Most probably your interface is not properly flashed to work with latest diagbox. You need to flash 2 µc (fujitsu and winbond) or you can try to downgrade firmware and use diagbox 5.29 or lower.

But when he told connect VCI I pressed the next button he started to work (i heard the relays in the lexia) but cant read the VIN.

i will try a later version of the DB but i hope somebody can tell me what?


maybe can hax the usb with softver instead of hard flash?

Thanks


RE: VCI connection progblem - paro44 - 06-02-2014

The only other "dirty" solution that i know is, to prevent diagbox from updating the firmware.
Downgrade firmware from 4.3.0 to 4.2.4 and then edit the "ap.ini": MAJ_COM = TRUE to: MAJ_COM = FALSE

But i'm not sure if it will work properly, it is not recommended.

Your interface should work with diagbox 5.29 or lower or lexia/pp2000.

If you heard the relays in the lexia truly, This could be a hardware problem. The mechanical relays.
