Hi Guys...bought a USB OBD11 fault code reader off ebay...after a lot of faffing about to get it to connect to the laptop...I have got it up and running now,

Using Scantool.net software it came with...only able to use the first 2 pages of info unless I pay for the full prog,

I'm new to using these devices...only got it to clear a fault light on my daughters KA after the coil pack failed which it did without problem,

So out of curiosity...just what can I do with it...I dont understand most of the data it displays interesting as it is,

Is there any other free software available that may give more info that the scantool stuff I have.

Nick.

 

Hi Nick
Probably not much use to you, but i bought a bluetooth one that i can connect to free 'ignition' software on phone / tablet. It cost about £12 off #bay
I too dont understand most of it, but it can turn off mil light and advise sensors that are out of range etc.
Cheers
Kevin
