Hello.

Recently I observed, that my Ross-Tech uCan interface can't work, reporting this error message:

Nowy+obraz+%252816%2529.jpg


I tried it on two different laptop's with Windows 7 32bit (where it works fine long time before). When connected to the USB port, the LED on the interface blinks once, and then Windows saying that USB device is not recognized. When I tilt a bit the USB socket, LED blinks again and situation is repeated. Going to options - test - it gives message as above.

Connecting the interface to OBD port on car - LED is stay green, however still not working.

Above is not totally permanent - there are somentimes, when it works properly.
What I'm thinking - it can be simply USB cable issue. I didn't resolder it yet - but before I would like to know Your opinion.

Best regards
Marcin

I would check all for connections in the USB cable from the USB plug back to the circuit board in the interface with a multimeter.

Uwe, You have right - replacing the cable solved the issue.
Thank You.
