Technical OBD2 connection

[Misfit1964]

Hi guys Declan from Australia here,trying to read faults on my 2013 Fiat Panda 0.9 and it keeps saying put in a 5 pin code to access anybody go this code?
Picture attached I have all the Marella plugs but no code.

Thanks for your help.

Guessing but it sounds like your diagnostic tool charges for use? Did it come with manual?

Hi

The vehicle itself is 'plug and play'

My £20 vs600 OBD is a simple device

You plug into the OBD socket, and are straight into the P#### engine codes

If I use the Laptop..and MultiECUScan software.. then I am reading Airbag and ABS data within a minute


Ive never used bluetooth..as its unreliable for any 'adjustments'..

But this might be how wireless devices operate..?

That I think is a code to use the software - to show you have paid for the licence to use it.

On closer inspection.. that screenshot says AlfaOBD

From memory.. it was more expensive than MES..


Ive just bought a newer licence..as I couldnt connect to my panda twinair

MES was €50 (@42 quid)

I think AlfaObd was 67... not sure if euro or sterling..

I was tempted by Alfa.. as a 2nd system.. but wasnt going to pay more

( the web seemed to list a lot of 'cracked' AlfaOBD)
