Looking at that then it looks like the counter is in the software if that's the case what's stopping you loading it on a VM and reload when counter is at 0 or I'm I more confused than usual :D

guys how check counter? for me not display it...

some cp clones displays counter at first time when you use write function, some of them will display counter after 100-150 writes. I don`t remember where but I saw some times ago the chinese web page with the fresh flashed chip for $40 and *.bin file for flashing yourself the chip for ... $200. So if this file exist on the market will be leak sooner or later and ....

the counter is in the bigger uc on the main board. you can`t read it bcoz it`s protected. As I wrote earlier you can find and buy flash file, a new one box for $70 without cables, or .... buy this - Indigo PCB & SW (http://indigopcb.org/manufacturer.php?id_manufacturer=5) and start your own production ;-)

this is the problem with clones only 80% of functions work at best. And if its a programmer like carprog is either diagnostically or direct, then its vital it does it correctly.

Plus when customer phones and says "can you do this job for me. And you think "Carprog will do that".

Customer brings you vehicle or you travel 20miles to vehicle. And then your honky tonk carprog wont do it, and then your Honky tonk carprog creates another problem on the vehicle.

Who you gonna call??? Dont think Codecard will be that interested. lol

These clone carprogs are ok as a toy, but you wouldnt catch me using them professionaly on someones vehicle.

But good luck to you guys, who have alot bigger balls than me.:eating:

did post in the other thread about think tach universal after 50 IN-corrections it would lock out, there was a cheet for it, need to find it and review the thread, don't know if this logic can be applied to this system.

Not sure if you have tried this again or if someone else has mentioned it since but I have just tried mine on a 2005 focus without any issues... But you don't use the blue ford plug aswell... Just use the A1 lead.. also done a 2010 fiesta through obd socket... Read and saved chip first on both cars... Then changed them... No problem... Won't connect with blue lead though...

Hi dave11674!
I have the same problem.
This is from CarProg repair kit.pdf :
"If your CarProg not work - make test with adapter A9 first!!! If CarProg hardware test fail - in most cases you just need exchange 4x 74HC125 integrated circuit. Exchange all 4 74HC125 together!!!"
Maybe this will help you.

im just about to order 5 of these but replace them with the ST micro ones as the NXP ones seem a little cheeeeep :)

also i swapped the chips over from teh D1 adapter board and getting same problem
so ill swap all 5 out for ST ones n let u know.

will report back in a few hours.

UPDATE...

can you guys post up MCU shots pls ?
im sure i have a leg slightly moved over

1) Where did you get the 74h from - cost?

Maybe I'm wrong or my carprog clone it's different from yours, I saw your pictures and if I test the lines in my carprog and put the cable exactly as yours there is a shortcircuit between the pin 7 and 8 in the DB25 connector, anyway I run the hardware test in my carprog and all it's OK (without the cable, I think It's wrong for mine)...

Hello. At me ARM probably died. Isn't defined by USB port. Looked for the reason why doesn't read 24C.... Short circuit under the processor seemed that. Measured by a tester, cut a path. And all ceased to be defined. Who can is rich with a flash from this stone (option to change if)

hi mate

i got the 74HC's from down road to me (farnells)
only a 5 min drive so nice n handy

grabbed myself a few 95 eeproms too
so i decided to have a play with the A5 adapter to rean n write to the 95160

so went to eeprom n selected my device
read the chip = OK
loaded a pug 206 bsi dump on it and wrote = OK

so went to 206 bsi program and tried to read KM = BULLSHIT
would not read
said not responding ?!?!?!?!

wtf is it with this thing !!!

but if i go back to eeprom and do it directly its fine ?!?!?

Just wondering why so many people use Carprog as eeprom programmer. It is much easier to use an external eeprom programmer such as Beeprog for example than complain about something doesn't work. Let's leave this tool for odometer correction or pin reading in Opel cars. China Carprog is good value for money but I would never risk reading an eeprom with it having Jetprog on the shelf.

If you try to work with a Vw Micronas + 24xx dashboard and your carprog can't read any 24xx eeprom directly, how do you will make the job? I don't even think to make a test with this kind of dashboard, you will have a bad result, maybe an useless dashboard...

Looking at codecard site for the repair kit I can see 4x 22uF capacitor to eventually replace yours if carprog not working. Now looking at the clone if I'm not mistaken there are 10uF capacitors... I'm I right? Can anybody confirm this? Regards.

Because it is more easy to read / write in-circuit compared desolder/solder the eeprom .. I supose !

At me the memory chip (24C...) - probably overheated. The processor wants that that from it to consider (I it tried to consider in a programmator as I2C eeprom - turned out nothing). Who can be knows that it for a chip. Or there are its contents. Thanks

Meat-head, "go to google and download the datasheet for a 93C46". Anybody who actually decides to follow your usual useless information will find that a 93C46 has the ground on pin 5. If you don't know what you are talking about, Don't bother posting. Arthur.

If the ground is, as stated on pins 3&4. Then it is definitely NOT a 93C46. What it is I don't know. That is why I did not try to be clever like you and post what it is not. By the way, mind the language, there are young people who read these posts. Still waiting! Arthur.
