If you are having issues with connecting WINALDL using USB cables then go to the USB page on the sub menu of WinALDL and check out your laptops settings. Also, with laptops using a serial cable that is pretty much always COM1 with USB you need to use the USB Finder page to determine what COM port number is assigned to your USB Cable before proceeding. For installing on Windows Vista, Window 7 or Windows 8 you need to follow special installation instructions and override the location where the program is installed.

(see USB guide) If you are using the AutoProm, ensure that it is set to pass-through *NOT* AutoProm mode. (see AutoProm troubleshooting guide) On most 160 baud applications, you will need to set the switch to 10k mode on your AutoProm or ALDU1; Set the COM port selection in WinALDL to match what it set up to on the USB driver under the control panel. Has anyone got a copy of the driver (it's the cable as shown here - for this cable, that they could email me?

Once installed you will need to begin configuration your WinALDL program to start logging that data. After installing, run the WINALDL Software and click the configuration button and choose the ECM type and choose METRIC. Also, set the com port that your ALDL cable is plugged into and if your using a USB cable set the baud rate to 4800. Then for sending me a log, I like a check mark in this sensor data box and then just log me lots of data and especially try to capture problem areas where you have a bog or pinging issues. Typically 6 minutes of varied driving from cruise to different rpms and throttle level you can get me enough data to see what is going on. Fatx format tool. Then after you stop your logging and BEFORE you close the program, click on the BLM tab above and save that page and the spark counts tab.

Email the _LOG.TXT, _BLM.TXT and the _KNOCK.TXT files that were created in the c: Program Files WINALDL directory.

ALDL USB Cable Driver by Madscanner Started on:  11:08 AM Replies: 7 (985 views) Last post by: Patrick on 12:37 AM Madscanner Member Posts: 593 From: Registered: Dec 2004 Feedback score: Report this Post 11:08 AM Hi After months of doing other jobs around the house and on the cars, I finally decided to to try and sort out the high idle on the Formula. I got my laptop, my USB cable and my instruction sheet, and headed out to the car. Got the laptop fired up, checked the instructions, plugged the USB cable in to the laptop and the OBD1 port. Saw that the instructions say that the operating system should pick up the connection and ask for the driver.

This is the point in time that I tried to remember where I'd put the disc with the drivers. After spending an hour looking through my work room, I have been unable to find the disc. Has anyone got a copy of the driver (it's the cable as shown here - for this cable, that they could email me?
