Default HELP.TTS Datamaster not reading a 1990 Vette?

Okay , it wouldnt work because its different software for different years. Can I use my code for the software I bought? Or do I have to buy new codes everytime I read another car ?
I currently have TTS Datamaster for the 93 LT1.

Yup, some cars will use the same definition but not many. You need the right "layout" for the data your getting for the '90.

I think TunerPro comes w/ the '90 as the free sample. I've used it on my '90 just a few weeks ago. I will admit I had a heck of a time getting it to work but once I did.... very cool.

They claim they will give you up to 3 times free on the same program based on comp. crashing. When using different software for the 90 they want an additional 40. for each program, and claim code will only work on each application. But you can always down load the 90 datamaster and try it.

I will try the free download, as I only need it for a few times anyways.

It needs to be the cable they specify on there site.
http://www.ttspowersystems.com/adapt_cable.htm
Or Cable one on this order page ,
http://www.akmcables.com/ic.htm
I have to go to My Computer, Hardware and tell the port "disable" then enable onceor twice then it will communicate on my 93.

Well you can see if anyone in Aus can make you one, or have someone send you a cable after you send them some money. I would post a message on the General area to see if anyone in AUS or close by has a cable, or is able to help you get one useing whatever financial means. The shipping there wouldnt be too bad, I would imagine. Steve
