Bosch Motronic M1.5.5 on Bravo 1.2 16v CF2

Post by Vincenze » 04 Apr 2010, 14:58

Yani,

Nice work. I'm a novice in respect of diagnostics but this software gives the man on the street a chance to know what the garage knows!!

But... what cable do I use in a Bravo 1.2 with Bosch Motronic M1.5.5

And...where is the connector because there isn't one central one in the cockpit.

Thank you for your efforts

Vince

You'd need the same cables as Mark has here

A VAG COM USB to 16 pin OBD connector and then a 16 pin to 3pin connector although you can improvise and simply connect the pins to the Bravo 3pin connector and battery positive with normal wire but i'd go for the proper connectors

Your 3 pin connector should be in engine bay, passenger side |UK|, near the suspension strut

I got mine from Ebay from a seller in China quite some time ago so I can't give you a link but I shouldn't think you'd have trouble finding them still on Ebay.

Be aware that, when connecting, the Bosch ECU has, I believe, to be"woken up" in order to get information from it and it may not connect first time. Keep trying, turn off ignition and back on again and then retry. I was able to read fault codes and clear them which was all I really wanted but haven't managed to get anything else working just yet but that was using ver 1.6
