Title: Car Starts- Can't connect with Vag or Nefmoto Post by: iNSTRUCT on November 04, 2011, 08:25:47 PM Like the topic says- Is it possible if one of the connectors touches a nearby pin, specifically pin 21 or 62 it will cause this issue?
(http://wiki.obdtuning.com/images/a/ac/VAG_ME7.x.jpg) I don't think pin 1 & 2 have touched 3. Thanks in advance. Title: Re: Car Starts- Can't connect with Vag or Nefmoto Post by: iNSTRUCT on November 04, 2011, 10:34:27 PM Since I was using alligator clips I think it's possible 21 or 62 touched 43- Is it possible I could have fried the communication controller?
