I think you mean sync the EWS or anti-theft module with the DME or the engine control computer.
Not sure what, if any Autel tools can do this. Not always as easy as it seems, rarely to non manufacturer specific tools do well with this type of programming.

its not possible to just sync EWS with DME the VIN will be different and it wont work.. but AVDI might just do it i dont have one so i cant say.. -

How do you even know that your friend's diagnosis of the PCM as being faulty is correct? Other than fuel pump access, everything else is pretty much a PITA to deal with and expensive as hell.I wouldn't have it towed over to you. Make sure he has a good battery charger and best of luck. -
