Is this the correct forum? I used the engine etc. forum since I assume my problem is in one or some of the engine ancillaries for the engine.


If you do I'm assuming you got it on Amazon. I now have a 2nd one of these scanners (also go by OS601) and the scanner will not recognize either of the two scanners.

I'm either doing something wrong or they are not meant for the Crossfire. One of the Google 'places' said a OBD11 scanner will not work with the XF.

On the other hand Amazon has another less expensive one and it lists virtually manufactures cars which includes Chrysler - unless Crossfires aren't included.
Is this the correct forum?


What is happening is that after I press the arrow at the bottom right it waits a bit then says there is a Communication error and to make sure the scanner is fully mounted. If that doesn't work turn off ignition then back on. In another place on the manual it implies the engine can be running. I just tried that and received the same thing.

IF any of you have one of these scanners and they work great for you, please let me know where I'm going wrong.

ON the other hand if you have another one you got on Amazon and it works fine for your SRT6 (I would imagine it works for all XF Models) please give me the details and name and how much you paid for it (so I can be sure to get the right one.

OR if no one has an Amazon scanner ( I normally get either next day or two day delivery) but if I have to wait a week or so, I guess I have to - but sure need to get this car going as soon as possible.
