Title: USB Driver
Post by woody1966 on May 26^th, 2006, 12:05pm

Does anybody have a copy of the USB driver from the OBD-2 site that they can email me? The only link I can find to it doesn't work and it appears that the techies are on holiday for another week. Any help would be greatfully accepted.

Paul,

Thanks for the driver, but I still can't get the thing to connect. Think it's the naff serial-usb adapter I bought. Managed to find a cheap laptop, complete with serial port, on ebay so when that arrives I'll have another go. Thanks for the help anyway.

Hi Paul,

I remember it being a real pig to get it to connect when I first started scanning, esp when it kept saying "Busy signal" >:(.
I think 1 of the settings in VE program can be set to "keep attempting to connect on Busy signal" (or something like that) and when I did that things improved no end. As I said in the email, it links up straight away now.

Good luck

Paul

www.obd-diag.de ( i,m from holland ,40 miles from the AUTOBAHN so i buy a lot in germany)

Would it be possible that not all error codes are read with an other lead ?
