Parking sensor / Fiat Stilo.

Post by Jojjo » 06 Jun 2010, 10:56

Hello. I have had 100% success with this program since the early versions on several cars, like Fiat Stilo and Alfa 156.

This weekend I hooked up to my friends fully loaded 2002 1.6 Stilo. He's got parking sensors and some gadgets I don't have. Anyway there was a fault at the parking sensors, which shows up every startup and every time the reverse is engaged. Also a yellow hazard lamp is lit on the dash.

But I couldn't manage to find the fault. I used my modified VAG cable, but couldn't find any other fault than a logged fault at the fuel level sensor, which we cleared.

Should I perhaps have used the ELM instead?

Regards, Morten.

There is no way to connect to the Parking sensors with VagCom interface.
You need ELM 327.

Thanks. I had a feeling I should have brought that cable aswell - especially as he didn't tell me about the service interval that needed resetting. :lol: Will bring that cable with me next time.

Again... this is a great piece of software.
