02 engine check light on - format
2002 Matiz. Tried to read output of diagnostic socket but pin outs conflict with those given . Bought a hand held U480 memoscan OBD2/CAN tester , it powers up ok then fails reporting linking error. The pin outs again conflict presumably. How can I get the flash codes without going into meltdown and what is bugging the tester.

It's pretty normal for those e-bay code-readers to fail to communicate or produce unfathomable codes. It's data-flow is too fast for the pedestrian OBD-II and it's not CAN.

There are no flash codes on one this late. Only a specialist scanner will communicate.
