Hi,
i am quite new to this forum, and have already found a lot of interesting info.
However i do have a few questions about the gt1.
First of, i am a former bmw mech/tech so i am familiar with the use of the original gt1.
What i am missing from the china clone is
1: The possibility to use measure system. Not only from main menu, but when doing test schedules i often get error 100.173 (i think) because of problems with measure system. REally annoying, because often you don't want to physically use the measuring tools connecte to the gt1, you just need access to the test schedule to do the changes you want.
2: The possibility to use a printer. Cant even begin to describe how annoying this is.
3: The yellowhead has som clear electrical issues. When i connnect the head to the car, ignition will come partially on, BRAKE lights will come on, heater etc. on older 20pin cars oil lamp will start to light, but very weak....
if annyone can help with anything i'll be very glad :)
as for the gt1, i won't recomend a china clone to annyone, maybe for simple hobby use, but not for proffesional use when i clearly has big flaws (my first head wouldn't work with 16pin cars, +++++)
