Hmmm....! Very interesting most of those pages look very familiar BUT I cannot record parameters from engine ECU.
Now question is this model dependant, this was obtained from a Mk2 C5 so it would be interesting to know Citronel if you can get the same graph from a Mk1 C5 or a Xantia?

At this moment I did not had the chance to connect my interface to a C5-I or Xantia...

The amount of information available on a Lexia depends on what car its being used on, the general rule is the later the car the greater the information, for instance on a S1 Xantia the information is relatively basic compared with a S2 Xantia which in turn is very basic compared with a Multiplexed car such as a C5 or Picasso where you can also alter/add programming features for car options such as cruise control.

On my Lexia 2 when testing a particular component by way of an actuator test if there is an Info Rapid (service bulletin) published, that will also be displayed following the test. Do the Chinese Lexias have the same facility?

Chinese Lexia it is only the HW interface, sw it is original Lexia3 sw.

till Lexia3 v42 if you have installed latest info/schematics CD then you will have all service bulletins and other info.

from v43, 44, 45 looks like Cit migrate to online server information for diagram and infodiag, they also supplied solution to diagrams checking offline under the name SDRE.

I try to attach Lexia info magazine 36-45 here:

found cd45 and keygen. don't know how to use keygen yet but i will work on it. so far i get this message, i'm not computer savvy enough to understand what to do about it. someone with better understanding will probably understand this straight away

Sounds like you're using Vista, and maybe trying to install from a .zip file without extracting it first. May be wrong though, sorry if I'm insulting you intelligence with my reply.

its ok, i don't spend enough time with computers so i don't know them that well.

i'm on xp
it was in .rar form i opened it to an executeable but i think my security is blocking it somehow , so i tried to start it in safe mode, but it didn't want to boot up in safe mode.
i suppose this is something i will have to spend more time on to learn about

thanks

Ah, OK. Probably the same problem. Have you extracted all the files in the .rar archive to your computer? You should have a file on your computer accessible from My Computer which looks something like this:

You can then run the instlex3.exe file to install.

yea, lexia cd45 itself extracted fine. however it needs the pps2000 keygen so that it will work. and that is where i get the messages.

i got cd42 of ebay and that just installed and worked fine no keygen needed. i may go back to that if this doesn't work. cd42 is the only version i have ever tried

thanks
