1995 Bonnevillle OBD reading

[johershey]

if anyone could help i have a 1995 bonneville that is obd 1 but has a obd2 plug connector and i tryed hooking up a obd 1 & 2 compliant scanner and it won't read it if anyone know how to read codes i would appreciate it.

What kind of scanner are you using? Does the scanner have OBD 1.5 specific software installed for a 94-95 Bonneville?

[johershey]

it was a Equus Innova 3120 C.A.N. OBD 1 & 2

would you know of any particular one that would work for me

[HotZ28]

I use a Matco Tools 9640B professional enhanced scan tool on the 94-95. It is actually a KAL or Actron built unit. Actron has a similar unit # CP9150 that will work the same as the Matco. Of course, the Tech 11 and Snapon MT2400 with key #7 will work, but are much higher priced.
Click Here and Here for more info on the Actron CP9150.

BTW, The Equus 3120 can perform diagnostic scans for the following OBD I vehicles:

• General Motors: all 1982-1993, and some 1994-1995 models
• Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury: 1983-1995 models with EEC-IV systems (KOEO, KOER, timing check, cylinder balance test, output state test, and wiggle test)
• Toyota/Lexus: 1991-1995
• Chrysler/Dodge/Plymouth: 1984-1995
• Jeep: 1993-1995

I have a 95 Bonneville and I use an Auto Xray codescout 2500 with the mfg. specific cable, (blue). The car has and OBD I module but uses an OBD II connector(transitional).

Maybe a little late but Try the AutoXray AX6000, use the blue manufacture specific cable, says it will read the codes on 94-95 GM with OBD2 plug mated to OBD1 compliant systems. (This unit was under 400$ at Etool box dot com,, if I recall correctly)

[Jrs3800]

Yes the 1994 GM C and H bodies used the OBD2 Connector, and OBD2 codes and was OBD 1 Compliant.... Most Actrons I have used will read the 94-95's without a problem..

[papajohn51]

Yes I found a P0101 for MAF sensor out of range,, but when I tried to read the data stream I received the message: Vehicle not responding.
I am using the AutoXray AX6000 on the 95 VIN K Pontiac Bonneville..
Going to be contacting AutoXray and see what else I need.

Good Luck! You could have purchased an Actron CP9150 for $150.00 and would not have to "be contacting AutoXray and see what else you need"!

Thanks papajojn51, but I offered my advice 6-months ago in post #4. This thread was inactive & should have been closed when you resurrected it on 2/20 - in post #7.
