Crap Serial --> USB Converter ?
1 Attachment(s)
I get this error message and the dials are all flashing as if its losing and gaining the connect really quickly....
All I have done is remove the fuse and plug the PnP in, the engine was not running (despite the RPM reading) |
Which one are you using?
|
looks more like the flashed failed.

oh no. i cant read. :) Jerry tests them all on his car before sending out.
plug it in, attach it and run portcheck.exe or whatever it's called. |
Generally that error message is caused by different code in the MS than what is provided in the vehicle profile. Call DIY, they'll fix you up.
|
I still thinking its the serial converter, I've got access to another one tomorrow so I'll try that.
|
I bought an identical usb to serial cable and it does the EXACT same thing.. Won't read my LC1 wideband OR megasquirt. Waste of 4$. lol.
|
Excellent, thats what I wanted to hear... in a weird way.
Have you found a cheap one that does work? |
The DIY autotune one obviously works well and it's relatively cheap. You can find it elsewhere online as well. I think Fry's might carry it.
I use the expensive radioshack one because i needed it bad and it's really long so that helps my situation. It's like $40 though, so def not cheap. The RS one has been perfect since i bought it. Not everyone has this experience though. |
The one DIY sells is the USB 2920, available at Fry's or through Jerry. He's said in the past that he's had trouble with every USB -> serial adapter except that one.

I have an IOGear that reboots my laptop. I went PCMCIA.
|
I've tried it with my dads and it works fine, so borrowing that from him for a while.
|
I had a belkin that would reboot XP as well. Real PITA.
