Driver Enforcement: Disable Windows driver signature enforcement before installation to ensure the specialized USB drivers load correctly.

Administrator Mode: Always right-click the executable and select "Run as Administrator" to prevent read/write permission errors.

Voltage Stability: Connect a battery stabilizer to the vehicle. A drop in voltage during a diagnostic read or flash can corrupt the module. For issues, crash dumps, or feature requests:

Cable Sequence: Plug the USB interface into the PC first, open the software, and then connect the OBD2 cable to the vehicle. ⚠️ Critical Troubleshooting

"Device Not Found" Error: Check Windows Device Manager. If there is a yellow triangle, manually update the driver pointing to the software's installation folder.

Connection Timeouts: Reduce the baud rate in the software settings if the vehicle's ECU is responding slowly. Document version: 1

File Verification: Always create and save a complete backup (read) of the existing module before attempting to write or clear deep-level codes.
