What was stopping Tech2 talking to Engine ECU?
« on: 21 May 2011, 20:35:01 »
For the past month or so, I haven't been able to tech2 the engine ecu (and other stuff on diag pin 7) on the MV6.

After a few hours, I've now found why...  ...any guesses?

Hmmm, one of those isn't presented on pin 7 is it?  ::)

I'm saying Telematics at a guess.

The clue is that it took me some time (though I was suffering the aftermath of Stella and Vodka from last night), therefore it was either not the most obvious component, or it was difficult to see/find ;)

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
