Hello everyone, I was thinking of buying a code reader to use on my Y plate scudo 2.0 JTD. Will any offered on fleabay work, or do I need an expensive one? Any advice would be welcome, Thanks.
JTD's are only obdII (well eodb actually) compliant from 2004. before that they used a fiat specific protocol and an ebay code reader wont work. i've tried mine on several JTD's and none have worked.
http://www.gendan.co.uk this company does a program to use on a laptop for fiat diesels before 2004. Its not advertised on there site at the minute but if you drop them a line they will confirm if its suitable for your car. I believe you get the interface and program for about £60.
Hello all, and many thanks for the replies to my query, I think I'll check over the basic mechanical stuff first and see if I can sort my problem out. No point laying cash out on something which may not work! Cheers, Martin.
