Stu Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Unplugging sensors would have no impact on being able to read codes or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveB Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 Unplugging sensors would have no impact on being able to read codes or not. I think what he meant there was that he unplugged sensors to simulate a fault as a test to see if the reader picked it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need a reader that supports Ford DCL to be able to read the codes from this car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Stu. I'm using Atmel AT90USB646-AU. I normally get these from Farnell but they've been out of stock for weeks. http://onecall.farnell.com/atmel/at90usb64...tqfp/dp/1748497 As well as the 646 I can also use the 647, 1286, or 1287 but some of these have now been discontinued in the TQFP package so are even more difficult to get. If it goes on much longer I'll redesign with a different processor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Hm I have various USB AVR's indoors but nothing I think will be a pin for pin compatable match i'm afraid. I have an account with the Atmel distributor if you want to buy 48 or so of the AT90USB646-AU? Let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
