Hi
I have a Nissan Primera with diesel engine(CD20T) with zexel ECU(23710-2J610) and 14 pin gray connector.
When i try to connect its says "Consult not connected". The com port is correct.
I have Nissan consult interface
and a serial to USB adaptor, I can read petrol engines, no problems, but i cant connect to my car with any software.

We dont support that particular engine (Primera CD20T) and have only done Patrols with Zexel Disel ECUs
You will need to enable debug logging and then retry the connection. But wont be able to do that in trial mode since you only get one shot...

It is a littlebit pointless to buy the software only for logging
ill try on

how many COM ports do you have...
12:34:59.421 COM3 found
12:34:59.734 COM4 found
12:34:59.734 COM5 found
12:34:59.734 COM6 found
12:35:02.468 COM7 found
It only attempted connection to COM4 so you must have it in manual COM port selection? Is that the one for your consult port?
It didnt get a response to that port after sending FF FF EF initialisation tring with 200ms delay between each character
Unless that string needs to be slower for your ECU?

Com 4 is consult, and it manually set in settings. others are bluetooth etc
nissan datascan found E7 and DC are active, but no connection
I know that with handheld consult(in Nissan service) can communicate with my car.

update your address file and try firstly adding
INIT_BYTE=&H00E7
then reload address file and try connecting. See if that works
If not then change to
INIT_BYTE=&H00DC
and see if that works
Might be just the different init string
So datascan does init string detection now?

Yes
Datascan ecu finder bombs the ecu with ff ff xx and found DC and E7
With DC nistune found standart consult, but nothing else

DC was the correct init byte to use
Perhaps try it again from a cold start (ECU off)
But what I see so far...
- All read register attempts responded with no valid registers found
- ECU Identification command did not stream out an ID
Not too sure what this ECU is doing but doesn't look like consult the way we know it

when you tried the second attempt, the ECU had already received something from the first attempt and responded differently to that init string
so just power off the ECU, wait 10 seconds and then power back up and retry the second init string again

I tryed to turn ignition key to LOCK, wait for 10 sec and then tryed again. Same result. A blank consult registers screen poped up and thats all.

whats happening is that the READ REGISTER command is not getting any valid displayable registers back from the ECU
it may be using a different CONSULT-II command we dont know about to retrieve the registers
not much i can do unless you get the original CONSULT-II terminal, and put a serial port sniffer between the ECU and terminal and then log all the traffic both ways unfortunately
