The problem lies in the software/reader display not knowing how to decode non-standard messages and in my experience its a bit hit and miss. Nissan Consults understand all of these combinations although they have a couple of models depending on car year too (2, 3 and 3+ I believe) Depending on car, there are non-standard pins connected as well but they provide non standard data, eg ATTESSA codes in GTRs. The basic OBD pin outs are the same, so you don't miss any messages that the software/reader understands. My main reasons for getting one is so I can scan/delete fault codes, run relearning procedures, and check to see if the readings are within spec (for fault finding) I think the Nissan Data Scan app allows this iirc. Sorry if the question is vague, still getting my head around it, and confusing why Nissan would use an OBD-style port with their own protocol :/. Patrol/Navara/Terrano with TB45E or non-CRD ZD30 That are NOT really OBDII, but still original Consult: but being several years old, was wondering if anything's come out (cheap) since that's much cheaper? Perhaps China has knocked off another consult compatible reader, and selling for less?ĮCUTalk USB Cable with OBDII plug ( $105 + post)įor the very few Nissan vehicles with a OBDII plug The other threads mention pricey (imo) adapters/cables/devices etc. I did read somewhere, can't remember where, that a standard reader would work as long as it's CANBUS compatible ? If the pin-out in the port is different to the pins in the reader, could I get an adapter that converts them around so the standard reader can read the ECU? Or do the pins not matter, and it comes down to whether the reader can read the Consult protocol, hence why standard readers don't work ? So was wondering, what are my options? I read some people getting an ECUTalk cable to go from OBD-port > USB, but at $115 + postage for a cable to only support Consult on Nissan seems a bit steep (for me atm). Because of this, my cheap ebay-job Bluetooth OBDII reader doesn't connect. From researching last several days, it's likely using Nissan Consult, but with an OBD port for some reason. Mums car is a late 03' Nissan Pulsar, which has an OBD style port. I had a search on here, but all the similar threads were several years old, and didn't really have the answer I was after, so hope it's ok I made a new thread.
