What cable is needed to stop the active alarm on a ford with theAutel im508orim608?

Autel usesgbox2/gbox3and you manually do the disconnecting and reconnecting.

How to use Gbox to disable active alarm?

Leave ground connected, then 1 wire from battery + to gbox then 1 wire from battery + terminal to gbox.
the tool controls power then.

The + from battery goes to the GBOX2, and the battery post connector goes to the GBOX2 also.
THE POWER IS GOING TO THE GBOX2 FROM THE BATTERY!! . GUESS WHAT THE GBOX2 IS PLUGGED INTO? THE OBD PORT!!! .

Power from the battery goes to the gbox2, which gives power to the obd port. Gbox OBD connections are really tight.
The tools makes the connection of power and disables the alarm before it activates.

The tool switches the vehicle power on and off, its the whole entire purpose of using the Gbox2.

The gbox2 is acting as a switch to power on the vehicle. The whole entire purpose of using the Gbox2 is so the tool can control power to the vehicle.

Connection example:

2020 Ford F550 all keys lost with active alarm.

Autel really sucks at doing active alarm, I have been successful with it but it’s a headache. Roughly 20 mins of connecting and disconnecting battery.

Autel really needs to just make a real ford bypass cable. Other tools out have bypass cable setup that works great.
