Hi guys, i bought FiatEcuScan today and was mighty excited to use it on my car but to my dissapointment, the only thing i could access was my Ecu to reset parameters and all that, but thats not really what i bought it for i wanted to use it to reset my service indicator and go into the body computer to check things out there like the seat belt bing and stuff like that but i only get a error when i try to access that stuff as if the cable is unplugged and when i scan it only picks up the engine ecu also, am i doing something wrong? according to the website diagram of cars i should be able to access all of these things with the standard elm cable.

I have the ELM327 Ver 1.5a interface so i shouldnt have problems but i am

ok think i found my problem, i have a chinese cheap-o replica, apparently you dont even get a version 1.5a elm327 (sigh) anyway apparently if i have a ver 1.3 it would work so can anyone tell me where i can get a 1.3 for a good price?

OK i fixed my cheap-o!! just opened it up, broke of a certain resistor on the board and viola it works! =)

How did you figure to that?

im an electrical engineer, thought i mentioned it somewhere?

Oh, I forgot about that!

I may need your services after all Benzina, or maybe I should just splurge and get the software and cable for myself anyway.
After my quick oil change on Saturday, I am still getting the "change engine oil" warning, so obviously I need to reset the error now.... I was hoping the car would do it automaticlly, since it reported the error automatically :lol: Wishfull thinking

hehe no problem eric, we must figure out a way to get in touch with each other?

@Zeff: i was just kidding hehe i aint a electrical engineer, my mother told me i must become a lawyer or a doctor or something. so i became a something :cheese:

Anyway i found the solution on the fiatecuscan forums hehe

just a warning for Mito and Giulietta drivers. The elm wont work as can is on pin 1 and 9 where as on other cars its on 6 and 12.. you need a AC3 for it to work
