Could be this as I connected OK just now, read the BCU checked the keys, all OK, Entered the new PCB number and saved it off.
Gave a long number ending with my VIN..
Tried to restore and it came up with a VIN mismatch error , so went no further.


Tried couple times since and although it says connected OK, it won't read anything or occasionally comes up with garbled text.
