for weekends which sometimes may take a few hours. Once you receive the confirmation email from us that the tuning files have been added, sync once more and all of the files will be added.

  1. Step 14

    After step 13 is complete, there is no need for a PC computer anymore unless you are upgrading/updating tunes, adding another vehicle or adding features. In other words, the tuning files are stored on your Maptuner and your vehicle can be flashed anytime or anywhere without internet or a PC. If you have multiple vehicles, they can also be flashed in this same manner.

  2. Step 15

    You may now program your vehicle by connecting your Maptuner to the diagnostic port again. Switch the key to the “ON” position or press “START” momentarily on the X3 to light up the dash – DO NOT START THE VEHICLE! On the Maptuner display, press the “PROGRAMMING” button and follow the on-screen instructions.
