I used this opcom on my corsa 2006, now I have an astra, but when I plug it in and select to automatically find my car it says no communication with ECM

anyone know why please?

does it communicate if you manually select model, year & engine type? must admitt i've always gone for manual selection & had no problems with communication

Are you selecting "KWP-2000" or "CAN" ??
you shud be selecting "CAN" mate

Some of the copy interfaces have issues with CAN. You should be able to hear relays clicking inside, as previous poster says, your new vehicle is CAN, your old one wasn't. Maybe that is the clue.

thanks everyone for your help, what I found out was that this software some how doesnt work on my new car, so I searched the forum and found this person who uploaded various versions of the software, tried a few untill one of them worked without needing the verification code, so its working spot on, for those of you who own a astra H or MK5 and fited HID kit you will find they display a warning signal or the lights strobe when engine is on, with OP-COM you can use it to program the lights to accept the HID kit therefore you dont need to buy CANBUS kit which is over 100 pounds,

anyway, now for part two of help I need, Im trying to get into the ECU for millage correction etc etc but it asks me for a 4 digit password, can anyone help me find this password? or has a software that fully works which I can use with my interface? thanks :)

the password is on the car pass (same as your radio code) but as z786 said opcom won't help. I don't do that sort of thing anyway so cannot be of any further assistance

In regards to this tool you recommended... Opel EDC16...

Hi RCS

you are right, where it says read/write km, you can also do he dash, but those cars are old and even op-com can do the mileage in the dash!

as for the rest of the list
when you see the codes such as Z10XEP, they are the engine codes of the ECU that you are looking 2 correct

hope that helps

Thanks z786,

So as you said when it says

ASTRA HZ14XEP 2004 - 2009

does that mean it can change only ECU in these Astras or dash too...

Thanks...

this devive is only used to alter the km in the ecu and not the dash, you will need a eeprom programmer to alter the reading on the dash, you may also have to change the m35080 eeprom if it vp ot v6 edition
