Autel has got some feedback from customers for updating Autel MaxiLink ML629 software. The Maxi PC Suit always prompts “Failed to find device” when connecting the ML629 device to computer.
Solution
1. Hold the left arrow button on Autel ML629, insert its wire into computer USB port. The screen will turn on, and say: ”Updated by USB”.
2. Open Maxi PC Suit software on computer to start scanning, it says “Failed to find device”. This is where a lot of people are probably having trouble.
Take out the Micro SD card that came with the device at the bottom, put it in a adapter and insert into computer.
3. Run the Maxi PC Suit software again, now you can successfully log in to update latest available upgrades.
Install and transfer it to the Micro SD card, then put the card back to Autel ML629 device. Updated is complete.
