hi there
 
you'd be better of buying the the lead from alex pepper obd-2.com.
most of use these one and the VE software. the reason being if you find an error code or something, you can post the scan and we can all look at it (using VE software), and hopefully find an answer.
 
btw, they cost about the same.

Looks very much like one I bought once from Genden Scantools - it never worked, even after trying it with two different pieces of software.

Hi Stafford,
 
you guessed it - Thanksgiving. I think they've been shut for 2 weeks  Undecided
 
Should be back next week. Shouldn't be a problem placing order. It'll take 2-3 weeks to arrive (but maybe longer as it Xmas  Sad )

Hello there
recently went through the "getting set up for obd" myself.
started @ page listed on siter for alex pepper kit.
US site indicated UK dealer Gendan - on whose site I saw AutoEnginuity 4 odb lead & s/ware. I got USB lead so no need to use adapters but recomended OS = 2000 or XP.
Just starting to try it have retreived obd codes but little else - going to activate Ford enhancement pack soon.
Still work in progress so cannot recommend yet - Mac user so having to learn XP as well
Hope this helps
