Hello, long story short Nick at old jaguar is programming my 02 x-type to recognize that it is now a manual. My Da-vina j2534 cable we think has a short as we can’t communicate with the ecm. I check the resistance on the CAN and Serial Data wires. They check out good at .5 ohms. So the only other thought is that my j2534 has an issue. I’m in Olympia and need to borrow/rent a VCM1 or mongoose pro cable. The car is currently bricked with the ecm coding showing all 0’s. It’s ready for the new software. I have a Panasonic tough book cf-19 running SDD v140. Please help, thanks!

 

Ended up buying one. So now I have a toughbook cf-19 running SDD 118.5 and a genuine VCM. If anyone needs a hand I’m in Olympia and usually game to help others.

 

Is the car running?

 

Yup, the car is on the road. I’ve put about 500 miles on so far. Happy to be rid of that auto.
