Greetings all. I'm just about finished cleaning up from a major belt tenionser failure/head destruction fiasco and all I have to do is time the pump. Problem is, my shiny new VAG-COM (brand name goods) won't connect. About all it will do is lock up on my computer. It will occasionally last long enough to clear the test on the options page. I don't know what the LED on the OBD II end is telling me, but what it does is glow green until I try to access the car computer and then it will either flash or flicker red then go solid red, at which point it will lock up on my PC. Sometimes, for variety, it will lock up on green. I think since it's clearing the test occasionally, the settings on the computer are right, and I've gone through the flaky connection stuff in the FAQ as I understand them. I had someone else out with another VAG-COM cable some time back and it worked fine.
Can anyone point me to something I can check? I really need to get this car on the road this weekend.
