Hi thanks for the really informative reply. I was worried that due to getting a no connection all the time with my generic obd cartridge that I had a faulty scanner or lead. Yesterday a friend of mine was having a problem with his 1999 vw polo so i plugged my scanner in with the DL-16 lead and generic obd/eobd cartridge and as usual it asked for the s7 key and with the ignition on it gave me the typical no connection message. . Luckily I had a vw cartridge so i put that in and using the same DL16 lead and s7 key it connected straight away and gave me the fault codes. I believe that my cartridge itself is either faulty or fake. The fact that it is a grey catridge also worries me.
Do you know if snap on will replace it for free? or ill but a good one off of ebay.
Thanks for all the help
