Anyone with microtech? I need help

I have been fusing around with my microtech and donglke and computer to connect to each other so i can adjust my tps etc. My car starts but the tps isnt set so it runs funny. Does anyone live in WA that can drive over to my house and bring their laptop to help me setup my microtech on my 13b? i am soo irritated you don't understand. Please anyone, I have a dongle and lots of cords, just can't get the connection to the computer work.

I have the microtech lt10s. I need someone with a laptop or hand controller. none of my computers will talk to the microtech to setup the engine.

rx72nr: is your tuner in a shop? or does he drive to me cause my car will not drive anywhere at the moment...

Gary works at his home on the weekends, give him a call. He lives near Gig Harbor and can trailer your car or work on it at your house too.

Where in WA? I need to visit my folks in Lacey and can easily help you. Worked on a few LT-10's and 12's.

I called gary, he told me to just wiggle the cord in the ports, no luck... The ecu will connect to my pc when the dongle is dont plugged in but no data values are present. with the dongle inline, the pc says ecu not connected. So i am belief to either buy the handset or the white dongle. I have the black dongle and I think the white one is meant for pc use... Anyone know if the white one is the one I need. By the way, I live in everett, and need help!

First, what laptop are you using? Second, what are your com settings? Do you have the right ports/on off/baud rate setup right?
