Dealer can't program OBC?

I just received my Durametric Enthusiast.

I was able to connect it to my 03 Boxster. No codes (Yay!)

I have installed the OBC stalk, and it appears to be installed correctly. If I move the stalk in any of the directions at start up the oil level screen goes away.

I have tried to enable the OBC via the Durametric but have been unsuccessful.

The first time I try I get the following error:
Coding Change Failed

If I try again I get:
Did not receive the correct number of bytes from the control module.

If I try a third (or any consecutive) time it states that it is enabled (but it is not)

Same happens when I try to disable it.

Any ideas?

I wonder if this has been sorted out.

Same "Did not receive the correct number of bytes from the control module" error message here with Durametric Pro on a 2001 Boxster S

Thanks

Tried again to create and send a log to Durametric and sometimes it said "OBC is already enabled". Other times it just threw the usual "Didn't receive the correct number of bytes ..." error.

Exactly the same as what happened to littlewiggler.

Durametric said my OBC is enabled but why can't I use it then? I've done all the wiring and keep pressing all the buttons.

Just to make sure my wiring is correct.

I wired buttons to terminals 21, 22, 23, 24 of the grey connector on the back of the instruments cluster. These should be shorted to ground to navigate in the OBC menu.

As my new instrument cluster is the new version with the digit speedo in the left gauge I think these are the correct pins.

Can someone please confirm this.

The old cluster's wiring should be 20,21,22,25. My car was registered in 2000 but according the VIN it is 2001 and has the newer cluster.
