Use of multiecuscan software

[Jabbee]

I tried to use the Can Bus info function and obtained the information for only a split second and then it broke the connection and the information was lost, any idea why?

Also I have an error code C1522 on the Bosch 5.7 ABS unit, this refers to a fault on the CAN BUS between the ABS unit and the instrument panel. However there appear to be no obviuos signs all the instruments and warning lamps are ok and no flashing odometer.

Could the above items be linked and would your registered software be of benefit in being able to access the body computer?

Can you give us a few details about the car? Brand? Model? Engine? Year? Petrol or Diesel?...

Hi,
C1522- Instrument panel - Can communation,signal mising.
Try unplug the ABS connector and a contact spray to clean, go back, undo mistakes, and probably everything will be fine.

i agree with leopard regarding ABS advice...

did you try only once to connect with CAN Info module or few times? (and each time you got the same problem - it's disconnected in few seconds)
are you using free or registered version?

\Hi,

Will try cleaning contacts on ABS unit,

I was using a unregistered version to connect, computer disconnected a number of times. I now have a registered copy so will try again at the weekend.
