Not sure if this will help/work but you can get a program for free called ecuexplorer, you would just need a cable then.

Might be worth googling.

thanks boro,yes i seen that link on here before,but trying to get hold of the lead is expensive,so thought the product on ebay should work and half the price, by the way ,where in cornwall you too,as live in good old sunny hayle,. lewis

Currently have the Scangauge II which has the ability to look up fault codes and also reset the ECU. But can then be used to monitor things such as MPG, IA Temp, Battery voltage etc.... Nice piece of kit.

Agree with Jpor the scanguage II Is a great and relatively inexpensive way of resetting CEL Lights and fault codes as well as keeping a eye on important bits

A PSI3 would offer similar functionality and can be dash or pod mounted. Not sure if their website is back up yet but I may a have a picture of one in My Scooby<<<<

www.psi3.co.uk but it is offline at the moment, and has been for some time.

thats great mate cheers.

I'll keep trying it

If you permanently connect the Scangauge, where can it be mounted so it is not loose and potentially rattling or bouncing about? (would prefer somewhere below dash level).

Psi3 have ceased trading but a nice piece of kit to find second hand
