Also hptuners will connect fine with pcms and so will tazzis SOE, advanced diagnostics and his cluster reprogramming software.
I don't think it the laptop as it's connected to plenty of vehicles without a issue using other software. This cable does get used for tazzis software and havent had a issue with it (except one VZ clubby which I think is a module problem)

It could be borderline signal signal quality and the cable. Is the cable one of ours?

I know we don't like old versions floating around but just for shits & giggles do you want to try this version as I've found it the best to connect to the flash PCM's on bench or in car.

Think its one of mine.
I recon its a computer speed/timing not quite up to scratch like VL mentioned. If Im not mistaken, flashtool searches for at least 25ms of silence after a heartbeat? If the laptop isnt fast enough to record this then could be causing dramas?

Mine finds the heartbeat and instantly sends a request, it doesnt wait for any silence so could be why thats no dramas there.

The aldl cable isn't your one tazzi. The elm is though
Laptop is a Dell Latitude E5420 Core i5 2.5Ghz 4GB 320GB it's a lot faster then what I did have for tuning ( Sony vaio notebook 1.5ghz 2gb ram and junked up.)

Your using a ELM cable to use flashtool?

No I'm using a aldl. I was referring to tazzi when he said thinks I have his lead.
I have the vaio on charge to give that ago aswell. Will try both version of flashtool.
At this stage it's looking like cable or car?
I don't have any friends that have v6's though to try a different vehicle, they all have V8s which require ELM or HPT

Hmm... thats really odd...

Especially if its on the bench... so nothing else would be communicating right.. seems like a true 'wtf' situation.
