    I'm not sure why the VX V6 is not scanning properly with EFILive V4, sorry I'm all out of ideas.
    Unfortunately there is no EFILive tuning option for the VX V6 controller. EFILive V4 is a scan tool only, the vehicles that are supported with V4 can only be scanned and data logged, not tuned.

    Regards

    Hi Mark,

    The good news is, the new cable looks lik eit is working better than the first one, the bad news is that something is still not working properly.

    Can you do two thigs for me, please?

    1. Send me the *.xml file that you are using. I.e. the file will most likely be: \Program Files (x86)\EFILive\V4\Vehicle data streams\gmh-vx6.xml. Please zip the file because sometimes email systems will mess with the content of an xml file attachment.
    2. Connect everything up and select the "Display ALDL Chatter(Ctrl+L)" option. Allow it to run for at least 30 seconds, then copy all the text text that was displayed and paste it into this thread.

    Thanks
    Paul
