  2. Unplug cable
  3. Restart PC
  4. Download and unextract DRIVER PACK 6
  5. Double-click on 'InstallUSB' to install

  1. Your vehicle is notOBD2 compatible.
  2. Random issues that can be fixed with below solutions..

Here are solutions in recommended order:

  1. First check that ELM327 is physically working (not defunct). When you plug in the cable into a USB port, all the lights on ELM327 interface/device should flash. And then it'll return to 1 red light (power).
    Condition of a defunct ELM327 interface: All lights will not initially flash, and only red light will be on.
  2. Restart computer (while keeping cable connected to laptop). Try again.
  3. Plug USB into different physical port of your computer. Try again.
  4. If all above solutions fail, then we will help you (only if you are Total Car Diagnostics customer). Here's all you need to do..

    Connect ELM327 USB cable into laptop. (Don't need to plug the other end to car)

    Step 1: Go to Control Panel.

    Windows Vista/7/8/10: Control Panel » System » Device Manager
    Windows XP: Control Panel » System » 'Hardware' tab » Device Manager

    Step 2: Expand 'Ports (COM & LPT)' and 'Other Devices'.

    Step 3: Take picture of the screen (Press 'Print Screen' key on the keyboard then paste into any graphics program. Or take shot with camera/phone.)

    Step 4:Contact us and attach the picture. Radio victoria fueguina laptops & desktops driver download.

I utilized these couple of great tutorials, gathered all files needed, made my own .rar files and layed out the instructions as required to getINPA softwareworking on Windows 10 64-bit.

The final tip:

ICOM A2can be used with diagnosis and also programming. While DCAN cable can do all of those it is not safe to program modules because there have been a lot of cases where modules were bricked.You can only get your 1B file using FSC generator with ICOM on an E series car but cannot generate 1B file using a DCAN cable since it will give you an error. There is another way though of getting your 1B file without using an ICOM on an E series through the USB port inside your glovebox accessing the hard drive directly. Rather than going through all those stuff, it is more convenient to just buy the lifetime FSC code and be done with it.

To see if I understood:

Programming= Flashing a module, which means changing the actual software. Best done with an ICOM.

Coding= Reading and writing the memory which contains the configuration. Can be done with a K&DCAN cable.

ICOM: fast protocol, allows to secure flash software and read/write access the entire memory. Similar to JTAG programming.

K&DCAN Cable: slow serial protocol, flashing would take ages and errors could occur. Also, not possible to access the entire memory. Similar to RS232 bootloader access.

You program a module if you want to update the software to a newer one or if you a retrofitting a new module and want to flash it. ICOM is a lot more stable than dcan cable when it comes to programming. And you are right there are modules that takes hours to finish and any interruption in the process will surely brick that module. You can get a cheap china clone ICOM but finding a refutable vendor selling a good working ICOM is not easy. I’ve been using China ICOM from http://www.cardiagtool.co.uk/bmw-inpa-k-can-with-ft232rq-chip.html it’s a good helper in my garage repair work. You can also getrecommendations from others who bought a working clone ICOM.
