Morning, blackbox solutions do a tool for the EAS system that plugs into the socket on the passenger side, don't know if this is what you need https://blackbox-solutions.com/shop/ eas kicker

Take the dash panel off and check the obd connection wiring....they suffer corrosion quite badly

Are any other ECU's connecting? What diagnostics are you using?

So, tell us if you are using the EAS software from RSW, if so, I assume you are also using a USB to serial adaptor or a USB lead fom Ebay? If you are and are using Vista it may well be a driver problem for the USB.

Oops, can never remember who has one of mine. Most likely it's a problem with the USB drivers.
Make sure you have the correct driver for the USB to serial adaptor loaded before you plug the adaptor into the PC.
