2. i tested the button in INPA to register the battery change before doing it in tool32, and it seems to have worked. Did it via tool32 to make sure it went through, and now INPA shows multiple battery changes at the same mileage. I'm assuming this is ok other than whoever goes to register the battery next seeing more battery changes than there really have been?
3. Is it safe to continue using the cable/my INPA setup for future coding and error code scanning? It's a cheaper one purchased from somewhere different than one stop electronics (i.e. NOT the one recommended by the forum)
Thanks  |
It's safe to continue coding with your set up. The reason your car shut off was because you were modifying the values in the DME. You can't flash/program the DME while the car is running.
