Consult Interfact not working

[NewKleer]

depends on the program - scantech nissan is probably the best for figuring this out.

they arent too hard to make urself. ic's are easy to find also (just search ur electronics place/site/shop for 4060 and max232). hardest thing will be the crystal (2.457mhz or anything that can be divided to 153.6khz with the 4060 ic)

I have scantech so I'll give it a go. Thanks for the advice. Hope it works.

also try plug a serial mouse into it and see if the usb/serial port works.

Tried the serial mouse and it worked. I tried the scantech software as well. So I guess I should return it eh?

checked to make sure ur consult port is connected up to ecu? tried it on another car?

[kksh]

Ok, I checked the consult port is connected to the ecu. I tried connecting to the ecu itself. No luck. The USB/Serial adaptor works by the way. Tested it with a serial mouse like you said. No, haven't tried it on another car yet though. Don't know anyone else who owns a skyline.

thats all u can do short of whipping a multimeter out and doing some testing. contact the guy u bought it off and he might be able to tell u if theres any easy way to tell if its not working (im not sure what circuit he's using)

[kksh]

He said that's probably because the cable hasn't been tested on an R32 skyline. Cos it's was made for Z32's. And he's asked me to send it back so he can give me one that's already tested on skylines.
