Cheers Again Retro :headvswal What happens when it is connecting, does it go straight in or is here a counter, also does the car need to be running as previously stated. Cheers John Crisp

Graham am using the Blatz driver and I tried the silicon labs driver as well. Retro, cheers will load it onto laptop tonight and try tomorrow. Cheers John Crisp

It cant find any drivers, thats the frustrating thing. When I ask it to search it flashed up that windows cant find any drivers.

Retro, why is windows on some pc's finding the files and on others isnt? I know pc's are kinda succeptible to being weird at times but wtf. Surely if I need the driver, windows should find it end of story. Cheers John Crisp

Nate sorry I just seen your post. Datascan is a diagnostic tool used with a laptop, checks fault codes and you can watch sensors on the engine. HTH Cheers John Crisp

So where do we get the 4.28 driver.....anyone got it as a file?? Cheers John Crisp

Cheers...

94 onwards PS Pump from Courtesy......... http://www.courtesyparts.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=CP&Product_Code=49110-SPUMP $417....still not worth even with the strong pound etc. Cheers John Crisp

I can guess he aint happy....i'd be the same myself. Cheers John Crisp

I am not judging, saying that I work on the buses and most of the software is worked through the serial port so I should have known better.......I am in no way bad mouthing the product as when I get it working I know it will be of use to me........typical feckin computers.... Cheers John Crisp

I thought USB would be the dogs *****cks....obviously not. Cheers John Crisp

Craig, I have just looked at Courtesy Nissan USA, was gonna ask if you'd looked at the workshop manual but I am guessing from Nissan anyway they aint available seperate from the link below. http://www.courtesyparts.com/z32/oe_timing-components.html Not much help, what about bearing suppliers, there are a few in Glasgow if thats any help. Cheers John Crisp

My car is a 1993 UK Zed. Should it make a difference?? Cheers John Crisp

just a thought, what if maybee a previous owner has used feeds/earths from the com socket as thats my next port of call, to make sure the wiring is as it should be. Cheers John Crisp

I have also installed the blatz driver but it wont connect. I have the ports set same as yours to com port 4, again still no connection. Retro sent me the drivers but they didnt work either and i thought windows would find them but they didnt. I did a search for the specific driver, and found it, but the site wanted 30 dollars so i left it. Cheers John Crisp

I still havent got mine working. I insalled AOL on my laptop and tried to install the drivers for the cable, but windows cant find the drivers. So still no Datascan for me. Cheers John Crisp

I always check any car or van I take to have serviced by a main Dealer, as also worked for a main dealer and know the things that go on. My works van was serviced last year at Mr Clarks and when I went to collect it the rear quarter was bashed in quite significantly. I went to the reception again and said my van was bashed and in the end it was repaired FOC by the dealership. Cheers John Crisp

Retro that would be brilliant mate, its worth a try, the only thing is that I am off on holiday in the morning till saturday and i wont get the laptop back from work till i pick up my van again next weekend but if i have files and file locations that would be a start. I'll pm you my e-mail address mate. Cheers John Crisp

Cheers Clarkey, my next question is does anyone have the software or a link to download it, I have tried from Retro's posts and have installed another driver but it still wont fookin work. Cheers John Crisp

I dont have any fancy Engine ECU's fitted, mine is standard. Absolutely nothing happens when I try to connect, Iam gonna hook up me mobile to the laptop and see if windows will download an appropriate driver......more than likely next week now as I am going away tomorrow until next saturday......but this wont beat me for sure. Cheers for the replies guys. John Crisp

Okies, port 4 doesnt throw up a port error like the others do but it still wont connect. When I click on conect nothing happens , I dont even get an egg timer to say its happening or trying to connect. The other thing is that I have datascan installed on my main pc, it wont find the cable, all that happens is my pc freezes. Sat night ffs and I am messing about with this....all because my car is up and running again....its like having a new toy. Cheers guys

I only got to port 3....i will go into the garage and try port 4.....be back ina min. Cheers

Retro will try that now. Cheers

Cheers Legrath, can I try and connect without being connected to the car so at least I can see if its trying to connect, and should the software recognise the cable connected again without being connected to the car.

Legrath, I have installed that driver already. With regards to ports, whats involved in asigning it? When I go to START, CONTROL PANEL, SYSTEM, HARDWARE, DEVICE MANAGER, PORTS, should I see the driver as I dont? Its asigned to PORT 1 just now, is this wrong. Cheers. Retro I love messing about with pc's and in the end we get there by hook or by crook.Cheers for the help mate. Cheers John Crisp
