Aloha to the forum,
New guy here, and of course I am in need of help.
I have owned this Solus scanner for about ten years now. (7.2)
For some unknown reason, it has stopped communicating with all vehicles.
The scanner seams as if it is working fine, IE. it boots, takes commands, says what key is required for the vehicle being accessed, and it can access trouble shooting/fast track, etc. It just can't connect to any vehicle.
Tried using all cables and keys on another SO scanner, all worked fine.
I understand that this is an old scanner, but I sure do like it. I own a Solus-pro, and a Modis, and neither preform at the speed that the Solus does.
I did a search on the subject and found little to no useful information. I have seen a few other reports about this condition, so I am not alone.
Anyone have any ideas on what might be the issue, and if it can be corrected?
Could this be an internal software time bomb that renders the scanner useless after a certain amount of time?
I did find where someone had tried rebooting the CF? card. Tried that, obviously it did not work.
Mahalo for any and all information.
aloha.
