Which Interface - 2012 Giulietta won't connect
Posted: 18 Jul 2024, 18:30
Hello all
Its been a long time since ive needed to use the scantools, things have behaved very well and ive had various other car brands, but i find myslef now in possession of a 2012 Giulietta, 1750 TBI Cloverleaf, and have upgraded to the latest 5.2 version, only to discover that current crop of (elderley) cables will not connect and communicate.
Whilst i read that this is apparently a common problem these days, and also recommendations of snipping and replacing resistors, capacitors etc, is there not just a verified cable interface that works, and that is available at a resonable price for a novice such as myself?
I see lots of "modified" interfaces on ebay etc, but so many, and such a varied price range, is there such a thing as a known and recognised solution to this problem?
My old cables don't connect to any ecu at all on this 2012 Giulietta, so i might aswell just get a new interface, but which one?
Thanks in advance
