Fiat Stilo Connection issues

Post by Mariocinq » 05 Apr 2015, 09:20

Ok, so I own a 2003 Fiat Stilo 1.9 JTD and I have downloaded the Free version on Multiecuscan so I can read the fault codes, I am using a Vagcom KKL cable and I can connect to the ABS and Airbag control units with out an issue but I cant connect to the ECU. Now I have once connected in the past using an older version of Multi, but I did the update the other night with the idea on buying the full version but wanted to check it all worked as I wanted first, But alas it doesn't as I cant connect to the car.

I am Using a Laptop with Win8.1
MultiECUScan 2.4
Vagcom KKL Cable.

Drivers are up to date. this has got me pulling my hair out as my car isn't running right and I cant find out why!!!

Hello Mariocing

What I do not understand?

You can read the error of the engine ECU but do not get a connection ???

But to ABS and airbag you get a connection ??

Have you installed Framework?

Code: Select all

Windows 8 note:
Multiecuscan works fine on Windows 8/8.1, but you have to install .NET Framework 3.5 (which is not installed by default). You simply have to go to Control Panel -> Add remove programs -> Add remove windows components, and install .NET Framework 3.5.
For the CANtieCAR interface you can install the same drivers as Windows 7. 

Which driver has been installed?
CD?
Take one from this link!
2.10.xx or 2.08.xx

Hi, sorry for my tardy reply.

I can connect to the ABS Unit and read codes and parameters fine, same with the Airbag Unit.

I CANT however connect to the Engine Control Unit (ECU) it just comes up with a failed to connect message.

I did install some drivers for the cable when I got it but since then I have updated from MultiECU 1.8 to 2.4, do I need new drivers???

Hello

Do you have the Latency Time changed to 1 ?? (previously 16)

There is no need for new drivers
