If you have this issues I described below it’s your cable most likely



I have some trouble with BMW Flash and MSS Flasher, when I try to read the ECU in my 2002 m3 I get an error :

In MSS flasher it says this:
Detecting FTDI ports
Found 1 device
Port opened
Timeout waiting for echo from FTDI
Trouble Iding the ECU

I tried using the Ross tech vids and bmw scanner 1.4 FTDI cables

In BMW Flash I got the message attempting to communicate to ECU and then it went back to the main screen.
