Hello everyone

 

I've put together a short video showing how to connect the T300 diagnostic tool to the MPI. It is fairly straightforward provided that you have the correct cable. I successfully used it to diagnose that my ECU had died following a voltage surge and also I used it to re-code the ECU to the 5AS immbolisler system.

 

 

Also, in this other video you can see me using the T300 to test the coil (spark) and fuel injectors without the engine running:

Thank you so much for posting this video. After many months of MPI starting troubles, and two garages foxed, I have ordered a T300 in the hope it will give me some insights.

It definetly helped to get my MPI back on the road. But knowing what I know now I think that I would choose the PScan tool instead.
