Looks reasonable. I would say your hardware is working correctly.

Try it in RS232 Comm Tool (1335)

Code:
TX>78133500<TX
133598133598
13359813359813
359813359813

35981335981335
981335981335
The Hex Com Tool shows that the ECU is consistantly returning a value of 98 hex, which is 12.16 volts. Sounds about right. I don't know why the VWRX program would report anything else. It may be worth emailing Kevin or asking via the forum on his site.

That ECU ID looks reasonable. It is similar to the one from my Legacy (7432A1). It looks like Evoscan is also reading good data.

Yeah. If only such a tool existed. The only way to accurately find the values is to reverse-engineer the program code. You need to be a computer geek with assembly language skills and a lot of spare time.
Some of the locations on my Legacy ECU match the ones for ROMID 7332xx in the VWRX SelectMonitor.ini file, so you could try those. It may be worth talking to Vikash (vrg3) on the LegacyCentral website. He has done a lot of work on decoding the Legacy ECU.

Sorry, I don't have any kind of Instant Messenger set up at work.
