Be very careful: Your pajero probably doesn't support OBDII. I've got a proper diagnostic cable and software that can read MUT-II/III and OBDII and it only works when using MUT-II. Only the American Gen 3's supported OBDII IIRC.
Hi Pierre.
Where did you source the MUT II scan tool cable and software?

I have been looking for a while and can't seem to find anything that works except the genuine mitsusbishi tool on eBay for an exorbitant price... All the commercial advertised Bluetooth dongles don't seem to support the mitsusbishi protocol.

Thanks in advance. Nick

Re: 3.2 Di-D Diagnostic DIY - without scan tool
Hi guys. I have read my error codes previously with this method. However, when I tried it last time, I accidently connected the wire to the wrong pin. At the time, all that seemed to happen was that the fuse for the central locking blew. Today, my check engine light came on and I wanted to read the codes again. Nothing happens...not a darn thing.
No flashing of any lights at all.
Is there a fuse for the diagnostic port? Or have I fried the diagnostic system? When I accidently fried the fuse for the central locking, I could read the codes without any problems directly after I replaced the fuse. And yes, I have checked all the fuses I can find. Both the fuses below the steeringwheel, and those in the enginebay are all good.
Any ideas?
By the way, my car is a 2001 Pajero wagon with the 3.5 gdi and an auto gearbox.
All help appreciated...
Dennis

Good night, from Brazil, could you tell me which of the 16 pins I should land?

I know this is an old thread, but it comes up when I search for fault codes.

I know that all the literature says to earth #1 pin to get the fault codes to blink, but I have a 2006 SWB 3.2 Diesel and there isn't even a wire to that pin on mine. I tried shorting the #8 pin and it worked.

Not sure why mines like this? But if anyone else is having issues getting it to work, yours too could be like mine.

Hi All,

I joined the forum about a week ago. I have been reading the forums for a few months now and have found plenty useful information from all the various posts, so thanks to everyone for sharing.

Most of you may already know the following, but just going to share it anyway, as it took me damn long to figure this out.
The code readers, ELM327 and so, only work on the 2004 models onwards in SA. The US made it mandatory to have all vehicles read OBD2 as of 1996. Before this the Mutt II was the only one connecting to the Pajero 3 and older.

I also have a 2001 3200 Did SWB giving me some hassles. ELM327 and all software options I downloaded just never worked.

The other alternative is to manually connect pin 1 to ground - i used pin 4 of the same connector - and it worked. I made off a short wire which I soldered on both ends to stick it in as a pin would into the connector. You need to make sure you push it into the slot where the pin would have gone in. I missed it on the first attempt as the connector is hard to view from where it is mounted.

I did this with the ignition off (key out). When i was sure pin 1 and 4 were 'shorted' i turned on the ignition (just so far as to get power to the car and not start it) and watched the lights on the dash.

In my case these error codes - my Park warning light flashed - my ABS light flashed - my Diff lock light flashed - each one giving me the codes. First the long flash, followed by short flashes, then a longer pause between codes. This was confusing at first, but its easy ... just know that the long flashes are units of 10s and short flashes are 1-9 ... (eg 54 = - - - - - . . . .) there are also no single number codes or any numbers like 10, 20, 30, 40 etc. ... check the table first to see what they use for the codes, it is sorted into sections so it will make more sense when you read the flashes.

BTW - my engine light was flashing at a fast pace (about 0.5 sec intervals) this means that there are no error codes present for that section. So ultimately all 4 the sections of lights should flash fast for representing no error codes at all of a 100% working vehicle.

Hope this helps
