I also have a fairly sophisticated OBD2 reader which allows real time data viewing rather than just a fault code display.

I also have a GenRad FDS2000 which was the system used by Ford main dealers until 2000 so basically up to and including the Mk5 Transit.

Does me fine, my newest vehicle is a 1998 Scorpio Cosworth :)

this allows me to reprogram/reset/alter/diagnose the factory settings such as key coding/central locking/timer modules/PATS/wiring looms etc etc.

I'm in Kilmarnock Ayrshire
