Galletto Connection Issues... (and now MPPS queries...) - Toms306 - 24-10-2014

Cant seem to read the ECU on the Focus. Tried both EDC16 drivers, and both laptops (XP and 8.1) and always get the same result after several minutes of it trying to read...

Any ideas?

Cheers

OBD loose? connections are always a bit dodge arent they?


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... - Toms306 - 24-10-2014

Seems pretty solid tbh, and I don't have any issues connecting the ELM cable so I think it's possibly a software issue or more likely user error lol.


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... - Toms306 - 25-10-2014

Anyone else? Sad

Bring to garage ill pop our diag on at dinner and check if you want. Smile


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... - Toms306 - 25-10-2014

Thanks for the offer but what are you gonna check? The OBD port is fine, I have the ELM plugged in every few days lol.


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... - bashbarnard - 25-10-2014

Just thinking if yours doesnt read mine might. Just to rule it out man.


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... - Toms306 - 25-10-2014

It's only the Galletto that doesn't read, everything else does. Unless you've got any mapping cables? MPPS or KWP or anything?

Also, not sure if it means anything but the Galletto plug flashes red and green while it's trying to read?


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... - jammapic - 25-10-2014

I don't like Galletto for this reason - more issues than success in my experience.

MPPS all the way.


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... - Tom - 26-10-2014

Bin it and get an MPPS. Friend if mine has been through like 5 gallettos and my first mpps is still absolutely perfect. Only paid like 12quid for it!


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... - Toms306 - 26-10-2014

I've mapped loads of VAGs and HDis with this galletto, original one since 2012 without issue so far lol. Suppose I could get an mpps as well though!


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... - Toms306 - 29-10-2014

Solved the issue.....got an MPPS instead.

But it takes a lot longer than Galletto....10 mintues to read! Confused

But now I'm confused, the file it's saved is 2000(ish)kb. I thought map files were 512kb? Confused


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... - Midnightclub - 29-10-2014

Depends on the car/ECU mate, although that sounds pretty high

In terms of it taking 10 mins to read, there's normally a slow/fast setting? or at least there is in KWP


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... - powerandtorque - 29-10-2014

Can't speak for the Focus, but the MPPS takes less than a minute to read the data off a 306 HDi (EDC15) ECU

If the file is larger on your ECU then I'd expect it to take longer to read, but 10 minutes does sound like an awfully long time.


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... (and now MPPS queries...) - Toms306 - 29-10-2014

Hmm... Confused


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... (and now MPPS queries...) - jammapic - 29-10-2014

Tom, that's right. Later ECUs have more in them so the file is bigger. Remember, its not just a "map" in there. There's tonnes of info in it.

Some ECUs take ages to read, take the ECU in a JTD Alfa, 45 minutes to pull off a 2meg file, and then about 3 minutes to write back!!


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... (and now MPPS queries...) - Toms306 - 29-10-2014

45 mins? Surprised the battery lasts long enough lol. lol

So this file will be fine to send to you then, yeah? Smile


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... (and now MPPS queries...) - jammapic - 29-10-2014

No problem. Totally normal.


RE: Galletto Connection Issues... (and now MPPS queries...) - Toms306 - 29-10-2014

Ah that's good then!

Maybe I just worry too much. Itwasntme
