    Can you identify this System?

    I am still not convinced my system is working correctly. Some days I have solid lights, others only flashing, nothing consistent. Yesterday was getting audible alarms which would only go after turning on lpg off then back on.
    I want to get a interface lead and software but cant identify what I have and need. In the attached photos can anyone identify what lead I need in the e-bay link. Also what is the hanging LED for?

    Hmmm...

    Wayne, is there a fly lead anywhere linked to the gas ecu? Locating that may give a hint to the interface lead required, and maybe the rest of the bits as well. Have a look, too, at MSC Electronics in Ankara for a listing of interface cables. Reasonably quick delivery to Oz and not expensive.

    Have finally found the data plug. Can anyone tell what lead I need. I understand this plug is common over many makes and its the wiring configuration thats different. If anyone can tell me of a well known brand that uses the same wiring config I can get one for that make.
    Pin 1 = black
    Pin 2 = Green
    pin 3 = yellow
    pin 4 = Red

    I have found a picture of a unit that looks exactly the same as mine. The sticker on it says AFC G3 . Is that a make and model?

    I solved my misfire issues by using Deoxit on all my connectors.

    Given the intermittent nature of your issue, I think some contact cleaning is worth a shot!

    Regards

    G`day ,

    think you`ll find AFC G3 denotes the software used .

    You could try KME it is a brand that uses that software , don`t know what else uses it as well .

    So things have progress a little. I have undone cleaned and refitted every connection I could find and low and behold things seem stable now.
    It still takes about 10 minutes of driving in the morning before I get any lpg level lights up then about 30 seconds after all lights are stable and car runs fine with no drop outs back to petrol. If I leave the car for up to 3 hrs when I come back it takes about 30 seconds for all lights to stabilise a run on LPG.
    I think my system is a KME Diago G3 going by their website and pictures so have downloaded their software and purchased a USB lead
    I have plugged it in but after a few second I get a message on the software
    " incorrect software" and the program shuts down completely. No sure where to go next. Either wrong software or wrong lead,

    Which KME software?

    I have a KME Akme system, the diagnostic lead, and the software.

    This is the same as my lead:



    Yours definitely looks like the G3 (below)

    The lead I got was a cheapo from ebay, just usb. The software I got direct from the KME website. There a two versions for Diego G3, I tried both with similar results.
    Cant get too much info from the web apart from others with exactly the same " incorrect software" message and shutdown.
    How do the LPG garages connect, they must need software for every possible setup and leads to match
    I tried the place that fitted the system in 2009 but the were not interested to check their records to advise what they fitted.
    Someone said these can have random firmware flashed to them so it looks like I am stuffed.
    Maybe there is a service the unit can be sent for a known firmware flash and software to tune?

    The software I have is:
    AkmeAU+USBDriver-1.45.2.3-v1.45-setup.exe

    I can email it to you. It's 2.5Mb

    I can lend you my cable but I do want it back!

    I can find out the KME importer for you - tomorrow.
