    If you get an LC-1 you can then get a ready made LC-1 serial cable from TAQuickness.

    I'm using a dual channel LM-2. A bit overkill if all you want is WB data, but it supports other vehicles as well. Prior to that, I ran a dual LC-1 setup.

    Send me a PM and let me know what you want for that FJO unit.

    it sounds like something is way wrong if you get options like you posted.
    what is the bootblock and firmware you have installed?
    F4>F1>F1
    512k RoadRunner Firmware 12.14R
    FlashScan V2 Bootblock V2.07.04 Firmware V2.07.22 EFILive V7.5.7 (Build 191) V8.2.1 (Build 181)
    LC-1 WBO2

    Got the v 2 from craig moates with the road runner. Don't have it available right now , but do remember an april 08 sofware date coming up on the console screen (f6) of the scan tool software on the pc where it gives status of the cable. Do i need to upgrade the boot block and firmware of the (v2)cable?? Or is there somewhere else in the v 2 options i can get to "settings" (f4>f1>f1 per the tutorials) in the v2 to confgure the wide band? Thanks mike

    You will need to download the V7.5 and V8 software from here (two downloads):
    http://www.efilive.com/index.php?opt...=48&Itemid=124


    Then:
    1. install V7.5 from the above downloads;
    2. install V8 from the above downloads;
    3. Start->All Programs->EFILive->V7.5->Tools->Check For New Update and follow the prompts, wait for it to finish updating;
    4.
    Start->All Programs->EFILive->V8->Tools->Check For New Update and follow the prompts, wait for it to finish updating;

    Then: read and understand the attached document
    (serveral times) before
    upgrading your V2 bootblock/firmware...

    the upgrade involves many steps, but is easy if you understand the document.

    Failure to understand the document may cause you various headaches.
