to cnnecting to the procede i get a message that the ecu
is in boot mode please update firware. i can't seem to get the procede
online. what should i do
thnks

[Fubarsky]

Sounds like ignition may not be on. Got to push start button twice. Maybe ?

[jgrigoros]

please anyone with some ifo on what that means

[jgrigoros]

ignition is on double checked that

[RetroGamerJP]

update the firmware... if it is in boot mode it will allow you to do this even though it shows that the proceed is not connected.

[jgrigoros]

i tried that already and then i try to go online and i get a message
cannot open comm 4
nothing seems to work
now i have the bypass plugs installed

[Fubarsky]

What com is your serial cable? If it's 4 it should connect. Make sure com 4 is what you need to set procede at.

[jgrigoros]

i checked that as well i keep getting ecu in boot mode update
firmware. i've tried many different things and it gives me
the same messages

[jgrigoros]

serial cable is on comm4

[335iheLLraiseR]

select comm 4 THEN plug in the cable. Push the start button twice without pressing the brake. Silly question, but have you unplugged the bypass plugs and connected the PROcede back up?

did you install the drivers for the cable? what operating system?

[jgrigoros]

bypass plugs were out drivers for serial installed
i will try to select com first and then plug serial
also ignition was on

[jgrigoros]

did some checking around and i found someone with the exact same issue
but no information on how to fix this problem
if anyone has had similar issues please i can
use all the help i can get
thanks

[335iheLLraiseR]

did you awitch the power source likethe directions said?

try a different laptop if you can. the PITA way is to drag you desktop out there.

If its a radio shack cable, then go and get yourself another cablle...I had the same issues...Before you go crazy, go to Bestbuys and buy yourself a DYNEX cable and i think your problems will be solved...I personally went through the same thing your going through...Your computer is not compatible with the radio shack cable....ask yourself " how do i even know you have this cable" Its because what u are describing is the same exact thing, as soon as i bought a new cable and uploaded the drivers, it instantly worked!!!

i spoke to him earlier today and he stated it does indeed connect and prompts for a firmware update. at the end of the update it just hangs for like 20 minutes, he said the whole thing just shut down at one time. (laptop) he can't get it past the 100% firmware part.

just wanted to thank everyone for the helpful info
i got to fix the problem yesterday night after work
i had a belkin cable and that was the problem i bought a new cable last night
after work and no problems connected to the procede
loaded the firmware and map in minutes
once again thanks to all
car has no limp modes running very well
just waiting for it to adapt

[cn555ic]

glad u fixed it...most of all the problems not being able to connect to Procede is indeed the cable...Radio shack for one is where most of us have problems, but for those who have success with the cable are far less than the one's that have problems...In your case the Belkin cable

[Fubarsky]

It's always something, ain't it. Glad you found it. Enjoy!

[jgrigoros]

thanks guy's will enjoy
so far so good

[cn555ic]

YOu will love it especially when u can tune it yourself with the torque settings!!! Enjoy
