    Reason you will want an SD card is that you save log files to the card and then upload them for the knowledgeable folks to analyze them.

    I think you can upload the log files via the USB cable from nanocom to your computer too. This info is Windoze specific. Not sure how it all works on the Apple ecosystem tho.

    There used to be a lot of chatter about SD cards not working back in the day, I think it was due to the card brand type or something. Because of that, I'd say get one from a local retailer that are usually good for exchanges(eg. officeworks/JB blah blah) where you can easily swap it.

    Last thing you need in your current situation is to wait weeks for the nanocom to come, and have tech issues trying to save data from it.
    For error codes you can just take a shot of the screen, but to save stuff, you need the SD card.

    I'm putting this here as it is connected. After a few struggles mine drove last night Beautiful, but brief. Stopped after about 500 metres, and is sulking. I also have the M&S. However, I DO have a nanocom. In the autobox section I get the P1842 and 1843 codes. clearing the codes puts the M&S out for maybe a second. I believe the XYZ is working. I did have a low battery yesterday, but it charged fine and started the car instantly... All I have done is replace the wiring to the CPS. And the car has run many times since then. Cranks fine, I hear the fuel pump. Sigh. I will check battery voltage, but it makes no sense that it started many times, I was runnng it for at least 20 minutes to burp the cooling system, and then it just stopped.

    Next stop has to be the fusebox, I guess. The sunroof has been leaking a fair bit in all the rain we have had... Must remember to clear the drains...

    Fusebox is not corroded like last time, but it is wet. Not hugely, but I cleaned the drains yesterday, so maybe it was wetter before it could dry. In any case, Drying is happening.

    Dunno if you can pick it up from this. Wet under the lower relays as well. Of course, I don't know yet if this is the problem, but it's definitely A problem.

    I'll check this on mine tomorrow, only noticed my leak because water was dripping out of the plastics near the fuses onto my legs.... so I assume i will have this too, the downside for me is I don't even get a sunroof and still get the leaks
