Car's Service Engine light came on today so I pulled out my scanner http://www.autoenginuity.com/products-scantoolppc.html( Version 4.2 ) Old yes but still works and hooked it into the car. Turned the key to the ON position and pressed the scan...
Scanner asked me to ensure that the ign was to the "on" position, which it was so I tried it again. Still same thing. Scanner works, I did the same w/ my o4 A6 S-Line and no issues at all. I know it will read it, as I've dont it before in the past with no issues.
I called O'Reilly's and asked if they had a scanner to use which they did so off I went. Got there, plugged in the Auto X-Ray http://www.autoxray.com/product_detail.php?pid=126 Code Scout 25oox turned the key to the "on" position and it said the same thing as my scanner - please ensure that the key is in the "on" position W T F ...
There is no drive-ability issues w/ the car, no shuddering, plenty of oil, so I pulled the battery to re-set the SES. Re-started the car, took it around the block and nothing... no SES so I figured that I'd check to see if the scanner worked and no... Still asking me to put the key to the "on" position.
So, thoughts and ideas at this point are requested as Im kinda at a loss w/o the manual to chase down voltage being that is what it sounds like I have "not" going on here.
Thanks -
