RENAULT CAN CLIP REPAIR SOLUTION

**starlight2k** · 17th September, 2020, 12:07 PM

Hello,

got a little Problem with my Can Clip AN2135 (on both pcb).
CAN Part is always working, but sometimes it does not regonize the ISO part. When this happens all crystals on both pcb show 50hz ... when everything is working all crystals on works normal. seems that 3v3 also missing on iso board when problem occur.

also the VIN detect never worked. it is brand new from china... really annoying.
Can someone help? already checked all caps on board.. no short to ground.

and I have got good news. The new Clip does work on all my cars. I also tested it at a meeting on two Renaults Safrane using OBD2 connection.

The only disappointed I have is that on my R25s only the injection ecu is show in the computers list.
One of the cars is in permanent limp home mode (the automatic gearbox). I really was looking forward to reading the fault code using the Clip.
I tried all R25 variants which have a AR4 automatic gearbox on the Clip.

When using the Clip on my 1993 Clio using ISO I *do* get a list of computers, even those that are clearly not in this car.

I never was able to read data on my twingo 95 when the engine was running. The device gets disconnected. Can you tell me what clip do you use that works well while engine is running with the 12 pin connector?
I already tried 2 clips the gold board clip and the green board.

I am happy to announce I found the problem after many tests.
The usb cable supplied with the can clip is too long and the voltage drop causes the can clip not to be recognized by the windows computer when the engine is on.
I tried a short cable and it works. Not perfectly though but enough to get some data when the engine is on.
I am using the gold board with the AN2131q chip.

Hi friends from Digital Kaos!!!
I had a Renault Clone Clip that was working worse and worse. It has begun to recognize only the old cars without CAN then it was dead, unable to be recognized be the computer....
I finally, have salvaged it by resoldering its relays and by cleaning a solder blob melt in between the pins of a large IC creating a short circuit....
Now, it works again!!!

Hi. I have CAN Clip Gold V207. The green CAN LED has gone out. Previously, it would often go out while communicating with the vehicle. Do you have any ideas what could be wrong?

**Utente** · 1st November, 2021, 10:33 AM

hi, what do you mean by gold? there are more than 3 versions? if it's the one with an213.... chips i have a half ideea that since some chips were discontinued decades ago they refurbish with recycled ones or they messed the original layout too much and newer products are a bomb clock in terms of reliability, so if you can send it back asap. it happened to me a bad pc platform, in fact now i have a dedicated w7 spare laptop.
otherwise you can try the things already posted, swap quartz, replace l05's, but don't get too much into it as it might be less expensive to buy another one from different supplier (pay attention as there are 2 or 3 main suppliers and many cloned ads by child of a b1tch)

Sorry unknown USB

I also have a problem with a can clip ........ I connected it to a 2017 logan and it shows me that it has a problem with the battery charging even though it didn't have these problems, and then I connected it to a Duster 2022 without connecting it to my laptop and all the witnesses on board were on
How could I fix this can clip?

some more information, in case someone cannot repair their Clip. I have china good clone. Don´t remember if it has ever worked or not, but now my ISO light is off. Started troubleshooting flash and eeprom, switched AN2135 and to no luck. Then started looking at HUB IC, marked "CY7C65113C" - and noticed that from datasheet - pinout on the board does not match. easy to spot on my board - pin 1 and 5 connected together - if it is like that on your board, then you dont have Cpress IC, but rebranded GL850G
so far this is all I know, can update if there is interest.
