Hi guys

Just wondering is there anything out there that I can use to read fault codes and to clear them. Obviously I can't use obd readerand need something like a mut-ll . I have a 2001 kj verada. Any suggestions would be great and muchly appreciated.

Regards

Use a MUT II or a piece of wire.

Clearing them is simply a matter of disconnecting the battery (or unplugging the ECU) in the absence of specific support. I've never had a CEL in my car so can't tell you if Evoscan and an OpenPort cable would do this on a Magna.

You can ground pin 1 in the diagnostic port (I think? someone can clarify this) and the CEL will flash to indicate a fault code (long flash represents 10, quick flash indicates 1, constant flashing indicates no codes I think) so 25 would be ___ ___ _ _ _ _ _

Disconnect the battery for a couple of minutes to reset the codes.

Evoscan can display and clear fault codes. But, you need the cable, the software and (preferably) a laptop. If its a reoccurring fault its probably best to take it somewhere for a check over. OR, you use the workshop manual and follow through al of the diagnostic procedures... once you've confirmed the actual fault code.
