cheers

First question I suppose is this a GENUINE interface you are using?

Hi
Yes it is genuine.

In that case I would try the Ross Tech support forum

@Uwe@Ross-Tech and his team are excellent

Well they are not the friendliest to ask a question, you have to be very precise in what you ask.
Anyway, I went to 01 Engine in the program and Basic settings is not greyed out, but it is using 09 central electrics !, I have only had it just over a week, so still getting used to it.
Cheers

I know they like people to post a full autoscan, this is not only to show how a car is configured but they can tell if the interface is genuine, no idea how lol

I have always found them helpful

How long would a full scan take ?,it takes a age to load up a module 😊

[stuart]

Not used mine for a while but usually about 10 mins I would say maybe less, just depends on how many modules it has to scan..

Hi
Yes it is genuine.

Based on the serial number you provided when you joined our forum, I rather doubt it.

That said, what makes you think that a PQ35 BCM has any Basic Settings?
