Ms2 connection issues

Had my ms connected and was tuning the idle last night but i went outside this morning to continue and for some reason it isn't detecting anymore. Same cord, same usb port, same computer... Connected to my fathers car that has ms and it detects fine..???

Could you try a port check and post a screen shot of the results? Any chance you've blown a fuse or something that is killing power to the MS2?

You have to have TunerStudio and anything else that uses COM ports closed to do a port check.

No response at all - is the MS operational, just not responding, or are there other issues?

There's a really good MS2 serial troubleshooting guide in the manual. Go through it and post your results. Here is the link
