Hi All,
just wondering if there is a general issue with connecting to these old ECU's with current versions of MES ?
I need to connect to an IAW16F ECU in a cinquecento and am using a K-line interface - so what seems to happen me is that MES briefly connects, displays the ISO code briefly and then goes back to the seelction screen - no error or disconnect message is given, and it looks like it would allow further operations if it didn't bomb out. Even if I disconnect the ECU, MES briefly displays the screen with the ISO code etc before again bombing back out to the selection screen - in this case I still don't get a "failed to connect" message.
I know MES used to work with these old ECU's ok.. so just wondering if anything has changed or anyone else is having issues with these old cars..
thanks..

Re: IAW06 and 16F connection issues
Should work OK.
Regressions can sometimes happen.
You can create a log report for MES support.
After it/you disconnect there is a PDF button net to the Simulate button on the home screen. These is also a log file in the program's directory. Check this for any errors.

Re: IAW06 and 16F connection issues
Hi There,
I tried the simulation mode and it works as expected.. log file just has the ISO code, no mention of any error message. I guess it could be a regression, a forum search didn't reveal anyone else with the same issue but then again, how many would be trying to connect to a system that old ?
I might leave this here for another while before raising a bug report just to see if anyone else has same issue..
Thanks..

Hello,
after a search it seems this may be happening others (see thread with a 166 dashboard issue). I will test again and possibly try IAWscan. I also have two old bravo airbag modules with K-line - I will test these and see if the same issue occurs and generate report and log files - they don't show much - in the below example you can see the ISO code but that's it.. incidentally if I pick the wrong ECU (e.g. IAW06F the error message for the "wrong ISO code" does appear, after which MES jumps back to the selection screen - normally even with incorrect ISO code or module selection you would get to continue (at least on older versions). I will try older versions also to see where this issue appeared..
Thanks,
Owen.
