     I do have a Maxisys 908 and I realized that there are some months that scanner is not reading the VIN property. I'm having to put it manually. What I also realized is that the VIN reading doesn't work for new cars that I try to read. Cars that I already scanned in the past, still gets the VIN automatically.

    Is there any suggestion to solve it?

     Keep the VCI out of the sun Don't ever allow the VCI to get too hot .
    Update the VCI Only If you are within your active update period of your Tablet

    I have been having the same problem with the MS906. Even on 2018-2019 vehicles, it fails to ready the VIN automatically. The unit is not left in the sun. I'm not clear how the sun affects one specific function, and not others.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
