The analysis found the reason: The software of Piwis Tester II is version V18.1500, this version is the version before 2021, and the date of the computer is now 2021, so the software cannot run normally.

The solution is: adjust the computer date before 2020, restart the computer, and then run the software, the operation is OK
As shown in the figure below, whether the date has been adjusted successfully, open the software and look at the arrow at the position of the date to make it clear. If the date before 2020 is still displayed, the software can be used normally.

As the software of piwis 2 cant update any more , it cant test Porsches after 2018. We recommended that you can use the latest Porsche Piwis 3 Diagnostic Tool.
