Hi,
looking for some assistance. Received a new OFT as a gift, purchased from FT86speedfactory. I'm currently unable to read the ECU.
Background data:
- car was purchased brand new, 120 miles on the clock
- no other tuning has been performed by me
- '14 BRZ Limited
- radio is off, AC is off, radar detector is disconnected, lights are off, doors are closed
1. Connected OFT to laptop, OpenFlash Manager ran updates for several minutes.
2. Connected the OFT to the car, set car to ON (push start button twice, engine off), OFT says ECU is in recovery mode.
3. Disconnected and reconnected ODB cable, in case there was a bad connection. Repeated step 2, same result.
4. Tried to read the ECU info, nothing came back.
5. Disconnected OFT, turned car on, no issues. Turn car off.
6. Reconnected OFT, tried to read again, same issue.
7. Tried to read trouble codes, "operation failed".
8. Turned car on, tried to read live data, "operation failed".
9. Searched the forums for a similar issue, didn't help.
10. Went back to the car, disconnected and reconnected ODB cable, tried again. Same results.
I've read instructions and recommendations on the forum, don't think I'm missing something. Any ideas?
