Hi All
Im pretty sure im opening myseld up for a verbal beating here but in the beggining of 2009 i went onto the mighty ebay and purchased for myself an OBD cable for connecting to my laptop. it came with lots of freeware inc Digimoto, vagcom, scan tool etc etc. Problem is i've only ever got it to work once on my brothers Audi A4 and that was a fluke.
My laptop runs Vista but i run the lead and programs in XP service pack 2 compatability mode, but to be sure i have also run it on the inlaws XP laptop.
I have checked the com port modes loads and loads of times and as far as i can see everything checks out as it should. It always says it cant find the interface (or other words to that effect on different programs)
Im sure there are a lot of opinions on these but what i really want to know is what am i doing wrong?
By the way I have been trying it today on a Citroen c3 but have also tried it on a vx combivan and my wifes Audi 80 all to no avail.
Please someone give me something really obvious i haven't yet thought of.
And a happy new year to all!!!!
