In need of help with my Nanocom on RR P38

Disco1979 · Apr 16, 2014

Hi Guys

I haven't visited the site for quite a while now but just haven't stopped doing jobs on my RR but now need a bit of help as my nanocom 2 has stopped working on the EAS (won't connect with ECU), I have been talking to blackbox and they have asked me if I could try it on another RR p38a 2001.

So is there any one out there that would let me plug my nano in to there car so I can say it,s my car or the nano that has a fault.
Hopefully not a million miles from Amersham HP6 6QL

Cheers guys:tea:

I use TestBook T4 and when it wont communicate with the EAS its normally the white connector behind the left hand side kick panel. If the connector is bad then it needs to be removed and each wire re-soldered.

FYI. I've had the same problem with my Faultmate, talks to everything else but the EAS. I ended up getting Storey Wilsons software and that worked fine. I didn't get round to contacting Blackbox at the time and then it got forgotten. Must pull it out and have a look at it again (it was a couple of years ago when I had a bag burst - it's been fine since although I've only done around 2000 miles in that time).

I'll make a point of checking that connector as well thanks Stopover.

Hi Derek

I have connected many time with the nanothe the EAS but all of a sudden nothing

The nanocom won't connect to the EAS or let me see the live data but my laptop will reset the EAS with storey wilsons software and yesterday I bought a bluetooth ELM 327 mini dongle off ebay for £5.49, bought the torque pro app at £2.95 just to see if I had a connection problem with the live data but it connected first time with my HTC sensation. For £8.44 you can see lots of information I was quite surprised, for anyone that's interested check this out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQSsUPrGLHs and buy the way I have a RR 2001 vogue 4.6L with the motronic engine.

I will check out those connection sockets in the footwell this weekend just to make sure they are ok, thanks for the tip stopover.

P.S dose anyone know the standard high settings for the EAS all profiles or could you tel me what yours are set at.

The settings vary from car to car as the height sensors are none too accurate, you set it up with a tape measure or blocks, do a search, Saint.V8 has done a good graphic for the heights.

Well a great guy (Grrrrrrr) not half an hours drive way said I could try my nano on his car and we came to the conclusion that my nano is at fault and I will be sending it back to blackbox solutions for them to check it out.

As I said J if you need a hand with anything just PM me and I will be to happy to come over and help.

once again thanks very much

No problem. More than welcome. Be interested in what is wrong with the unit as it certainly worked with some of the other modules. Very strange.

Thanks,

J
