Generic OBDII Scan Tools
I can also say (just putitng my $.02 in) that Generic OBDII scan tools often will not work properly with many European vehicles. They will establish communication, so long as the data BUS isn't faulty and the 16 pin OBDII connector has proper power and ground, however the data retrieved may wind up ...
