ISTA+ programming issue using Icom - Biotoxic - 08-17-2023 Hi, got a weird error using ISTA+ 4.39.30. I have a good Icom clone and an Esys cable Managed to get the Programming to work with ista+ using Esys cable, I can access coding, retrofitting, and other programming stuff, but for some reason, programming doesn't work with Icom. I can still diagnose and do other stuff using Icom. It says: "A fault occurred during calculation of the measures plan. the required programming is therefore not available." Also related or not, I can't use ICOM with Esys but enet cable works well... maybe somebody has the " el manuel" for an Icom connection to the esys? RE: ISTA+ programming issue using Icom - aade - 08-17-2023 If your ICOM is good, it should read out the voltage off of your battery. If it goes below a certain number, I think it's 12.4V or something like that, at least ISTA/P disallows programming. Perhaps that's similar in ISTA/D? Do you mean "Esys cable" to be an RJ-45 to OBD-II cable?

Perhaps that's similar in ISTA/D?Yes, it does show voltages and I have done multiple programming sessions before I did a clean Windows reinstall and updated to the 4.39.30 Yes that's the one, the yellow ethernet cable to obd.

It's a safety feature to prevent bricking. If you were to have a steady power supply (applied in the engine bay) does that change anything for you? This would make sense to me.(08-17-2023, 03:25 PM)aade Wrote: If your ICOM is good, it should read out the voltage off of your battery.

Downgrade to 4.31.40 or 4.32.15 or go with 4.41.40 or higher. I could not program E65 M57 injectors with 4.39.20, not connecting to E60 at all (not seeing car at all). Failed to program / software update 1 x G31 and 1x G30. Tried with 4.31.40 and all good! I guess this ISTA+ 4.39.20 is BAD and should be removed from BU. |
