Default Foxwell Question

Trying to code something with Foxwell and I’m getting the following message: “Please input the date today, according to 201 30301”. I have no idea what this means and have tried to input todays date in any number of formats only to be told the format is not correct. I found an old thread where someone else was having this issue. Any Foxwell experts out there?

As mentioned on another forum, that looks like a badly formatted date, yyy ymmdd instead of yyyy mmdd. Have you tried 202 30420 (for today)?

Try updating the Foxwell Software via the FoxAssist - it helped me

For those owning the NT530: How does the NT530 to the newer NT630? Will the NT630 do everything the 530 does?

I ended up doing this and it worked fine. Thanks for the suggestion.

I could not reset my service due indicator yesterday due to the date issue. Can you post what version of the foxwelll software you installed? When I log on to foxwell it tells me I am up to date. Thanls.

Never had luck updating, it just spins. So I’ve just used default date presented in screen. It gives you correct miles to next service, eg oil change.

Thanks I will try that. Maybe some year Foxwell will make it more user friendly.
