Help with Vagcom connection
Hey
I have a generic, ebay, jem-auto, vag com cable. I bought it to reset some lights such as inspection 1 ect.
I have the
311.2 shareware software from ross-tech.
Once you start it tells you to :
Go to options, click the right com port, and save it.
No com ports appear to be right as i get " Com port status: inaccesable" After pressing test on each of the ports.
ANy clues here. I did install the correct drivers, At least i believe i did. I located and downlaoded them on the ross-tech site.
Thanks a lot and any help would be appriciated before i rip this cord in half.

Download the 4XX version of Vag-COM. (I can't remember the actual number but it starts with 4)
Open Windows Device manager.
Look for the the name of your cable; Double click on it.
Read the port that was assigned to it. If it is not assigned to COM 1, 2 , 3, or 4, use the device manager and assign it to one of those ports.
Go back to VAG-COM and test that port.
Make sure the key is in the "on" position before you test the connection.

VAG-COM License with HEX-USB+CAN Interface
VAG-COM License with KEY-USB Interface
What would you recommend for my car and a beginner tunner like myself?
I think it calls for the CAN interface since my car is newer on the website, but I might be wrong ...
Not cheap either! WOW
