you need the correct cable. That one will not work.

 

thanks

 

why wont that work. it has alot of pins in it

 

Because the tactrix cable is not just a cable, it's an entire interface. You can argue all you want, but I'm telling you, 100% it won't work.

 

ok so the tactrix isnt just a cable. that what i was kinda thinking. thanks

 

evoscan is designed to work with a J2534 compatible cable.

ecuflash is designed to work specifically with a Tactrix OP2.0 cable.

you cable isn't an OP2.0 so it work work.
