Troubleshooting "Page 1" Common Errors
Based on the 147+ pages of replies on MHH AUTO, here are the top three errors and fixes.
1. USB driver installation for Autocom CDP+ (Windows 10/11)
Common driver issues:
- Device shows as “unknown” or “Autocom CDP+” without driver.
- Driver signature enforcement blocks installation.
Solution approach:
- Use
CDP_Driver_Setup.exe(from Autocom/Delphi or MHH Auto user uploads). - For Windows 10/11, disable driver signature enforcement temporarily:
- Shift + Restart → Troubleshoot → Advanced → Startup Settings → Disable driver signature enforcement.
- Install the
.infdriver manually via Device Manager.
Step-by-step to get it working (from the MHH thread)
- Download the "AutoCOM CDP USB Driver Pack v2.3 (MHH Fix)" from the first post.
- Uninstall any previous CDP drivers via
dismor a driver cleaner (e.g., DriverStoreExplorer). - Disable Driver Signature Enforcement (Windows 8/10/11 only).
- Plug in the CDP without software running. When Windows asks for driver, point it manually to the extracted folder.
- Open Device Manager → Ports (COM & LPT). Right-click the "AutoCOM USB" entry → Properties → Port Settings → Advanced → change COM port number to COM5 or higher (avoid COM1-4).
- Reboot (reenable signature enforcement if needed – the driver will stay loaded only until you unplug the device).

- Autocom CDP 2010 (Old Blue/Yellow casing): Uses the FTDI 2.08.24 driver set. The MHH pack usually includes a folder labeled "CDP_2010_Legacy". Do not use the 2013 drivers on this hardware; it will cause an infinite reboot loop of the CDP device.
- Autocom CDP 2013+ (Black casing / Delphi branding): Uses the updated FTDI 2.12.00 set. This is the primary focus of Page 1 of the thread.
