You might try the 145/146 forum but there are threads all over the place on ecu and airbag diagnostics. I'm still trying to get mine working. I thought I'd followed all the advice but can't get the laptop to recognise the interface, or is it the interface that's not recognising the ecu? I dont' know anything anymore!
Waaahh.
To return to the point, perhaps by now any issues with USB interfaces might have been resolved, but there are bluetooth interfaces, just to mess things up more, which might be worth a look.
I know on the PC in the house I keep getting messages that some device or other can run faster and is restircetd bt the machines USB (not USB-2?) So perhaps the older type was slow and interfered with the clocking of the ecu/interface signals. ?????
