When you have trouble getting FF in the Rx buffer;
First check the cable construction.
Check the USB to Serial Adapter configuration; See video on www.RSWsolutions.com website
Make sure vehicle is running
Adjust idle delay slightly
Inspect EAS Delay relay
Inspect OBDII port
Clean OBDII port
Has the vehicle ever had a coolant leak from the heater core? If Yes: Drop right hand footwell panel and inspect OBDII port.
I would not use WD40 to clean the OBDII port. Oil is a very good insulator.
And I have indeed heard of regional Windows settings interfearing with the comm port function. Although this has usually been from eastern countries.
