   bought this for my 02 furio but constantly getting a link error when trying to connect, nothing i have tried works, so it's going back.
   
   could anyone point me to one they know definitely does work, or is it a case of my ECU just being a stubborn bitch?
   
   need to get my MOT booked next week as it runs out on the 19th :@ but need to clear the ecu light (cat) first

   The cheap ones aint really up to much, half the results they give are that generic or vague you are no wiser!

   Someone i work with taped over the mil light and hoped that the mot tester didnt look when the ignition come on he didnt notice that the light didnt come on... He didnt but it could be worth a try and chat shit to him all the way through...

   i wasn't expecting amazing results in all honesty, just want to clear the light.
   
   and also jasper, i dont really want to be messing around taking out the dials to "bodge" it as it were, would rather spend £20 on the morning getting it cleared at a garage

   hello mate
   i know it should be working, but no matter what i try i get nothing "link error" everytime.
   
   emailed the seller who told me to send it back for a full refund, but really all i want is to get my light off and my MOT booked.
