Hi all.
I've searched the forum but it didn't answer the following questions:
1. Can I simply use a 3 pin (fiat) type obd 1 to 16 pin type obd 2 converter / adapter cable to connect the 164 to an obd 2 scanner? Will it work or does the motronic 1.7 ecu on my twin spark not support obd 2 scanners?
2. If I can find an obd 1 scanner, will I be able to use it to check live diagnosis / parameters such as engine coolant temp, rpm etc?
3. Where exactly is the 3 pin type obd connector on the 164? Near radio wires? Wire colors pls?
As you may know, my speedometer unit does not function at the moment. We are still unable to diagnose the problem with it, but until it is sorted out, we need an alternative way to keep an eye on engine coolant temp etc.
I've seen obd2 scanners that support this, but I also know that the 164, being a 95 car, doesn't support obd 2 scanners due to its 3 pin type connector, hence the 1st question.
Thank you.
