I run Windows 10 using Bootcamp and I am able access it. I did have to use the firewire connection. A USB to Ethernet adapter would not work.

Thanks, I will try looking at the firewall settings. I am using W-7 running under VMWare. I also have a windows netbook that I will try later today. Nikki and Mike mentioned there have been problems with Macs in the past. I also know of PC users having problems until they adjusted their Firewalls. All is good.. :D We were able to set the TPS manually,,, Thanks Nikki!!!

I was never able to get the ECU connection to work through VMWare Fusion to Windows 7 or 10; booting directly into Bootcamp worked in Windows 7

I've had problems with Windows 10 through Bootcamp connecting to the ECU, but will retry again once I get an Ethernet adapter on my new MacBook Pro now that I've done a clean Windows 10 install. Interested in how the Firewire connection worked as I thought the only way to get access to the ECU was through an Ethernet connection.
