hey i was wondering if anyone has come across this problem with nissan datascan, it loads up and i have it plugged upto my car and when i click on connect it finds my ECU and connects to it and then the program shuts down without any error message and then the laptop shuts down. I had this problem once before and i remember that i figured out what was wrong and got it working but that was a few years ago and i carnt remember what i did to fix it. I took auto find and auto connect off and i set the port manually and i even tired changing the port number from COM3 to COM2 but it still shuts down on me, i thought it had something to do with port numbers but maybe i was wrong. If anyone else has had this problem and knows how to fix it pls pls pls let me know cos its so fustrating lol

nah i just used a different program instead, i got lots of nissan scantool type of programs.

I will have another play with it and work out how to fix it again cos i did fix it last time but i just forgot what i done but i should be able to get it going if i spend a bit of time working on it.

Also does anyone here have the EcuXtend pocketpc program??

yeah i can use any other program like nistune, consult ect and they work fine. I tryed datascan scan on two laptops one with xp and other with windows 7 and still same issue. so im assuming its a driver issue. I need to use datascan for the hicas diagnostics

no worries josho i will try work out how to get it working again, i have done it before so i can do it again, i will start working out how to fix it tomorrow and i will let you know as soon as i work it out again

    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
