NONE of above devices should have a yellow mark (
) next to them.
If none of the above has a yellow mark, then congratulations! You're ready to begin scanning your car(s). Click here on how to connect to your car in the next 5 minutes

- Restart PC
- Download and unextract DRIVER PACK 6
- Double-click on "InstallUSB" to install
- Connect cable to laptop. Yellow mark should now be gone. Success!

c) Choose: Browser my computer for driver software
d) Browse to and select folder where you unextracted Driver Pack 6. Make sure "Include subfolders" is ticked ON.

h) If g above is true, then do steps a-f for "Unknown Device". It may also show as "COMx".
Even DRIVER PACK 6 didn't help? Then likely it's a "Code 10 error" next to "Prolific USB-to-Serial" device. Click here to fix that.

) is STILL not gone? Go to Troubleshooting below.

Troubleshooting: Solutions for ELM Connection Issues |
Common Solutions:
If you're unable to connect successfully to your car, then that's because of 2 reasons:
- Your vehicle is notOBD2 compatible.
- Random issues that can be fixed with below solutions
Here are solutions in recommended order:
- First check that ELM is physically working (not defunct). When you plug in the cable into a USB port, all the lights on ELM interface/device should flash. And then it'll return to 1 red light (power).
Condition of a defunct ELM interface: All lights will not initially flash, and only red light will be on. - Restart computer (while keeping cable connected to laptop). Try again.
- Plug USB into different physical port of your computer. Try again.
- If all above solutions fail, then we will help you (only if you are Total Car Diagnostics customer). Here's all you need to do
Connect ELM USB cable into laptop. (Don't need to plug the other end to car)
Step 1: Go to Control Panel.
Windows Vista/7/8/ Control Panel » System » Device Manager
Windows XP: Control Panel » System » "Hardware" tab » Device ManagerStep 2: Expand "Ports (COM & LPT)" and "Other Devices".
Step 3: Take picture of the screen (Press "Print Screen" key on the keyboard then paste into any graphics program. Or take shot with camera/phone.)
Step 4:Contact us and attach the picture.
