Some customers are curious about if the Autel AT100 super chip can be reset and reused? and how to do it?
Unlike the Xhorse VVDI super chip XT27A, which allows explicit resetting of chips, the AT100 does not have a dedicated “reset” function. Instead, it overwrites the existing data when cloning a new key.
Key Findings:
- The AT100 can be reused by writing new data over old data.
- There is no limit to how many times it can be overwritten.
- No chip corruption was observed during multiple overwrites in testing.
Example Test:
- A Toyota 4D key was cloned onto the AT100.
- The same AT100 chip was later overwritten with a Nissan 46 key.
- Both clones worked without issues.
Autel AT100 is a strong alternative for basic cloning and reuse via overwriting, making it useful for loaner keys or temporary solutions.
The Autel AT100 proves to be a reusable cloning chip, even without a formal reset function. While Xhorse VVDI still leads in advanced features, the AT100 offers a budget-friendly, practical solution for many cloning scenarios.
