Hi, Is there anyone in the Ipswich (Brisbane) area that has the ability and could do me a huge favour and scan the ECU for the engine fault light code that I have at the moment.

I'll try mitsubishi but I've been told by them that so far the imports the've tried the MUT wont recognise it.

If all else fails it might be time to invest in a cable and software, Evoscan or something that can talk to the ECU, anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks
Phil

Good to hear you got it sorted dude.
I thought there was a way of reading fault codes as the CEL blinks an error code when pin 4 of the OBDII connector is held to ground? Similar to how we do it on the VR4.
Anyway, while we're on the topic. How much does the evoscan package go for and where do yoou get it?
I read somewhere that it has the capability to assist with bleeding the AYC unit, however it not as reliable/accurate as a MUT.. Is this true?
And what is a multi-use tester anyway? A MMC only thing?
I was thinking of getting evoscan because I want to bleed the AYC unit.
Is there a write-up/tech. docs on this procedure?

Here's their website http://www.evoscan.com/ I'm still learning how it all works so I can't really answer your questions. Have a look on the site there is quite abit of info there.

The Evoscan program isnt too bad, but has its bugs.. It will only AYC bleed Evo 5/6 and VR4 legnums. At least, I cant get it too work on later models ?? Hamish Ahern the program developer essentially used his Evo 6 to develop it.. and not appear to test it on later models ! The data logging works fine on later models though.
