Arrow OBD and Citroen from 2003 (Diesel)

Hi guys,

I have a couple of issues reading OBD data from my car,
and, well, to start at some point, my car is a;
Citroen C3 1,4HDi (diesel)
Year/Month 2003/07

it does have an OBD plug, and the following pins is populated.
Pin - 1,2,4,5,7,11,12,16

so far, it sounds like it is comfortable,
but....

I have tried to use both a Mongoose, and the Elmscan 5 (both USB versions)
software: Scantool, PCMscan and some other.
Neither of the things I have tried seems to be working.
it won't connect at all.

I know that the EOBD is not a requirement before 2004/01,
so the possibility that my car does not have OBD exists.

but, I have had my car at my authorized Citroen Workshop,
and they can connect there equipment to my car,
so some sort of diagnostics is available.

could it be that they pins in the OBD plug is just placed in a NON-OBD std,
and if it is, would it be possible to measure what pins to use..?

or do anyone have any other clues..?
other Citroen owners maybe, who've had the same problems, but found a solution

thanks for all you help

Best Regards
Sean
