Title: Problem with cable Post by: tnel20 on August 16, 2011, 09:19:51 AM after a fresh install of windows 7 i installed the flashing tool and driver for the cable and was able to read out my flash and erase dtc's. I was also able to flash jude's stage 3- tune/base file. No i am no longer able to connect to the ecu . I'm getting a echo failure from the fdic ship on my cable. so i tried multiple times to get it to work and said screw it and reinstalled a fresh copyu of windows 7 32bit version. installed the driver and tried it. Still getting the same fault. Any clue whats up?

Title: Re: Problem with cable Post by: phila_dot on August 16, 2011, 10:02:13 AM It may not be the cable, but the ECU. Have you tried another ECU?
Title: Re: Problem with cable Post by: tnel20 on August 16, 2011, 10:09:51 AM no i havent tried another ecu yet. as i said i did a fresh install and only have the flashing software on here right now. that would really suck if it was my ecu after flashing it.
I'll see if our shop scan tool can read it properly Title: Re: Problem with cable Post by: tnel20 on August 16, 2011, 10:22:41 AM the log

I dont have another car to scan here at work right now. is there another way to check the cable.

I dont have another car to scan here at work right now. is there another way to check the cable. like i mentioned use the vcds lite version, will allow you to try and read the codes and connect to the ecu. Title: Re: Problem with cable Post by: tnel20 on August 16, 2011, 02:32:07 PM before i reformatted again i had ecux and vcds lite on the comp i couldnt get vcds or ecux to make a connection but the flashing software would connect everytime. I'll d/l it again and try it out
Title: Re: Problem with cable Post by: tnel20 on August 16, 2011, 04:04:44 PM this is what i get with vagcom lite
but i cannot connect to any control modules (http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff314/auditechs4/vagcom-1.jpg) Title: Re: Problem with cable Post by: tnel20 on August 17, 2011, 06:01:33 PM update : used a guys laptop at work and loaded the flashing software on it and driver file and was able to connect first try. Flashed with the fixed file matt did for me . So im guessing its something with my laptop but i have no clue what it might be since it worked on here before. Any clue as to what im doing wrong. His comp has win 7 64 and i have win7 32bit.
