trouble reading properties

Post by rathersmart »

Hi all,
I'm having trouble getting to read the ecm properties. I checked the obd port wiring and it matches the wiring I saw here. Do you have any suggestions?

Code: Select all

[02:54:30:518]  PCM Hammer 012
[02:54:32:255]  Voltage: 12.8V
[02:54:32:271]  Elm ID: ELM327 v1.3a
[02:54:32:302]  ScanTool device ID: STN1155 v4.5.1
[02:54:39:323]  Operating system query failed: Error
[02:54:41:451]  VIN query failed: Timeout
[02:55:07:554]  Will save to C:\Users\rathe\Desktop\PcmHammer012\test.bin
[02:55:17:653]  Querying operating system of current PCM.
[02:55:21:303]  Operating system query failed, will retry: Error
[02:55:24:998]  Operating system query failed: Error
[02:55:25:014]  Unable to get operating system ID. Will assume this can be unlocked with the default seed/key algorithm.
[02:55:25:536]  Unlock was not successful.
[02:55:35:849]  VIN query failed: Timeout

It appears that your PCM is not responding ...

This is most likely either a Wiring issue or a PCM issue.

I highly recommend following this Schematic.
