Hi Folks,
Long time since I frequented this board - my MR2 went off to pastures new s:( :( s:(
We have a Nissan Cube at the moment - JDM, imported this year. Sadly, it threw it's first CEL - and my OBD-II reader didn't work as it uses JOBD. Having searched around online, I found a Nissan 350Z forum where someone recommended a cheap reader that worked. I bought one on eBay from a Hong Kong seller, it took a week to arrive and read the code on the Cube. It has a drop down for manufacturers and Toyota is listed, so I thought I'd mention it here in case reading MR-S CELs was still an issue.
eBay item: 380503945578
Hope that it helps someone.
Cheers,
Stu
Just taken delivery of the Obdmate OM500 reader and I can confirm it is compatible with the Import MRS.
Paid £40.00 from a UK supplier via EBay although it can be had a little cheaper from abroad with the risk of import duties.
I know the paperclip method is free but at this low price I think its worth the investment for ease of use.
