I know this has been beaten to death in the past but please bear with me.
I've had Turbolink 2.1 for about 8 years or so and love it. Couldn't be without it. A while back it started to give crazy data - non sensical numbers each frame - mph jumps all over the place as does voltage, O2's int, blm's in fact everything. Throws dozens of codes a frame.
Any way, had no diagnostic reason for it untill recently so I thought I would dig out the ancient laptop and try again. I re-did all the grounds, cleaned all the contacts to the ecm, everything I could think of to no avail. Then suddenly it decided to work!!! Praise the lord, a miracle.
Anyways, got a bad problem with gas mileage which I posted else where on the forum. Plugged in T/link......you know what's coming. Same loopy data.
Searched the archives and tried all I could. The only other thing I found on the forum was snipping the orange aldl wire. Still the same.
If you're tuned in Ken, I mailed you a few weeks back about upgrading to the windows version but held back till I get this problem sorted - if I can.
All the setting inside the Tlink programe for the laptop etc are the same as ever, and I know the cable is getting on a bit now. But if anyone can point me in the right direction I would be most grateful.
Thanks,
