   €13.5

To use Galletto 1260, you need a stable laptop computer with a fully charged battery. For best results windows XP can be used.

When you receive the tool you must first copy the contents of the disc(will package with the unit) onto your desktop. Next connect the USB cable to the laptop and allow Windows to automatically install the correct driver. The driver used will be an FTDI driver. If it does not install automatically you may have to go in to: Control panel> Performance and maintenance> System > Hardware> Device manager. In this menu you will be able to select the tool and update the driver.

2. How to read the ECU by Galletto 1260?If possible run an extension cable down to your car and connect your charger. Make sure there are no other programs running that could cause the computer to crash.

At first you should Remove the fuse box cover which is beneath the steering wheel. To do this you must turn the clip a quarter turn. Perhaps Need A large flat blade screw driver  to do the job instead you.
– then Connect the Galletto inferface to the car’s diagnostics port and Connect the USB side to the laptop.
