Gettin Haltec ECU manager to recognize
Haltech manager can not find my ECU. The process is so simple I can't imagine what is wrong. Tried multiple USB ports and cords.
My only guess is that I'm using a work laptop that could have some kind of software interfering. On the other hand I've loaded iTunes and several printers....
I'm obviously not a talented techi.... Any suggestions?
Thanks,
George

My car boots up every start up and automatically loads ECU manager and syncs. It works every time without fail. The car must be running or the ignition must be in the "ON" position in order for the Haltech to be fully powered. My laptop works fine too. Both run win xp. Not sure what the problem could be...

If the USB device is appearing in the list, but you still have problems communicating, then you can try un-installing and re-installing the USB driver. To remove the driver, open the Control Panel and select Add or Remove Programs and remove the following item:

After installing the ECU Manager software, a copy of the USB drivers will be placed in C:\Program Files\Haltech\USB Driver Installer . The driver can be installed from here, but opening the installer program PreInstaller.exe.
