I don't get why you keep arguing it "should" work. It doesn't. ECUTek have set it up that way. The cable has certain level of "encryption" that couple with the USB dongle is unique to each cable and its only programmed by ECUTek. Yes all cables look the same, the programming on all is not the same.
In addition on why the cable is so expensive (which is a money grab by the way) I wrote on another thread:

I'm not defending ECUTek here because the cable is extremely overpriced, but another reason for this proprietary cable is to keep things as closed as possible and try and prevent their methods to be stolen as it has happened in the past.

They hold the key, they have a monopoly, until anyone else cracks the ECU. Also, this is what happens when things get stolen, they closed everything out to prevent their methods to be stolen again.
