OOPS! AN ERROR HAS OCCURED. Sorry me hearties, there be pirates in these waters and they've scuppered me vessel.

Best try again in a few minutes. In the meantime, flog ye olde cabin boy and have some more rum.

Hi,

i'm using two adapters. One is that one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Interface-AutoDia-fuer-Fiat-Alfa-Romeo-Lancia-OBD-2-Diagnose-OBD2-Tester-USB-/152596959601?_trksid=p2349526.m4383.l4275.c10.

The second one is a (blue) KKL Adapter but not the version for VAG cars. I own the latter adapter as well, and i can say that it doesn't work properly on my Fiat. I bought another one which i found by searching for "Fiat Alfa Diag blue adapter" on ebay. I'm sorry that i cannot recall the exact version but as far as i can remember the price was not higher than 20€ three years ago.

The Multiecuscan version i use came from an UK site which i'm unable to remember. After long time searching i found a thread on some UK forum in which this source was mentioned. I searched for earlier versions of that source on archive.org and managed to find the mentioned copy. The trick is that they offer just an old (5.6 version i think) free version which can be unlocked for one start. The next time you start it you must unlock it again. Since it didn't run properly on Win1064 i picked an elderly notebook computer on which i installed Win732. That helped.

I know that there is a bit to search for. The alternative is to buy the whole packet from an authorized dealer.

Good luck
