     Evaluating an MD802 in Canada.  Communicated successfully with a 1998 Toyota Corolla ... no VIN input required.  Unable to communicate with a 2005 Honda CRV ... manual input of required VIN loops back for repeated input ... eventually hangs?  Tried as Canadian and USA ... same problem?  Anyone else experience this?

    Correction to original post: "VIN looping" was first experienced on a 2002 Honda CRV (not 2005).

    Further results:
    - auto-detected (area = USA) on a 2005 Toyota Echo

    Further testing: "VIN looping" also experienced on a 2002 Honda Odyssey.

    MD802 about:
    - firmware version: V1.01
    - system software version: V4.40
    - hardware version: V1.00
    - manufacture date: 07/23/2014

     Had this same issue with a 99 Mercury Sable. I sent in a ticket order to fix it and it works fine now. I did notice your system software version is V4.40. I am using V4.50. Get the latest update and see if that fixes it for you folks. The only other problem I'm having is it won't read my airbag codes. Thankfully, I have a service manual and figured out what the air bag issue is.

     Further updating: Registered the MD802 online ... applied all available updates (44) ... Setup/About now shows software version V4.50 (vice V4.40)

    Further testing:
    ... (2002 Honda CRV, keyon-engoff): MD802 now accepts VIN for this vehicle and appears to have full data access permitted by OEM for after-market tools.
    ... (2002 Honda Odyssey, keyon-engoff): MD802 now accepts VIN for this vehicle ... appears to have considerable data access as permitted by OEM for after-market tools ... however the O2 Monitor Test and On-Board Monitor Tests report as not supported.  Will be investigated further as they are available in the same vintage CRV above (deficiency may be with Autel software).
