| I have a Firmware Update Error for a USB v3 or a Log Box v3 |
The Woolich Racing Tuned software (WRT) runs on a computer which communicates with the ECU using an electronic interface. There are two types of Woolich Racing communication interfaces currently available for sale, a USB v3 interface and a Log Box v3 interface. This article applies to all of the USB v3 and Log Box D v3 interfaces. These devices have a software program (firmware) on them which allows them to talk to the WRT software and the ECU. When the communication is connected to the computer and the WRT software is started, the software will check the firmware on the interface to make sure it is the latest version. Sometimes a firmware update can fail due to internet connectivity, a damaged USB cable or other reason. If you find yourself in this situation please do not panic as the Woolich Racing technical support team have seen these problems before. Please open a support ticket so that we can provide you with further information to get you up and running again.

| I have a COM Port Error - How to Rollback USB Drivers |
The Woolich Racing Tuned software runs on a computer which communicates with the ECU using an electronic interface. There are two types of Woolich Racing communication interfaces currently available for sale, a USB v3 interface and a Log Box v3 interface. This article applies to all of the USB v3 interfaces as well as the Log Box D v3. These connect to the computer (or laptop) using a USB cable, the computer then detects these device as a COM Port which enables the WRT software to use serial communication to talk to the interface. Sometimes after a Windows update the devices are no longer detected correctly by the computer or the Woolich Racing Tuned software. If you find yourself in this situation please do not panic as the Woolich Racing technical support team have seen these problems before. Please open a support ticket so that we can provide you with further information to get you up and running again.

| What is the difference between the USB Interface and the Log Box Interface? |
The Woolich Racing Tuned software which runs on a computer communicates with the ECU using an electronic interface. There are two types of Woolich Racing interfaces currently available for sale; a USB v3 interface, and a Log Box v3 interface.
USB v3 interface
Log Box v3 interface
A USB interface allows you to read and write to an ECU, access diagnostics (for bin files which have it available) and view some live engine data. The USB interfaces are not compatible with some of the newer models. Please check the products page for a model to determine which interfaces are supported. A Log Box interface can do everything that a USB can, and also allow you to record engine data while running the bike and log AFR (Air-fuel ratio) data when used together with the Zeitronix ZT-3/ZT-4 wideband sensor kit (model dependent). These additional features on the Log Box also allow you to use our Woolich Racing AutoTune feature in the WRT software. The letter on the interface denotes what ECU type it is capable of flashing. - B: Bosch ECU's
- D: Denso ECU's
- D-CAN: Denso ECU's using CAN Bus protocols
- K: Keihin ECU's
- M: Mitsubishi ECU's
- M-Duc: Mitsubishi-Ducati ECU's
- H: Harley Davidson ECU's (only for approved tuning shops)
Note: Engine Data is not available for all models.

| Log Box v3 LED Lights Information |
When the Log Box v3/USB v3 is connected to the PC with the USB Cable. The Green LED stays solid when idle and connected to the PC. The Red LED indicates ECU Read/Write is happening..
When the Log Box v3/USB v3 is connected to the PC with the USB Cable and you are viewing Live Engine Data. The Green and Orange LED's indicate engine data is being requested, and received. The Red LED indicates that Engine Data is being sent to the PC.
When the Log Box v3 is connected to the bike only. The Log Box v3 will start data logging. (depending on the Device Configuration: Log Start Configuration settings) The Green and Orange LED's indicate engine data is being requested, and received. The Red LED indicates data is being saved to the SD Card. The USB v3 will do nothing.
Log Box/USB faults. If all 3 LED's are flashing together at the same time, this means the device is in Firmware Mode. Either the switch is in the Left position, or the software has put it into Firmware Mode. (The software can put the device in firmware mode automatically when it sees a new update is available for it, normally no user interaction is required for the auto-updates)
There is normally no reason to move the switch unless you are performing a manual firmware update/reinstallation.
If all 3 LED's are flashing in sequence, one after the other, this means the device can not detect the SD Card. The SD Card must be fitted, for normal use of the device. Try formatting the Card (format as FAT32/default settings)

| Firmware Update Error on v3 Interfaces |
Woolich Racing uses communication interfaces like Log Box or USB to allow the Woolich Racing Tuned software to communicate with the ECU. The interface firmware is sometimes updated to support new models, or correct issues so it is important to update the Interface firmware version from time to time.
The v3 interfaces are recognized by Windows as 2 different devices depending on what position the device switch is placed.
The switch should be moved to the left position to update the Firmware only, otherwise the switch should be in the right position for all other operations including ECU communications, Reading, Writing, Engine Data, Diagnostics, etc.
If you have started a firmware update/reinstallation, and the software gives an error after starting the update, such as one of the following: - "This operation could not be completed"
- "COM Port could not be opened"
- "Cannot access a disposed object"
- "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
This usually means there is a USB issue. Please first try reformatting the micro SD card or replacing the micro SD card. If that does not work then please try resetting the USB Drivers using these steps below:
- Open Windows Device Manger (right click Windows Start button)
- Click View > Devices by Container (Important!)
 - With the LogBox unplugged, put the switch in the right-hand side position, and connect it to your PC using the supplied USB cable.
- The interface (Log Box or USB) should appear in a Container called Woolich Racing or similar, as shown below:
 - Wait for it to appear in the list, and click the small dropdown arrow next to it.
- Starting at the bottom of that list, right click on each entry, and select Uninstall Device, (tick remove driver software if available in the next window)
 - Repeat this process to remove all drivers for the Woolich device until it completely disappears from the list.
- Unplug the interface from the USB cable, and move the switch to the left-hand side, and connect it back to your PC
- Wait for it to appear in the list again, and click the small dropdown arrow next to it.
- Starting at the bottom of that list, right click each entry, and select Uninstall Device, (tick remove driver software if available in the next window).
- Remove all drivers for the Woolich device until it disappears from the list.
- Unplug the interface from the USB cable and plug it back in, wait 20 seconds, and unplug it, and move the switch back to the Right, and reconnect, wait 20 seconds (for drivers to load)
- Once complete, start WRT again, and connect the interface with the switch in the right-hand side position.
You should then be able to complete any firmware updates, or connect to the ECU correctly.

| Format Micro SD card - v3 Log Box |
If you are having difficulty with viewing and updating your Log Box, saving or viewing WRL log files it may be due to a problem with the Micro SD card, and formatting the Micro SD card may correct the problem.
If you are able to see the Log Box in Windows File Explorer as a USB drive (as shown below), you should be able to format directly while the Micro SD card in inserted into the Log Box.
If you are unable see the Log Box in Windows File Explorer you will need to use an external card reader to format the Micro SD card. In this case you will need to remove the micro SD card and format it using a USB card reader and your desktop computer. - Remove the Micro SD card from the Log Box v3
- Insert the Micro SD card into an external card reader connected to your PC
- The Micro SD card should appear in Windows as an external hard disk (see image above)
Regardless of whether you are formatting the card in the Log Box or an external card reader, the steps are the same as follows:
- Right click on the micro SD drive in windows and choose 'Format'
- Under 'File system' select FAT32
- Leave all other default settings unchanged
- Click Format
- Once formatting has completed you can remove the Micro SD card from your PC or card reader, and re-install it into the Log Box.

| My Interface says it's registered to another user |
Woolich Racing communication interfaces are used to allow the software running on the PC to 'talk' to the ECU. All communication interfaces (eg. USB, Log Box) are registered to only be used by the account that initially purchased them. If you try to use an interface that belongs to another account, or you have purchased a second hand interface, you will get an error saying "This device is registered to another user". You will not be able to use it until the device has been transferred to your own account, thereby making you the 'owner'.
To transfer the device, we must have permission from the current registered owner.
If you are in contact with the previous owner, please ask them to Open a Support Ticket, to let us know they have sold the hardware to you.
If you are not in contact with the previous owner or don't know who they are, we will need to contact them to seek permission to complete the transfer. We may ask you to connect the device to your PC, so we can find the owner.
We do not approve any transfer where we do not have permission from the registered owner.

| Diagnosing "Failed to Sync Baud Rate" |
The Woolich Racing Tuned software is used to read/write information from an ECU and uses different communication protocols based on the specific ECU. Sometimes there are problems with the communication and an error like "Failed to Sync Baud Rate" is shown in the software. The error "Failed to Sync Baud Rate" is typically caused by harness issue either with the pinout or installation, this accounts for about 90% of the cases that we support. There are a few other possibilities which are detailed here, this is a pretty easy checklist to run through so please take a few a minutes to review this information before creating a Support Ticket.
1) Harness issues
- Verify that all of your wires are fully inserted into their connectors by gently pulling on them and checking whether they move or not. If they are able to move from the connector housing then they are a likely cause of the problem. You will need to unlock and locking tabs on the connector, re-insert the pin, and then lock the locking tab on the connector again. - Look at the front of the connectors to ensure the wires/pins are fully inserted, are not bent and that they look like other OEM pins/connectors if applicable - This should be checked for ALL of the wires connecting to the ECU (bike or bench harness) as well as the wires going to your communication interface (Log Box or USB). - Perform a wire continuity check using a multimeter on all the wires and verify that you have continuity end to end on each individual colored wire. - Verify pinout and compare your installation with the photos in the installation guide, you can also send us photos so that we can verify the installation is correct and the harness itself is correctly assembled.
2) PC related issues
- Shut down your PC, let it sit for a few minutes and then restart it. It's important to do a full shutdown, sit for some time and then restart as opposed to a simple restart via the software. This approach clears all contents of RAM which may include configuration or temporary data that may be conflicting with the Woolich Racing Tuned software..
It is also worth trying the following:
- Try a different USB cable - Try a different USB cable in a different PC - Try a different PC altogether
3) Interface related issues:
4) Power Supply Issues - If bike flashing, turn the key on and kill switch on but do not start the bike. Measure the voltage directly at the battery and confirm you have 12.9 VDC or more. If 12.8VDC or less - put on a tender and let it charge for a while then retry later with the tender still on. - If bench flashing, check your power supply with no load attached and ensure you have 12-14 VDC. Please check your power supply (if able to be completed safely) and verify your current is between 1-2A.
If you get to this point and none of those have helped, then it is very possible this ECU has been reflashed elsewhere and locked by that software that last flashed it.

| Diagnosing "Write ECU" and Harness Installation Errors |
If you are experiencing issues with reading or writing to your ECU, please watch this troubleshooting video and refer to the detailed information below.
The most common reasons the write process is interrupted are: - Harness Connection/Installation issue:
- Check the Installation Guide and double check each step of the install.
- Check you have fitted any extension harness correctly to the ECU plug.
- Check all the wires are firmly locked into the ECU plug, and are not loose.
- Check your diagnostic plug is clean, and making good contact (if used)
- Low or Loss of Power to the ECU:
- Battery power should be 12.8v or more.
- Run/Stop switch must be in the RUN position.
- Check for a loose connection between the Interface and the ECU
- Do not move the interface/harness during flashing (aka loose connection)
- Connect a battery charger at the same time, (So the battery does not drain while flashing)
- Check you are switching the Ignition key on/off at the right time. (follow software prompts)
- Computer interrupted the write process:
- PC should be checked that all updates are installed, and has been restarted.
- Check the PC is not busy doing background tasks
- Check your PC is powerful enough to keep up with the ECU write speed (Minimum Dual Core 2.4Ghz, 4 Gig Ram. Recommended i5 with 8 Gig Ram)

| Engine Data logging settings |
The Woolich Racing Log Box products allow data to be written (logged) to an micro-SD card while the bike is being run on the street, track or dyno. The Log Box will typically start logging data whenever the ignition is started AND the device is NOT connected to the computer.
The exact settings about how the data logging works can be modified by the user in the Woolich Racing Tuned software on the computer. These settings can be viewed by connecting the Log Box to your PC and setting your Log Start Configuration which can be found under Tools > Device Configuration Page as shown below.
The Log Start Configuration is shown as in the screenshot below:
The Default "Log Start Configuration" settings are:
Time Delay (secs) = 0 - The number of seconds to delay before starting to log data after the device is powered on. This setting is useful if you would like to delay data logging to prevent log files from being created when starting the bike for short amounts of time.
Engine Running = not ticked - When this option is checked the engine must be running before data will be logged. This setting is useful to prevent logging data when the key is turned on but the engine is not running.
RPM = 0 - The RPM that the engine must go above before data logging will begin. This setting is useful to delay the start of data logging until the engine has been taken above the selected RPM.
Log data to micro-SD in Engine data Mode = not ticked. - This setting creates data logs on the Interface when in normal operation mode. It is useful if you are using the Interface on the dyno to monitor engine data and you would also like to log data to be used with the Woolich Racing AutoTune.
OBD2 Engine data = not ticked - This option is required for models that use OBD2 engine data protocol. You can see it your model requires OBD2 data by checking the Engine Data Type' in the Bin File Details. If your model shows the Engine Data type: "OBD2 - CAN", then you will need to tick this option, and save to the Log Box.
CAN Logging = not ticked - This is a troubleshooting option that you may be asked to use by the Woolich Racing Support Team. Please do not tick this option unless asked to by one of our Support Technicians.
After making changes to the the Start Log Configuration, be sure to click the Save button so that the settings are written to the Log Box.
If all options set to 0 or unticked, the Log Box will start recording data as soon as power is supplied (ie. when the key is turned).
After the Log Start Configuration has been set, you can disconnect the Log Box from your PC, and connect it to your Bike harness. You should then start the bike engine, and check the LEDs on the Log Box - the green and orange LEDs should flash quickly, and the red one should flash briefly every few seconds. This indicates the Log Box is receiving data, and recording it to the micro-SD Card.
