Connection problems.

Hello,
Recently i did an ecu scan to my fiat brava IAW49F but the last time when i did it I connected the + wire to the - of the car battery and the - of the pin connector to the + of the car battery. The result was a melted insulation of the black (-) wire of the 16 to 3 pin connector, after that I managed to connect to my ecu but for some reason the last time i tried to do it I couldn't. I checked with a multimeter the 16 to 3 pin connector and everything seems to be ok . I changed all the drivers downloading new ones from the internet. Unfortunately I can not connect to the ecu. The cable I use is vag-kom 401 and the software is multiecuscan 2.3.1. on windows XP. All the settings are done strictly like shown in the instructions but I keep receiveing a message to check my settings. If it does any matter - I have tried to install Lexia on my laptopo but I have never connected a diagnostic cable for PSA vehicles. After I experienced this problem i uninstalled lexia and installed new drivers VTD and frameserver 4.0 .Can anyone help me? I need to know is my cable working or not, i opened the blue case of the cable but it looks ok, there are no visual damages. Whe I tried to connect to the ecu the light works ok, the software of the computer recognized it too. menawhile I purchased an elm 327 cable. Will i be able to clean errors on my airbag with it ?
Thank you in advance !
