Just wondering if use can be made of the 5 pin Bosch Mono motronic diagnostic socket near the petrol vapour canister. For example, are there any fault code readers or interfaces for a PC that would work?

Might for example FORD 5 PIN FAULT CODE READER Car Service Tools Online Car Fault Code Readers Buy Tools CHEAP Online work?

SNAP-ON MT2500-61 SKODA-1A ADAPTOR ALSO FITS MODIS on eBay, also, Diagnostic Tools Equipment, Garage Equipment Tools, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 12-Feb-08 17:43:46 GMT) is the correct adapter for the Favorit diagnostic connector, unfortunately the snap-on diagnostics systems are mega expensive.

The Haynes Fault Code Manual gives procedures for reading fault codes and to clear them using an LED and a jump wire incorporating a switch . ISBN 1 84425 175 6.

The dealer VAG 1552 with an adaptor works with it, so it follows that VAG Com/VCDS will as well with an adaptor.

I'll move this to the Favorit/Felicia section.

I wonder if the adaptor is just a simple wire to wire affair, and if maybe there's a part number with which one could be ordered from a dealers.

Would something like this work?

I managed to get some pictures of a Favorit cable that connects to the 2X2 port above. In therory it should be possible to make your own, though I don't know if the rocker switch attached to it serves another function.
