Hi David, There are a number of different cables that should work. I use the ElmScan 5 (at Amazon, it is under US$30). The OBDLink SX (~US$50) is another good choice. The ElmScan 5 uses the ELM327 chipset, which cannot handle a connection to the computer higher than 500kbps, which sometimes causes a small amount of data to be lost. Also, the ELM327 chipset has an issue where it sometimes does not record all the data (if the first byte of data is between 1 and 8, it only includes that number of bytes of data, even if there is more). I believe the OBDLink SX (which uses a different chip that is compatible with the ELM327) doesn't have those issues. If you are planning to do more with the ODB2 port, there are lots of other options (e.g. ones that display data on a screen for you). -Scott On 6/1/2012 3:01 AM, David Peilow wrote:
Hi,
I've just signed up here so it will probably take me a while to get up to speed on the work done so far.
First off, can you advise me on what cable I need to obtain to pull logs (I saw RScott's program link) and also where to buy one?
Thanks,
David
