Hi guys,
finally decided to take the BECM out today in an effort to cure some of the spurious messages i get, safe and secure in the knowledge i had saved the link some kind soul posted,with a very well written explanation of the BECM boards etc,got it out no visible dry joints etc, thought i would just put computer on and check how to strip it only to find i hadnt got the link!!

so question is does anyone else have it saved? I think it was posted by desertdude,but i have been back 40 pages and tried searching for it but to no avail,it was a damn good link the page was very well explained along with good drawings or photos of the dreaded Becm
hoping someone else kept it properly!!
not really surprised i cant find it as ive only just found a pm from Datatek that he sent before christmas! doh!!:confused:
 
I love that thread on RR.net. It's somewhat accurate. I have quite a few on there with regards to some of their threads. If fact, i supplied all the equipement to the site admin to start a becm workshop in the States, but it didn't work out.

Just be careful stripping down your becm, & prepare yourself that it might not work again afterwards. However, I have a huge huge stock of repacement parts if needed.

Pete your a star!! it was a link on the 2nd one you posted! the pics were good on desertdudes post which is maybe why i remembered it, as to location, Ahem Im in spain! not to many people here with nanocom or fault mate,so have to be very careful what i take apart and cross fingers, offer sacrifices to the gods,and pray everytime i do it!!
cheers bud!

Thanks Rick,Im hoping never to have to use your services as postage here is ,A expensive
B non existant for parcels
C big parcels get left at the local townhall then no one notifies you of its arrival and they kind of vanish into thin air!!
See my post to pete,I walk on eggshells around the damn car just in case!!

That could be the central switch pack - they have been known to give up the ghost and not be a fault of the BeCM....

Download RAVE from the link in the "How To" section, that will give you all the connector ID's and everything else you might want:)

You are better off with XP than 7, depending on the download it may be an ISO file that needs converting to run, try alcohol120%, Google it.
If all else fails, I can send it to you on a CD.:)
