Title: Cheapo Tech 2 Codes
Post by: JesterRT on 04 October 2007, 12:43:56
Hi all,

I bought a cheapo Tech 2 USB lead from fleabay for about 30 quid and finally put out that airbag light!  Paid for itself on it's first outing too - VX wanted 75 quid plus vat to just 'read' the codes.  It read the codes no problem (70 & 71 if I remember right) and cleared them.  Didn't get too much of the dreaded hungarian language problems either...
... but, the codes weren't recognised.  The software just said 'Unrecognised' on-screen.

Has anyone got a list of codes for the cheapo Tech 2?  Hopefully I won't have to use it too much, but it'd be nice to know what's going on :)

Thanks!

The error codes are reported by the ecu, so no matter which reader you use, the codes will be the same  :y
