Firmware Update Error on V3 Interfaces |
The Interface Firmware is updated to support new models, or correct issues.
The V3 Interfaces are recognized by Windows as 2 different devices depending on what position the device switch is placed.
The switch to the Left is only for updating the Firmware. The switch to the Right is for all ECU communications, Reading, Writing, Engine Data, Diagnostics.
If you have started a firmware update/reinstallation, and the software gives an error after starting the update, such as: "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.
You can try resetting the USB Drivers using these steps below:
With the WRT software not running. - 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 position, and connect it to your PC
- 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 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, and move the switch to the Left, 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 Logbox. 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 LogBox with the switch in the Right Hand position.
You should then be able to complete any firmware updates, or connect to the ECU correctly.

Logbox V3 LED Lights Information |
When the Logbox 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 Logbox 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 Logbox v3 is connected to the bike only. The Logbox 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.
LogBox/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)

What is the difference between the USB Interface and the Log Box? |
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.

Diagnosing "Failed to Sync Baud Rate" |
Failed to sync is 90%+ of the time a harness issue either with the pinout or installation. But it can also be a few other things. There is a pretty easy checklist to run through.
1) Harness issues
- Verify all your wires are fully set into their connectors by gently tugging on them. If they back out, they are not set. - Look at the front of the connectors to ensure the pins are fully set, not bent or skewed and look like other OEM pins/connectors if applicable - Perform a wire continuity check on all the wires and verify you have continuity end to end on each individual colored wire. - Verify pinout and installation by sending us photos and 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 a minute and restart it. It's important to do a full shutdown, sit and restart as opposed to a simple restart. This approach clears all contents of RAM which may include config or temp data that may be conflicting.
- 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. Check the voltage direct 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 loads attached and ensure you have 12-14 VDC. If able to safely, or you have a dedicated, adjustable power supply check 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.

Engine Data logging settings |
To log data to the Logbox SD Card, you just need to connect your Logbox to your PC, and set your Log Start Configuration in the Tools > Device Configuration Page. The Default "Log Start Configuration" settings are:
Time Delay (secs) = 0 (This option set the time delay from power on, to when data logging starts)
Engine Running = not ticked (This option delays datalogging until the engine is detected as running.)
RPM = 0 (This option sets the RPM Trigger that starts data logging)
Log data to micro SD in Engine data Mode = not ticked. (This Option will log the Live Engine data to the SD Card while you are viewing the Live Engine Data screen)
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 User Guides and Installation Manuals page, and if your model has a "Universal Harness with OBD2 Engine Data" guide, then you will need to tick this option , and save to the Logbox.)
CAN Logging = not ticked (This is a troubleshooting option that you may be asked to use by the Woolich Support Team. Please do not tick this option unless asked to)
When changing the Start Log Configuration, be sure to click Save so the settings are saved to the Logbox.
Having all options set to 0 or unticked, will make the Logbox record data as soon as power is supplied.
Disconnect the Logbox from your PC, and connect it to your Bike harness. Start the bike, and check the LED's on the Logbox, the green and orange should flash quickly, and the red one should flash briefly every few seconds. This indicates the Logbox is receiving data, and recording it to the SD Card.
