I installed my UTEC and TXS Tuner both have the newest verison of software. The car runs great, Tuner displays the AFR's and seems to be working fine. I have the serial cable from the UTEC to the tuner then another cable from the front of the Tuner to my Laptop. When I turn the car on I get the Tuner booting up screen it detects the UTEC and I can switch between the Tuner and UTEC screens. My problem is I cant view any data, no dashboard, not logs, cant edit maps, anything on the UTEC. On the Tuner I can look at a few menus but thats it. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong to make it so I cant veiw anything on the UTEC?

This was with the car off or on didnt make a difference. Please help....

Edit: when I disconnect the TUNER and hook only up to the UTEC I can see the dashboard, edit things, log stuff.... Also my Turbo XS Tuner Lite has verison 1.6 on it and I see on Turbo XS website they only have up to Verison 1.5 anyone else have problems with 1.6? Maybe I should flash to the 1.5 verison.

Well it took me 3 tries to reflash the TXS Tuner to version 1.5 I had to set the baud rate down to 9600 to get it to work. Now I can log, edit, dashboard, both in the Tuner and UTEC

Sometimes a bad serial cable can cause havoc. Although it looks like you solved your problem.

It may be the startup order for the 2.
I had the same problem. I could ONLY see the Tuner.

The UTEC has to be booted before the Tuner powers up, so power the tuner off a 12V source that switches off until just after the car is started. The CIG lighter line works well for this.
