Anybody knows?
Car is registered on 06-2000, but is actually build on 09-1999.
I can buy a scantool to read the ECU, but it's for OBD2 cars from 2000 on....!!

Hi Peter,
Found this old thread. Did you find anything out? I think we have the same model.
I'm probably getting Multiecuscan for my Ducato and hoped it would address my Palio as well.
Cheers,
David

I never found a tool to read the ECU on our Palio, I'm afraid.
So I have to go to a dealer to have it read.

Thanks Peter. That's a bummer, I just bought an adapter cable too:-( (only a few quid)

Palio is OBD (I), only after about 2002 all cars became OBDII, and that's the common standard these days.

For OBD 1 (and depending on your ECU) you might try IAW Scan 2.

Update. I can read using Multiecuscan with the K-line and 3-way adapter.

Interesting.
Tell us more details if you will.

I don't have a full list, but this is part of the session:-
READING PARAMETERS:
Engine speed: 1050 rpm
Engine temperature: 53 °C
Spark advance: 0.5 deg.
Injection time: 4.5792 ms
Knock sensor signal: 0.0000 V
Engine load: 123.76 mg/i
Intake pressure: 386 mBar
Lambda sensor signal: 0.8673 V
Engine start permission: Allowed


And:
READING PARAMETERS:
Engine start permission: Not Allowed
EXECUTING ACTUATOR...
Failure indicator light
COMPLETED

EXECUTING ACTUATOR...
RPM Counter
COMPLETED

EXECUTING ACTUATOR...
Fuel pump relay
COMPLETED

EXECUTING ACTUATOR...
Evaporation control valve
COMPLETED


Interesting that my key code indicator has been overridden somehow by the dealer (intermittent problem), but the ECU is aware of the true status.


If I have time tomorrow I'll run a full session. She's up on blocks at the moment following brake and transmission boot change.

I did some screen caps of the interface.

Good afternoon,where is the diagnoctic input on my fiat Palio weekend 1.6 16v 2004 model

Hi,
I had a 1999/2000 model (now sadly departed ).

It had a 3 pin plug/socket under the bonnet, I can't remember exactly where.

Do you have the 3-way adapter? I may have one still if you don't, but postage might be an issue.

Had to abandon mine when I left France in 2015. Two of the biggest mistakes I ever made.
