Golf IV R32 :: DEQ Can't Connect To ECU Of Car
May 28, 2015
So picked my .:R up last week from out of state. Go to register it yesterday and find out DEQ can't connect to the car's ECU. So then I took it to my local VW shop and the owner couldn't get the car to connect using VCDS. My immediate thought is, I wonder if he swapped the stereo at one point OR a fuse was blown. Contacted the previous owner and he told me he never messed with the radio on the car, he left it stock (just like the rest of the car - in immaculate condition) and that he had plugged it in last summer and it worked fine then - the last time he used the OBDII port. Today after work I get home and checked every fuse on the drivers side panel of the dash, by pulling each one out and inspecting. Every fuse was good, not one blown fuse.
Still I'm having issues connecting to the ECU... not linked to the K-wire? My buddy and I pulled the deck out on Monday night, and the previous owner had the OEM 30-pin ipod interface installed and it looks like they tapped a few wires on the factory harness. That interface pigtail replaces the factory pig tail for the changer if equipped in the rear, and goes in the big connector in the back of the OEM deck..

Today while hanging out in my gt,i I turned on the stereo using the button wheel on the console. I tried to connect my phone using Bluetooth and noticed that it was grayed out and not an option as an input. I noticed pressing the start/stop ignition button was the only way to get the Bluetooth to connect to the car. Im not sure if the Bluetooth is powered separately or I'm doing it wrong. I just wanna use my phone and listen to music without turning on all the lights and car electronics.

I am unable to connect to a 2005 Prius. I have an Actron CP9190/CP9185 Elite Autoscanner. I have used it many times on other cars and many other Prii but it won't connect to this particular car. ( I have a small car lot and keep 8-12 2004-2009 Prii in inventory) I tried 3 other Prii that I have on my lot and they connect immediately and power up but this one won't.
When I first got this car in it had some lights on and I hooked it up and it worked intermittently. I had to hold the connection just right or I would lose connection. This car had some aftermarket Bluetooth or GPS system that was removed before they traded it and I had my mechanic remove the bird's nest of wires next to the OBD connector that weren't connected to anything. This was about a month ago. This car is a 2005 with 129k.
I had the battery rebuilt before I sold it. The new owner has put over 2000 miles on it since. Now the CEL and triangle are on again and I am trying to see what the codes are but can't connect. Is there a fuse that powers the connector? or is one of the pins a power supply?

I tried connecting to my 99 1.8 Turbo passat with VAG COM, some tool from equu, some other tool from snap-on . All of them are unable to connect (to any module).

How to connect an amp to Eonon d5106 HU. The amp wiring kit I have is this one: [URL]…..
Now, I've managed to route the amp wires from the battery to the amp. Also routed the RCA and the power remote wire. I just don't know where I plug the RCA cable and the remote turn on lead.
Heres a pic of what the back of my HU looks like: (Its the middle pic)
Some guy was telling me to get a multi meter and check the power cable to find out which wire is putting out 12V. Once I find that I can just splice the wire and connect the remote wire to the wire putting out 12V.

It has the typical Triangle of death, brake light, check engine in the dash, along with the PS, main battery and exclamation on the main screen.
The car won't start. 12V battery is newer.
when I try to check the codes on both my scanners, they go wacko. One refuses to connect and the other goes blank, so I can't get any codes.

Occasionally when I start my car my phone won't connect and the only way to get a connection is to restart the car. Trying to connect through the system doesn't work.
Sometimes I have to restart the car several times to get a connection.
The phone is an iPhone 6.

I don't like the idea of Safety Connect, and already have AAA membership. How can I disable Safety Connect? I'm only a few months into a trial membership, do I call toyota to cancel? Or can I just disconnect some fuse?

My Galaxy S3 would auto connect every time I got in the car; good thing since it was in a holster on my belt. Now I have a Galaxy Note 3 and it's paired to the Elantra but it doesn't connect on it's own. You have to touch "Elantra paired" then it says "connecting" and does. I don't see any settings on the phone that are different. I don't like to have to take it off my belt then out of the holster and manually connect every time.

I have a 2008 Passat Lux with an ipod dock in my glove compartment which I would like to turn into an aux input if possible. There is no AUX input under my hand-rest so the ipod connector in my glove compartment seems to be the only way for me to listen to my music from my phone in the car. I have found several cables that convert IPod to 3.5mm jack (and hopeful vice-versa?) Will this work somehow or am I stuck with the ipod connector without any aux input?

How to connect the EVSE without charging? I'm planning to be away for a couple of days and I want to leave it plugged in but keeping the battery empty. Then I want to start the charging remotely so that when I get back, I can immediately drive off with a full charge. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure out a way to connect the EVSE w/o charging.

I have one of the versions of TS and Mini VCI. I've been trying to get this to work for weeks. I've uninstalled, then reinstalled the driver and the software about a dozen times. Figured it must be a faulty cable. So I ordered another cable(BTW, the first cable is an X-Horse, the second cable is a Mongoose.) Same result with the second cable.
I have the X-Horse firmware updater tool installed, so I can check that the cable is indeed recognised by and connected to the computer. When I launch TS, I check the setup, and can see that TS recognises and is connected to the cable. But when I try to connect to vehicle, I get the "Cannot connect to VIM" error.

Working on my car after getting it back from bad mechanic. The jerk didn't correctly reconnect the AC lines and now it's not holding pressure. The leak is right on the firewall, with one big and one small line. When I disconnect the lines I tried to reconnect using an o-ring gasket but it's still not holding pressure. Probably need OE o-rings, but I did this last summer and got it to hold pressure fine.

I bought a fully loaded 2004 Prius last summer with Navigation and bells and whistles. (I love it - even with 110,000 miles!) At the time I had a 3G Iphone (AT&T) and the bluetooth worked for phoning and the cord that came out of the compartment under the stereo worked for me to plug in my phone and play music. Of course there was no music display and I had to get the music going first and I couldn't view it at all while it was plugged in. (Meaning if I wanted to see the song or change to a new playlist I had to unplug it.) But nonetheless I was STOKED to have my iphone music playing. It also charged my phone.
A few months I upgraded to an Iphone 4S, and now when I plug my phone in I can't play ANY music!! (Bluetooth for phone works fine.)
Questions:
1. So I always assumed the cord came with the Prius although I guess the first owner could have put it in? Do that model came with one?
2. Most importantly: How can I play music from my 4S phone the simplest easiest way.....

I have a 2004 Mazda 3s with 210k miles. Both the remote key's just stopped working. The dealership tried replaced batteries and tried reprogramming the key's but said that the computer is not accepting the keys (these are original keys). They suggested replacing the computer but in my opinion the car is not worth that much ...
I tested the remotes at autozone and they seem to transmit rf signals. The door locks or control modules work fine - the problem appears to be the remotes or the communication between ecu & remotes.
