Hi guys I'm using my sp code reader on an mpi with the correct v3 pod, when the car is running I get a data communication error screen and it will just stay on that screen, if car is not running it will be fine and I can scroll the data, now I believe it's throwing an error message as soon as I start the car for a fuel purge valve as I clear it but once I start it again the data communication error comes up and once I switch off the car and re boot the error code is back on
