??????????????????????

I have a problem with my Merc Star3 not communicating with any Merc vehicle Gateway module, this prevents diagnosis of any module not directly connected to the CARB socket. All other functions/comms of my Star3 are working fine that do not rely on comms with the Gateway module. The Star3 has a self diagnosis programme in Star Utilities - Self Diagnosis - Caesar. With the Star3 connected and powered up, this programme will perform a internal integrity check, I've attached a copy of my Star3 report for reference of what one looks like.

Would someone with a Star3 execute the same and upload the report for comparisons.

Thank you.

check that your multiplexer authorized level is 3, it is old dear, the new one is authorized level is 4. check it. please try YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED BEFORE MATE >>>>>> you will get level 4 report

@ andywill
My friend...you're problem has nothing to do with serial number or authorization level !
I saw many , actually many more with the authorization level 4 and serial number 029866 which has this problem plus k-lines errors instead of D3 with s/n 27685...
The problem is related to poor voltage stabilizers and cheap capacitors...it's a guy here who knows this problems very well...Bigovic. Try to PM him for some sollutions.
No offence for this guys from anyscancn but definately they will tell you that their stuff is better because they are selling this !
And by the way mine is D3 with s/n 27685 and working perfect for about 4 years but it was made in Europe.

Special Test ... 3001 Error in CAN1 environment on Part D2 board

....yep. Had very similar on my old one, if you can, check OBD socket pins 6 and 14 with star connected and trying to communicate, if no can signal appears - its dud! But the self test seems to have confirmed it for you.

Hi there

More to come
Trying to test again and I get :

The thing is I am using an RS-232 Express Card, and I suspect it is not working all that good.
Message :
D2 SERCTL1 ... 2003 DSR / DTR lines at UART1 not connected is probably trying to spit that out !!

What do you make od all this ??

(As far as I am concerned , I am going down to the garage to run a few tests again!! - and it is 02:00 in the night!!!)

[gmatj]

I forgot to mention I am running DAS 2010.01 on VMware.
Also use COM port 2 on both Host and VMware with Max speed 115200.

Still I got no solution !!

[diagnoza_auto2000]

Firts open your mux an resolder with hotair can controlers both of them and Saf procesor.
Maiby some line not have a good contact.
If will not work i will give you another solution,pm pls

Hi all,
I have the following error on my star das:
1.1-1.501.9302
What do you you think about this error?
I can't see D2 Power battery and D2 Power ignition.
On PCB I have 12v but not in diagnose.
I replaced a faulty 7808 IC inside the multiplexer but nothing was changed.ADC converter was replaced also with the new one-without any result.
Something not work on the supply side:
D2 ADC ... 2500 Error ADC
D2 Display Power Supply :
D2 Power Battery ... Voltage KL30 = 00.6 V
D2 Power Ignition ... Voltage KL15 = 00.2 V
D2 Voltage K-Lines :
D2 State K-Lines (35) ... Total 0 (+), 0 (-), 35 Error(s)

Thank you.

Just reporting back --(I should have done earlier...)
Changed RS-232 card and system is Ok now.
The one I use now has Oxford Chipset and of course coresponding drivers.

hello all

i have this problem my cesar


3001 Error in CAN1 environment on Part D2 board

can fixed
1-first check obd socket volt

must 12v

and change obd cable

%100 work

good work
