    P38A 4.6 GEMS '95 ABS DIAGNOSTICS

    I tried buying one on Thursday through the nanaocom website. £360 with the motronic licence, plus £30 odd quid postage. Filled out delivery details and completed the order without seeing any payment page, then got an email saying someone will be in touch to process payment. Haven't heard from...

    Wanted Nanocom V8 P38

    Before I shell out and buy new, has anyone got a nanocom for sale coded to either of the P38 V8's? I'm located in Somerset. Many thanks

    P38A 4.6 GEMS '95 ABS DIAGNOSTICS

    https://www.nanocom-diagnostics.com/shop/product/ncom07 It says C & D type. I'm thinking about investing in one for my Thor 4.0. If I can use it to sort the ABS issue on my Gems 4.6 makes it even more worthwhile I guess! I'm hoping the second hand ABS ecu has stored faults in it already...

    That's understandable will see how we get on this time. I stupidly had pinned my hope on the new ecu sorting it so I could get the thing MOT'd, didn't help that I then went onto try replace the wing mirror glass, not a fun job that I would recommend

    Nice one hopefully will try again with Wazzajnr this weekend. He had used it on a GEMS Wabco 3 ok earlier on that day.

    P38A 4.6 GEMS '95 ABS DIAGNOSTICS

    So quick update, tried plugging the thing into nanocom but it couldn't retrieve any values from the ECU. I didn't say it couldn't connect just couldn't get any info from it. The same nanocom was used successfully on a similar aged Gems the same day. Changed the brake switch which was generously...

    Rick the Pick is the man for the job! I know how you're feeling my 2 are p*ssing me right off! ABS & more EAS problems not to mention all the other bings and bongs that show up on a daily basis!

    P38A 4.6 GEMS '95 ABS DIAGNOSTICS

    Now you've got me thinking because I get a warning for both rear brake lights not working even though they are. So maybe it is the brake light switch? I guess I would have to replace it then clear the codes and see if it cures the issue

    Ah dammit missed you there then, maybe i should set up a stand on the A303 for any passing fellow P38 enthusiasts?! How much was the Nanocom, if you don't mind me asking? They must be good as i havent seen any second hand ones for sale!

    P38A 4.6 GEMS '95 ABS DIAGNOSTICS

    How do all, In the quest to solve the ABS & Traction warning on my Gems 4.6, MOT fast approaching and other than the lights brakes work perfectly, i have been looking into diagnostic tools to find out whats wrong. With the exception of Nanocom, which my pockets are too deep to go for at the...

    P38A EAS COMMS Problems - '95 4.6

    Right guys i have sorted this. I cut the OBD2 end of one of the cables and spliced into the corresponding wires and fed the serial cable into the glovebox. Still nothing. Obviously i have been away from P38's for to long, as it was whilst emailing Datatek that he triggered my memory. I had...

    P38A EAS COMMS Problems - '95 4.6

    Thanks chaps, unfortunately i let my Datatek lead go with my last P38. I only really tried the USB adapter in desperation as i know they cause problems. I installed the drivers first from the disk that came with the adapters. I have tried all the comm ports in the EAS Suite. On my old P38 it...

    P38A EAS COMMS Problems - '95 4.6

    How do all, I am struggling to communicate with the EAS on my 4.6 '95 I've recently acquired. I cannot get the EAS suite to achieve a good idle and i am out of ideas now, so any help gratefully appreciated! The car has a soft fault so fortunately is still driveable, but i can see it leaking...

    P38A 4.0 THOR LPG - BRC SEQUENTIAL 56 COMMS

    I will give it a try, thanks. I thought there was just the 2 solenoids, one on the tank and one on the vapouriser? I can hear the tank solenoid click when I try and switch over to gas. I am at a loss with the software have tried the oldest version I can find along with several other BRC versions...

    P38A 4.0 THOR LPG - BRC SEQUENTIAL 56 COMMS

    After a brief 12 month break from P38 life i have acquired a '01 4.0 Thor, on springs :(, and a '95 4.6 GEMS on EAS, in the hope that any one will be roadworthy at any one time! They both have issues, but after all the help and wisdom gained from here i saved my last one from the scrapheap...

    P38 Engine Imobiliser EKA Code

    can't help with the nanocom but have been thru this myself. It's important that the message key code lockout is cleared before trying to enter the EKA code. This will be displayed for approximately 30 minutes after the BECM has sensed an issue. Also make sure you have done the four turns to the...
