hi i have just bought tech 2 equipment and software for my 1997 corsa sport and i cant seem to get it to work. when i connect to the car the software says connecting, but then a few seconds later it will say connection failed ecu not responding. ive tryed this on 3 different cars and they all the same so i think i must have the settings wrong.
Has anyone else bought tech 2 and does anyone know what the settings should be for it??? please help.
