Hi All:
I'm fairly new to Modis. I'm migrating from OTC Genisys and continue to use factory tools on GM & Chrysler. I have a new customer with a 2004 Acura TL 3.2. He complained to me about a hesitation that happened only once about a week ago. The problem sounded serious, so I figured I'd at least check for codes. I hooked up Modis and entered vehicle information in the scanner setup. No dice - no communication at all with the vehicle. Not knowing if I was doing something wrong, I pulled out Genisys. Same deal. I tried Global OBD II on the Genisys and I got information - no codes stored and a short list of PIDs. It didn't offer much, but no codes and no proveable symptom put the complaint to rest for a minute.
I'm wondering - is this all Modis would be capable of on this car is Global OBD II or maybe not even that? The 10.2 Software application guide lists engine and other systems as being supported but I took that to mean on a level higher than generic OBD II. Am I missing something or expecting too much?
