CARLY wifi adapter for rent

Hi all,

I don't suppose anyone has an iPhone CARLY adapter that i can borrow please? Carly don't know when they will be getting them back in, and nor do Amazon. I have a car with a dead battery at the moment.

Will post back to you as soon as i'm done.

Thanks
Andy

Where are you based? I'm sure people would rather help if you're local than post it. I have one and am in Northamptonshire

Yeah I got one off eBay couple of weeks ago & coded angel eyes as daytime running lights...digital speedo & comfort access lowers driver window with remote...pretty cool & easy to do!! It backups present firmware before writing with new one.

I might take you up on this at some point. Once i get my laptop screen fixed, i'm gonna look at getting a copy of Rheingold, so might come up to you for a steer on how to use it.


In other news, after harassing Amazon yesterday, it seems that my Carly dongle has magically turned up and is out for delivery today.

Can anyone confirm the eBay wifi ones can do auto folding mirrors

Pretty much the only reason I want to get one.

Unless there's someone near Southampton who had the app and that?

Thanks

If you was local I would have swung by and let you use mine. But at least you got it sorted in the end.

The ELM does the job. The only gripe is getting the settings right - the IP address they suggest is hit and miss. So it can be a mare to set up but works sweet once it is. You could use it with Carly app or similar apps. The Carly is nothing special bar having settings that are plug and play - no faffing around setting up an IP address as it can be used straight away.

Carly turned up but never got the chance to use it.
Battery has been changed but the car is completely dead. No remote unlock, no interior lights, car won't accept the key.

Got a feeling this isn't going to be good...

What are the ideal IP settings Buddy?

Do you change using the software provided?

SHE LIVES!!! Turns out if forgotten to wire up the big red cable that goes to the battery fuse. Thank Christ!!

Ok so now I need to register my battery. Carly has a few option to choose... 70a or 80a. My battery says it's 77a. Which one do I pick!?
