OBD2 computer monitoring
Going out on a limb here.
Not sure if this is possible, but what i would like to do is somehow use a laptop to monitor/record diagnostics via the obd2 port, similar to what the ecudatascan does etc. Is there software that can do this? i do see that OBD2 to USB/Serial cables are available. Any input would be great. |

i've used this free software (downloaded off the internet) a while ago with a odb2 to usb cable and it worked a treat. Forgot the name of it but i found the software thru p-wrx so just do a search
