I received my AL539B on Friday the 28th. Charged it up some via the USB cable and then hooked it up to my 2002 Ford Explorer on Saturday. Worked fine. Went back inside to register the product on Autel's website and noticed there was an update to the software available. I downloaded and updated to the latest software and DTC codes via the Maxi-Link II software. Now the AL539B will not function properly. After connecting to the OBD 2 port and clicking ok for diagnostics, I get the progress bar, then it simply lists multiple lines of double digit numbers, such as:
f 00 00 00 01 03.
When this shows I cannot escape out or do any other function. I have to power it down, then restart it. When I click on the Setup link, it no longer shows the setup menu and only shows the list of double digit numbers again. I forced a restart into update mode (per the instruction book), re-downloaded the files and reinstalled them (in the event something got corrupted), but no change. Cannot figure out how to revert to the old firmware or reset to factory / default settings. Obviously at this point I am sorry I did the software update. Any help would be appreciated.
Last, I was not sure where to put this as I did not see any sub-forum section for my unit. If there is such a thing as a moderator on this forum, feel free to move my thread to another section that may be more appropriate.
