PP2000 not recognising my engine ecu - help?
Hi
I have a 1999 V reg 2.0L 16v 406 GLX Estate (D9 variant). I retrofitted the trip switch to it and I get the options, such as instant MPG, distance to empty etc but no numbers. I got PP2000 to see if I could activate the trip function but when I try and connect, using the test by ecu option, it comes up with a choice (I guess of ECU types) with codes that have letters and numbers such as RFV....... My car has engine code RFR and this isn't listed, when I try and get it to read, I tried each option and I get one of the following messages "The ECU didn't reply" or "PP2000 Unknown Reference" When I open PP2000 and go to the 406, it asks for a Build Code (DAM Number) which it shows as located on the nearside strut top under the bonnet. Since I don't have one I do the other option and input the code 00006911. I am connecting through the 16 pin socket near the steering wheel. Does anyone know how I can get this to recognise my ECU? |

Yeah, i did that first and got the same result. I wonder if I could find a DAM number would it make a difference, it isn't on the strut top though.....

8298 was the correct DAM number......
Well...it is time to fess up It turns out that there is nothing wrong with my PP2000, the error turned out to be between the chair and the keyboard. When selecting the 406 in the system I chose simply 406 and I knew it wasn't a 406 Coupe and had never heard of a 406R or a 406R coupe...... As it happens, I have a 406R......... Thanks for all the help for this post - I promise I will try harder in future..... Feel free to throw stones at me for being such a thicko but remember... Experience is something we dont get until just after we needed it.......... Last edited by L12PUG; 09-03-2011 at 03:03 PM. |

Agreed!
 Seriously though, thanks for the help. If you ever visit South Cumbria or the lakes, let me know - I owe you a beer! Last edited by L12PUG; 09-03-2011 at 04:01 PM. |
