when the program says searching for board it never finds it. I tried with the ignition on and off.

Anyone have the same problem?

You need to disconnect from the car before plugging in the update cable.. As long as the box is unpowered, it will work.

Cable arrived today. Getting mailing address for next person, and with luck it'll be gone tomorrow.

add me to the list please.
Does the firmware update solve that a/c issue? Or is mine a soldering issue? if it is can someone direct me to the thread?
Sometimes when I turn the **** from hot to cold, it doesn't click over, I have to do it a few times, also my AMB TEMP is never right.
Or do I have a bigger problem?
PHX, AZ

Also, how do you check your firmware on your axxess box?

Not sure about the incorrect AMB tmp but the climate control maybe the soldering issue

Aswc

I sent the cable on the 20th. It should arrive within the next two days if I'm not mistaken. Sorry for the delay,as for my aswc, im pretty sure its fried, i tried it with a different head unit and it was even less responsive. It just wont output the correct signal, if any at all. And yess I checked the wiring and yess I manually reprogrammed it, but to no avail. I ordered a new aswc from an authorized distributor this time, hopefully it'll work.

Red face What was wrong

I tried the axxess cable and it didn't work so I ended up buying a new aswc.

Symptoms: When it auto programed, only two buttons would work, and they don't do what they're supposed to do.
The next button would change modes and the mode button would skip tracks. No change after manual programming.
When used with a different head unit, the head unit wasn't receiving response from the aswc=> nothing.

if you have similar symptoms look here:
