Hi Guys!!!

Yesterday I recive my carprog 'chinese clone'. I try it straight away on my Zafira to get pin code, everyfing was fine and I get the pincode without any problems then I go to try to get pin from Corsa D ME 7.6.2 to perform ECU reset, when I plug in usb cable to laptop I get a message 'connect device' :crushed::crushed::crushed: - CarProg unit... Suddently unit is unrecognizable for laptop now only green diode stay's solid I try to change the mini-usb cable, laptop and still nothing. From time o time I get message 'Device unrecognized'.
Anyone have similiar situation?

Thanks for any info.:peaceful:

Do you have other programmers installed too??
try another pc,also get into device manager to see if device is recognised for there...
If not,
Just take some photos,contact seller,and ask for a full refund !!

First time I run the device on win 7 pro 32 with Delphi instaled on it only, and after first successful read on Zafira I try to read ME 7.6.2 but CarProg start to be unrecognizable. I try it on fresh win 7 pro 32 and xp 32 with the same result on 2 different PC's. Refund is in progress.
Now beacuse I forgot to mention bricked one was v10.93 and I read someware that PCB in that version is quite unstable, so I will order 8.21. Mayby you have any experience with that version ?

Thank you for reading and answer to my problem.

10.93 is only the software,firmware of the device should work good with 8.21/9.xx/10.xx
Did you try simple things like changing the usb cable?
It cant be unrecognisable like this...Did you try updating or hardware test with internet on?

Yes I already try 2 used cables and 1 brand new. After resoldering USB socket it was discovered once by PC as unknown device, after reconnecting it's the same like it was. I think the problem is in PCB around socket, anyway I don't trust to this device because I dont want lost connection durring flashing etc. When I will have some time I will solder wires straight to PCB bypassing the socket, and let you know it is help. Mayby it will be helpfull for someone with familiar problem.
