The scanner is getting power, as it lights up. When first plugged in, it lights up green then scales back to 2 red lights. It does this on the xr8 as well.

Any ideas? Not sure where to start.

cheers
TIMxr6,

I have AU11 XR8, i have tried other code scanners. Exactly which code scanner did you buy. Hopefully 4 time lucky?

Cheers

Technical Contributor: For members who share their technical expertise. - Issue reason: The experience, information and willingness to help and share data in regards to the ZF cooling system options has probably cleared a lot of doubt about air/oil coolers and the ZF transmission.
