Hello,

I have a '96 993 and have used the Actron CP9135 for a couple of years, but now I am getting a Link Error Try Again? message when trying to read codes. No pins seem to be bent, does anyone have any insight to this or experienced the same issues?

Thanks,

Chuck

Immobilizer still on?

my Actron 9180 does the same thing, I have not found a solution.

interesting, I never thought of the immobilizer, I will try that next! Thanks. I wish they never put that smog stuff on our frickin cars, give us the german version...lol

Kika

in my case, definitely not the immobilizer.

Try it with the engine running, mine is working now.

I found that if I removed the batteries in my code reader, it helped to get it to work.

That sometimes happens with some code readers.

Yes, first 'blip' the immobilizer so that the alarm/immobilizer is OFF. (The 'red fob' light - in the clock - should NOT be illuminated!)

Attach the OBD-ii connector to the female socket and establish a connection. You should see it going thru' the various protocols - and 'settling' on ISO-9141-Keyword 2000 and then returning you a 'ready' status.

Then you should be good to go!
