Title: OBD2 cable wanted
Post by edd_scorp on May 2^nd, 2009, 12:46pm

Hi.
Hope someone can help me here.Does anyone have a spare OBD2 cable for sale for 2.9V cosworth scorpio.I have emailed Alex but to no avail.Think he might have suffered a similar fate as others in the american car market.A PWN would be more than ok.A combi PWN/ISO even better but not fussed.Hope to hear from someone out there who just has a spare one or just ugraded.
Thanks :)

Alex does take some time ocasionaly to respond to e-mails. I would place an order with your credit car and if it's not there in a week or two then mention it to your credit card company,

this would be a better site (http://www.talktomycar.co.uk/index.htm) for you. on your site, i don't like it when they won't tell you a price!

hi there

that would do it. only thing is the price.

for a few pounds more (or less if you go for a more basic one), you can get a hand held one. that way you don't need to carry a laptop about.

mind, these readers a bit complicated. dead easy to get a code read of them, but harder to figure out what it's trying to tell you.

as a first time buyer/user, i'd not spend more than about £40 on one.

i got a dearer one as i've used them for a while now (no expert, though), so have an idea what i'm doing.

i also have access to a £2.5k snap on one. :)

;D Yea woops sorry I gues I should have said before I do auto electrics at mates garage . . .
He has a snap on ethos to play with but to me they are a pain flicking back and forth with the screens and hand shake is a pain on most of the cars
I have learnt so much over the years and done so many faults I seen one chap with a laptop and OBD11 software in was a joy to use and on so easy

Hi

Did you find the OBD cable you wanted? If not, I have one that originally came from Alex in the US.
It's only been used a couple of times, and could be yours for £15 + postage.

Regards

Mike

Hi Mike32

I could use a OBD cable :-)
My Scorpio can't get through the exhaust emission limit for O2 and CO in Norway. I'm planning to do some serious research on the sensors :)

Can I buy yours?
