OBD on 2000 Mitsubishi NM Pajero/Montero

G'Day

Has anyone successfully talked to a 2000 Mitsubishi Pajero?

I've built an ELM 323 ISO adaptor, but can't get a response from the car.

From what I've seen, it should be ISO, but I'm having no luck.

I have double and triple checked my circuit, changed components, etc. I can talk to the ELM chip OK. The local auto trans guy has a SnapOn Tools scantool that talks to the car OK, but I'm trying to avoid spending $2000 for one of those

He doesn't have any info that can help.

Regards,

Paul.

does the ELM light up when plugged into the OBD port?

I can try it on mine later on...

Yep, the ELM blinks out RS232 leds and only the CAR TX led. (and power led)

The connector has wires on both pins 4 and 5. I can't recall which one I've connected to, but I'm pretty sure they were both ground when I buzzed out the plug. Must sneak a look in the morning. Anything's worth trying.
