Just tried it today and guess what, no bloody different. :(
I assume you mean that it cannot communicate with the ABS module ?

If the ABS module is wired to a pin that the dongle doesn't connect to no amount of software updates are going to fix it. I wonder if TIS has wiring diagrams that are easier to read :-\

Is this what you're after Andy?

Looks good. Doesn't quite nail the question of which pin ABS is on in my 2003MY Omega though  :-\

12?
Sure that's what the nameless one says when connecting to the ABS.

Sooo. Link 7 & 12. Linking two K Lines shouldn't be able to cause any harm.

If ABS is on pin 12 and ScanMyOpel is fit for purpose then I should get some live readings (assuming my ABS ECU hasn't started to fail ::))

It's not working with mine Andy. Linked 3,7&12 with kynar wires but still no connection to the ABS ECU.

:-\ Is that a form of wire-wrap?

It's just a bit of thin wire I had hanging about, think my lad used to use it to mod his xbox controllers. Soldered it in to link the pins on the back of the OBD plug then belled it out to check continuity so all three are connected but still no joy talking to the ABS.

Hmm.

If ABS is definitely not on pin 7 then I need to link the pins and report back I suppose (just in case my BT dongle has more success than yours)

I should check which firmware version I have as well.

Wiring diagrams show it to pin 12 on the diag socket (in addition to airbag, climate, servotronic).

First one looks a similar size to mine and you can just close the fuse cover with it plugged in.
A word of warning though don't leave it plugged in overnight or you'll come back to a flat battery. The supply is a permanent live so BT stays on and drains the car's battery. Guess how I know. :-[

Right then - that's the reader bought... :)  I'll remember to unplug it... probably! ::)

SMO or Torque lite - or just download both I guess! ;)

Just bridging the different pins is liable to be unsuccessful, as you will likely wake up multiple ECUs who just talk over each other like project managers, with the same result (ie, FA ever gets done)
