Help! Anyone have a Cobb AP?
*EDIT: All is well...Cobb AP installed successfully after checking the 'Check for beta firmware box' in the AP manager.

damn sorry to hear. What kind of cable is it? detachable? I might have a cable laying around if they are interchangeable. (serial to obd)
Does it say why it wont communicate with the car, you obviously dont have another tune intercepting the diag port.. |

I tried it like 5 times different ways each time, and it can't connect at all...really frustrating. I have no other tune, my car is absolutely bone stock. I called Cobb and they said they can send me a new cable but of course that is more waiting... It's a detachable cable. The end that connects to the Cobb is a 10 prong square head. And to add to the frustration PYSpeed STILL hasn't sent me a tracking number (which means it probably hasn't shipped) for my exhaust and it's over a week now. Sent them numerous PM's and emails, nothing.

And I had the ignition on and everything...this doesn't seem like a common problem so I might be at fault but I tried it many different ways and followed directions exactly...

Hmmm...I'm not sure, but I doubt it. I guess I could always ask.

A 9 pin serial could possibly work! Are the pins in a square arrangement? I made a thread in the tuning section about this...

This is what the connection looks like if this helps at all...right next to it is a USB port

Hmm..if the prongs are on the cable, it won't work because the prongs are on the Cobb unit itself...thanks though man.

Precisely! I haven't been this excited in a while. Hopefully I don't get a ROM error now!

I've got a COBB AP and I will be at Camber Toe Wednesday around 4:30 for an exhaust swap if that helps and you don't get it resolved before that.
