INPA - cant connect to all modules FIXT

Ok, so I finally got a laptop with INPA and a cable.

INPA sees power and ignition on.

Trying to scan the entire car and it cant read a lot of modules.

Engine and transmision it can detect, read, and clear errors and adaptations.

Other parts of the car, not so much.

Any suggestions on where to start?

I had the same problem until I soldered pins 7 and 8 together.

Ok, couldnt find my soldering iron so I got some bare wire and used it to bridge pin 7 and 8. Reads most of it now. Thanks blackbeast!

I do get a few "version is different" errors and a few errors here and there. Still playing around with it.
