does it have to be fiat 16pin obd usb cable or will any work

no, as long as the pinouts are the same, the Fiat ODB convertor cable also allows the pinouts to be changed to check engine, airbags etc. if the cable has the same pinout as the airbag, then you will not be able to check engine diag's, only airbag diag's.

Hi, after following all the instructions and advice, I'm still not having any joy in connecting my 1997 Fiat Punto 60 s to the ECU. The IAW Scan 2 software does not appear to see the ECU. What’s more puzzling when I first connected the VAG KKL COM USB ODB 2 DIAGNOSTIC CABLE and the Fiat 3 pin adaptor to my laptop (running Vista) it begins searching for a driver - is this normal? Any ideas to what I've missed?
Kind regards

It may even need a driver. Can Windows find one?

But this is probably best deal with by a Support Request here.

have you got the program on auto ecu select? I have issues with that, try actually selecting the right ecu from the list - number on sticker on ecu itself

I tried that just came up with an error code"ECU not responding" and then froze. After connecting to the Internet and waiting 5 - 10 minutes window's finally found a driver. I'm going to give it another go.

Not sure how or what I did, but I managed to connect to the ECU and logged this data:
(The software didn't recognize my cars make or model, but did in a previous attempt!!).

haven't a clue what this all means, but if there's anyone out there who can point me in the right direction i would be eternally grateful.

We'd need to know what the issue was, first!

The engine races erratically when idling. I've changed the HT leads, coil packs and sparkplugs. Runs a lot better but the underlying problem is still there. I'm looking to change the lambda sensor to try and solve this annoying problem.

try this

Replaced the 02 sensor. The engine is idling slightly higher than normal with a loud ticking noise coming from the cams. The power also feels down on acceleration.
