kalv 0 Posted November 17, 2006 Is it in the same place like on a manual - by the gear gaiter? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 24v 0 Posted November 17, 2006 Would have thought so. Just pull the cover off mate, it may need a little gentle persuasion but its not too difficult. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kalv 0 Posted November 17, 2006 I'll get the torch out later and have a screw-driver handy just incase! Merci Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted November 17, 2006 Yep by the gaitor. Lift the cover up from the back but ensure you slide the gear indicator strip back in on each side when you put it back and check that it slides smoothly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kalv 0 Posted November 20, 2006 checked and got an OBDII port - banged in my reader (OBDII portable unit - £30 from germany) and it read everything (engine/AT) but gave error message on ABS - couldn't read it... Do you reckon this could be due to the fact the car is OBDI (but has later OBDII port) and my reader is only designed for OBDII cars..? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 24v 0 Posted November 20, 2006 Arent most of the newer models OBDII ports anyway? What do you mean by you couldnt read it mate? Take a screen shot when you do the reading and post it on here to see if it can be deciphered. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kalv 0 Posted November 21, 2006 Sorry, the DTC reader just displayed an "Error" message when I selected "Read ABS". The notes say: switch ignition off, remove reader and insert again and turn ignition on. Tried this and still get an "Error" message - it's as if it can't communicate with it.. which is why I asked can an OBDII reader talk to an OBDI ECU through an ODBII port on my late VR6?
