I want to ask which Interface to use for Consult II cars, for example Primera P11C/114 ?
It has ODBII connector. Any idea ? And where to find correct pinout .
see the post right above yours...though a generic OBDII cable/reader would be cheapest thing to use. consult II cars are easy because you can just use generic OBDII stuff, not forced to use nissan consult specific things
I have just got a Nissan consult and would like to know more about its capabilities can you tell me more please? What can you use it to do and what cars will it work on? can you reset ignition timing or idle speed settings?
Any advice about this would be great although I have the operation manual it doesn't let you know what you can do with the unit
with consult you can do active tests which are temporary such as adding offset to ignition timing or fuel injection %. but u cant permanently save anything to the ECU
you can enter base idle mode which stops the ecu adjusting the idle and ignition timing so it allows you to both set correct timing (using timing light and adjustig the distributor etc), and then idle speed with idle screw etc.
it works on most cars with the consult plug (most new models after 89) and stopped around 96 in USA with obd2, and last models around 2000 (eg s15, r34) elsewhere
I received a nissan consult yesterday to test some of the solenoids on my 98 maxima. To operate this with my ECM do I need to attach it to a laptop using an RS232? Will the laptop need free_conzult SW installed?

Can someone please give me a simple explanation as to how to operate the Nissan Diagnostic Consult? Do I connected to the ECM with a laptop with FreeConzult SW? The nissan diagnostic consult has no display module so it definetly needs something connected to it?
its not a nissan consult if you mean the handheld pocketpc like unit that nissan use themselves. maybe you have a consult interface, something that plugs into the car and then into your pc, and then you use one of the software listed in main post to connect? (have car on or running)
