Anyone use this before:
http://www.amazon.com/ElmScan-Compac...=pd_sbs_auto_5

Looking for a way to scan and datalog my 98 Blazer pcm.

I have freescan and cable for my 97 Camaro SS but it will not do the Blazer's 4.3l.

Just got mine in.

Does not work on my 98 blazer.

Works on my wife's 05 Caddy.

What settings did you use(baud rate)?

I did use automatic and it said no device found.

I think either the PCM is bad or the wires to it. Will start with wires.
