    Dash7 and the ECU or there is no data coming from the ECU. Check connection between Dash7 Main unit and VEMS ECU (RS232 connector) and check if the ECU is powered ON. Check if your ECU is not “PASSWORD PROTECTED”. If yes, disable password protection (or ask your tuner), because with password protection activated the ECU do not send out any data in Triggerframe protocol.
