Turbo Link ? for those having problems

[Vaders Sy]

For those having problems receiving info from the ECM and using a USB connector...

Have you guys switched to the faster baud rate USB connector? Ken and I worked for a while trying to figure out why the Sy's ECM didn't send info to the laptop, but once I hooked the Turbolink up to my bro's GN it worked! I told Ken, and from his experiences with these situations, the baud rate is not as fast enough for the ECM from the Sy/Ty's. He told me to try a different USB connector that should work on our ECM's and older ones.

Anyone else do this? Mine will be here Tuesday. Hopefully, it will solve my problem.

The new USB connector solved my problem.

i couldn't get mine to link up with my ty, ever...it links up to my sy though...i recently bought a buick turbo and it will link up only the first time you try...if you diconnect for some reason, you have to restart the laptop and do a few other things for it to link up again and the laptop loses track of the cable...i'm using the adapter that t-link recommended....what i'm not liking about the turbolink is that you don't get an injector duty cycle reading (at least not on the buick) and playback is kinda tricky...

I understand what you are saying. On my Sy, it would detect cables but not communicate. Bought a faster baud rate USB adaptor and it fixed the problem. Hooray for me!
