On my 96, I have a CEL and want to see if there are any codes. So I plugged in the OBD2 and started Torque on my phone. It just keeps trying to connect and no matter what it says it cannot communicate with the ECU (or ECM - forgot which terminology it uses).
I actually tried 3 different OBD2 readers - none work on my 80. (All 3 readers do work on my 4Runner however, so I know they function correctly.)
So, what should my next step be as far as troubleshooting? And what does this probably indicate?
I am wondering if my ECU is dead. I hope not, because it looks fairly expensive to replace. (And, would the vehicle even start if it was bad?)
