ChefRacer Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Ok guys, I'm pretty sure I've installed my cable correctly, and I've downloaded the definitions into romraider, but romraider isn't detecting my ecu when it's hooked up. I still have my AP hooked up, I'm trying to make sure that this works before I dissconnect and sell my AP. Would the AP V1 block romraider from being able to read the ECU entirely? I was under the impression that it would just stop you from being able to write to the ECU. Thanks alot for your help guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeleodee Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Your APv1 will not block romraider from reading data reported in your ECU. Furthermore, if you have an APv1, you can just use that cable to datalog, you just need to purchase a serial to usb adapter and run the proper driver for your OS. Nevertheless, if you've already got the Vag-com cable, make sure that romraider is reading to the correct COM port on your laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChefRacer Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Rom raider is reading the correct com port, I'm planning on selling the AP to go with an open source tune. I'm just getting really frustrated here. I just un-installed the drivers for the cable 4 times and reinstalled them again, I just re-downloaded all of the logger and ecu definitions, and even re-booted my laptop a couple of times for good measure. It still doesn't recognize the car being on the other end of the cable. The stupid blue Leds on the end of the cable light up when I plug it into the car, and I've made sure that that is really tight in there. I don't know what to do next.

matt Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Exactly what kind of cable are you using? E.g. OpenPort 1.3, OpenPort 2.0, eBay special, etc. Try your cable+laptop on other Subarus. Try your cable with someone else's laptop. Try someone else's cable with your laptop. If you were in my area I'd help you out with all that, but I'm across the country from you.

ChefRacer Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 It's a vag-com cable, I'm going to be trying those options, just trying to get in touch with people in my area who use this type of setup as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepuma Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I can't get this f*cking thing to work. I installed the drivers from ftdi's site. I'm using win 7 64bit, selected 4800 speed in device manager settings. Learning view says ecu ID not found/not supported. RR logger will conenct for 2 sec then d/c then connect then d/c all over again- sounds like the speeds aren't the same, though I changed it from 9600 to 4800(or whatever) and it still won't work.

iNVAR Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) Try these drivers. This is what I use with my older vagcom cable and it works for everything (LV, ECUFlash, RR). I am on Win7 64 bit. Before using those drivers, you need to completely removed the drivers from Windows and actually have it remove the driver/software too. http://www.crimetank.com/misc/CDM20602.zip Important note: if you have a newer vagcom cable, you will have to find an older version of ECUFlash (1.29) to flash. Everything else will work just fine though. I don't know when the switch was made on the vagcom cable. I have an old one I bought about 3 years ago, and new one I bought about 2-3 months ago. New one needs old ecuflash.

Firepuma Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 i uninstalled and deleted previous drivers, plugged cable in, directed it to your posted drivers, still nothing for lv and rr.... 4800 speed selected... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leviman Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) A couple of the last few guys just sound like they have an unsupported ROM. I just bought a VAG-COM and downloaded the rom flawlessley off mine. I'm going to go out and play with the logger next. Mine is blue and I got it from amazon. Oh and also my car (2006 2.5i) has ECU revision E2VG212B and the E2VG222B one is almost identical. All tables seem perfect.

jjtjp Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Hi, I just got my vagcom and am able to see everything in Romraider on both my Windows 7 x64 and my ancient xp laptop. However, I cannot get ecuflash to work with either. I have tried both 1.29 as well as the most up to date one. I have use the openport drivers, tried the other ones (ftsomething, i think) I get the same message each time: denso challenge-response challenge is XX XX XX XX XX response is XX XX XX XX XX If romraider works, and ecuflash recognizes my cable, why can't I connect? I've tried also every combination of green connectors. Passenger kick panel, driver's knee plate. I really don't have the money for a tactrix right now. Any help?? ..please?!

jjtjp Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Is it possible that my ecu has been locked out? What would this look like if so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
