fixed up a mates serial port over weekend.
Looks like he has one of those ones that don't work...LOL
Turned out the ribbon cable was wrong.
The pins are wired wrong way in the connector by the chinese.
they are supposed to be wired interleaved, but they did it the same way as a PC comm port which doesn't work.
Hope that helps someone who doesn't own a breakout box...LOL

Hope your problem is the same...there are a few different manufacturers now
tried this about 2months ago on one i had here... changing the ribbon cable did nothing... still no good... everything else works fine.
I only have one that does not work so no point trying to f*ck it yet Plus its under warranty
thanks alot mate!
