According to Atlantic British, the height of a P38 in standard ride height with stock tyres measured from the ground to the top of the wheel well is 31-3/4 in the front, and 32 in the rear. Don't know the rest of the setting heights.
hellooo
turn your key to the 2nd pos then plug your ODB-2 cable into the car then into the laptop with the rs232 to usb adapter on the cable and plug into your laptop.
if you have the drivers and it says ready to use then double click on your usb icon in your system toolbar and click on your rs232 to usb converter then properties, at the bottem you should see a button that says change settings open that and in this new window you should try to find the list of com ports you can choose.
i found that it didnt work with a normal 1 so i selected com 3 that said it was com3(in use) then click ok and open the EAScalibrate software and select com3 on that.
if this also fails then reply and i will try to help

Hi,
I've just joined.
I have used EAS with no prob. What was stressed to me was the importance of the cable. I made my own cable (OBD - USB). No converters. I just cut off the DB9 and wired direct to the OBD. The converter may be routing the wires incorrectly.
Might be worth the price of a lead. I could send you a wiring diagram if you wish.
Did you get your software from Storey Wilson(RSWsolutions)? If not, I can also send you it. Hope this helps

Hi
Your OBD - DB9(serial) lead, if you did not make this lead up yourself, then please check the corresponding pins conform to correct continuity. Hold the plugs in hand & look at the shape as shown. Put a continuity tester on each corresponding pin. Let me know if you have these values, or what values you have. Hope you got pic otherwise I will email.

Lug your desktop out there and trying it without the Rs232/USB converter seems to be the quickest and easiest solution to me.
In the time I've spent typing this, you could have tried that. At least there would have been some progress and we would have more information available instead of just carrying on stabbbing in the dark........

Hi
The Software: ‘EAS Unlock’ programme is (shareware) free software. If your computer does not have a serial port and you are using a USB to Serial port converter, you must load the converter software first prior to loading the ‘EAS Unlock’ software.
If you’re running an old version of Windows you may need Windows Service Pack 2 & Microsoft.net Framework. `
Any probs just ask
