Hi Yani,
Installed v2.6.1 and tested on 2 cars today and found some bugs.
Fiat Punto '03 1.2 8v - ELM327 cannot communicate to Body computer.
Alfa 147 2.0 Selespeed - ELM327 cannot communicate to Body computer.
At the same time, having difficulty on KKL cable to talk to engine ECU. Either totally failed or something just able to connect once in many attempts.
regards, yincar
v2.6.1 bugs
Re: v2.6.1 bugs
Hi,
As I wrote in the PM this should fix your problem with the KKL interface:
Go to Settings. There is a new setting below interface selection - KWP 2000 Timings. It is available for KKL interfaces only and has 4 options - Default, Optimal, Fast, Slow. Change this setting and try to connect again.
This setting is new in version 2.6 / 2.6.1 and it is related to the optimization of communication speed with some ECUs. It is now possible to read parameters from most engine ECUs with up to 900 readings per minute. This functionality is available only with KKL/VagCom interfaces.
This function, however, is not supported on all ECUs. So, you have to experiment with the settings to see which works best. Also, some of the faster settings cannot work properly on slower laptops.
Are you sure that the ELM interface is working fine? Did it work with previous versions of Multiecuscan?

Re: v2.6.1 bugs
Hi Yani,
Tested all speed mode, KKL is still failed. Sometimes, in ~10 attempts, can connect only once with luck. ELM327 working fine in v2.6, v2.6.1 and v2.5 (downgraded to test). KKL failed to work for engine ECU on FES 2.5, 2.6 & 2.6.1.
Any chance to downgrade further v2.4 to confirm?

Re: v2.6.1 bugs
I found the new bug in ver. 2.6.1. This is problem have only registered users. The problem is when you connect car to FES and after reading everything - all data you get report in notepad document. And later when you want to see what kind of errors you get you can check informations you need!
This version only records when you connect to Engine module. But if you connect to ABS, or AIRBAG or other module you will NOT get any data for that! Here is example:
I should get this:
ECU ISO Code: Ax xx xx xx xx

CONNECTED TO:
ALFA 156 1.9 JTD

When I install ver. 2.5 everything is working OK! I got all reports! But on this version (ver. 2.6.1) there is a bug!![Rolling Eyes :roll:](./images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif)

Re: v2.6.1 bugs
more testing result on v2.6.1. Tested Alfa Romeo GT and result as below. I can only test ELM327 without any modification of interface as I'm still waiting to modify pins.

Re: v2.6.1 bugs
Seems that your ELM interface cannot connect to CAN network. This is usually caused by electric problem in the interface.
There is a special thread about this issue:

Re: v2.6.1 bugs
Hi Yani,
Thanks for the quick tips. That's very disappointing to me as I bought it from http://www.ecufix.com/shop/index.php?ma ... hhgfrfdv33 which is indicating genuine v1.4 and quite expensive. I'm expecting good interface for CAN but it let me down. Looks like i have to perform surgery on my cable and let you know what kind of PCB is inside.

Re: v2.6.1 bugs
Yes m8 your interface it is Chinese CAN issued genuine one.
All that kind of interface like yours have this problems. It is not hard to fix it, don't worry. And you don't need special skils for this.
Good luck

Hi Yani,
I have confirmed my interface cable is the culprit by using another cheap ELM327 i bought which work like charm.
I will post my bad interface picture in other post. Thanks.
