SlickGT1 is on a distinguished road
Ok guys I need help. Something is up with my car / gt1 (twins). So first off, I used the gt1 last week when doing the trans pan drop. Everything went great. I decided to use it yesterday to see if any of the previous codes came back. Now nothing changed in the car or laptop.

So I connect it yesterday and get some weird shit. Before, the car would get recognized automatically. I didn't have to do anything. This is the message I get.

IDENT_E53 / Message 1a
No data could be determined from the vehicle. automatic vehicle identification cannot proceed.

This may be due to the following causes.
-Unknown model variant
-Diagnosis bus faulty
-EWS defective
-EWS replaced and not encoded

Continue with manual identification.

So I go to manual identification, run a quick test, and nothing comes up. I tried restarting it all.

Computer, the connection bars light up. The yellow head, green light and solid yellow light. Everything seems fine with pc. Only thing I can thing off is that some setting got reset as the computer laid unplugged for a week? I don't know that sounds stupid, but are there settings that I should check?

Back to the message I get.
-Unknown model variant, ok I get it, it can't detect car. It doesn't even want to connect.

-diagnosis bus faulty. WTF, the obi port? How is that even possible.

-EWS defective. What is this? Is this the security of the car? Everything seems to work fine. Lock unlock, start drive al the good stuff.

-EWS replaced and not encoded? WTFx2? I didn't replace anything.

So I also get a temporary disturbance in bus line message while trying to mess with other things in DIS.

What should I try? Should I try disconnecting the battery? Is there some ip issue with the DIS? How do I check IP in the DIS anyway?

Twins I hope you don't mind I'm going to give you a call today to pick your brain. I would be great to get this to work by the time my parts actually show up from ecst.

Thanks all in advance.
