Do you mean the VIN decoder? I think you may have to select your model or the specific ECU from the list since they are not completely updated with regards to VINs. (I am just guessing though since I'm still waiting for my tool to arrive.) They are REALLY GOOD at responding to questions so you can just shoot them a question on their website form.

In my experience, connecting the OBDII port 1st or the USB 1st does not matter. Did you connect the cable to USB port before opening the software? Make sure to do that. If it does not work, did you install the USB driver? Also try updating the BavTech software off their website. If all fails, contact BavTech support.

Is it not detecting your car or the BT cable? Are the drivers correctly installed?
