System tab: Board information is: none,none; Hardware Version: 0; Firmware Version: 0; New Board ID: 1

Ideas??
Yes, you have a communication issue.
Check your wiring. Especially make sure your RS232-CAN adapter is correct. When looking at RJ14 connector with the gold terminals up, as if to plug it into a socket directly in front of you, the color order (left to right) should be:
white, black, red, green, yellow, blue.

Have you gotten this to work with other Jaguars?
