'03 evo 8 - ecuflash timeout error

Can anyone help me here?



I followed all the steps...tried searching for a similar problem...some people with windows 7 had the same issues but unrelated

I uninstalled and reinstalled the newest ecuflash and my tactrix cable is brand new 2.0 rev E

Anyone?

enough volts in the car?

that pesky fuse that stops you reflashing ok?

otherwise it looks like a driver issue to me... uninstall ecuflash, uninstall ALL the openport drivers..

maybe install the beta 3000 (or was it 3150)...

car was freshly driven

what is the fuse you speak of?

I didn't manually uninstall the drivers...what is the easiest way to uninstall them?

in add/remove programs if you see any tactric/openport references then uninstall them (after you have uninstalled ecuflash that is)

i cant remember the fuse exactly, search on here.. some guy couldn't reflash or something and he found a fuse was blown...

removed ecuflash and the individual taxtrix drivers that were installed...still doesn't work

I tried evoscan for the hell of it...evoscan doesn't recognize the cable either...I'm starting to think maybe the cable is bad

Resolution Update:

After conversing with John @ Akuma, he determined it was the smaller white "writing" plug that was causing my connection issue.

I sent my cable back to tactrix for a replacement and received a new cable. I was able to read and write to the ECU.

Thanks to John @ Akuma and Amanda @ Tactrix for helping me resolve this issue.
