Default 991 Engine Hours

I'm trying to pull the engine hour information from my car, but I'm at a bit of a loss right now. Hoping the experts here can help! I've downloaded Racecon and have an MSA 2 box to connect to the car. I've tried using this to connect to the car, but I seem to be missing some configuration file or something for the ECU. I got some files from Jerry here on Rennlist, but when I try to load them, it asks for a license. In the files that he sent is a license file, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to load the license file. It can't be this hard to connect to the ECU! What am I missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Contact PMNA - the files are available from them depending on your MY car and such. That will give you the license as needed.

no need to use racecon, go in the others pages of the cosworth by holding the yellow display button for a few seconds, on the the pages will have the engine hours. the cars needs to be running for that page to be selectable

If you want to use racecon, make sure you're car software and your racecon are the latest versions. if you have an older version on the computer than what's in the car they will have a hard time communicating. if you send me your email I can send you the new versions of the computer and car's software

Are you running RaceCon as an Administrator? (right click icon, choose Run As Administrator).

Loading the license file is as simple as copying it into the RaceCon Folder (C Drive/Program Files (x86)/Bosch Motorsport/RaceCon) :

Thanks so much to everyone for the help! I was able to connect with Racecon and get the info I needed. Rennlist to the rescue again!
