I could never get the FTDI drivers to work with my VCDS cable had to install the Ross-Tech drivers, see here.

AGREED! Use the Ross-tech VCP driver!

IIRC I had to mess around with the driver after installation.  If you didn't follow the instruction here with the Ross Tech driver, try again.

BTW, from experience, ME7L works better through the virtual com port than directly to the RossTech USB interface api.

In any case, get VCDS working first, then nef, then ME7l thru com (vcp)

Yep, i installed the drivers properly.

VCDS Works.

Nef sees and can read the cable, but i cant establish a connection.

ME7L doesn't even let me know if it can see the cable Huh

Could be nef and me7 are not compatible with that ecu. Anyway, its just the v8.. Almost no tuning does much on that motor

mine's not just a v8 lol

Anyway I FIGURED IT OUT.

Went back into the CMD and did the whole -c connection parameters bit and found out it was the address/speed.

ME7L GUI doesnt offer a way to change the address, unless i just dont know how.

Visual ME7L and Nef Flash/Log do! So i was able to establish a connection. *wipes brow*


Thanks for all the input in this thread. Smiley
