Alfa 159 2.0 Jtdm

Hello!

I have a problem in connecting to my 159 2.0Jtdm.

Problem is, that FES connects only to the engine ECU, but not to any other ECU!
The error FES states is: ECU connection failed. check your cable and serial port settings. (This is the same with all modules exept engine, which works an ABS an Xenon which do need an adapter...)

My System:
Windows 7 Starter
HP Mini
32 bit, 1 GB RAM, 1,66GHz Intel Atom

Port Settings in Device Manager:
COM13 (Seriell Port)
38400 Bits/sec
Datenbits 8
keine Parität
Stoppbits 1
keine Flusssteuerung
advanced settings:
receiving bytes: 4096
seinding bytes: 4096
BM Einstellungen; latency: 1 ms (tryied as well as 16)
Timeouts Lese und Schreib- = 0

I have the new Version FES 3.1.1. FULL VERSION (registred version)

My Interface is a AutoDia E327: Scanning for available interfaces, FES says, that it has a ELM chip 1,4. Testing the interface with the button "Test" in FES, gives excellent results. "Should connect with al CAN-moduls."

I tried to set "HighLatencyMode" in FES, checked the port settings (port number xy, speed etc). It should work!
I know that for two Units I do need an adapter. But how it is described in the FES-HP only for ABS and Xenon Headlightes. So all the other units should work without an adapter.

Is anybody out there with a 159 2.0 jtdm, who has successfully scanned his car?

Yani, can you help me? I tried to describe the problem as detailed as I could.

Whats the reason for the problem? FES says that Interface is great, testing is good, connection with engine works great.
But all other units, as f.i. dashboard, doors etc does not connect at all.

Thank you!

Hello

What is displayed in the first two columns of the Test?
Is there a v1.5 or v1.5 displayed. ?

If one appears, the interface v1.5 you should open on the back and remove the resistor R04 (121). Then it should work.

if in the first two columns will appear v1.4 sign up here again.

Hi there!

thanks for your reply!

I checked that issue about the v 1.5, by testing the interface and scanning for interfaces in FES.
Result is, that, there´s no v1.5, but a 1.4, like you said!

Thats whats stated:
COMMAND: ATZ
RESPONSE: ATZ ELM327 v1.4>
COMMAND: ATI
RESPONSE: ATI ELM327 v1.4>

What do you recommend as next step in problem solving?
I use a Netbook, do you think thats why its not working? But still it has 1GB RAM...

Thanks a lot! I appreciate!
Greetings!

Hello

Have you installed the necessary drivers for the ELM?
The ELM is recognized in the FES / settings?

Please make a screen shoot from the test of the interface and put it here.


There are some ELM v1.4 interface but which are recognized as v1.5. With this interface can not connect to CAN.

You can remove this interface at a resistor (R04) and then it is fully usable

All you'd have one Screnn the test set here, where you can see what it is.
