ok, good news bad news. This solution is cheap. You need a ~$25 part, and 32 bit version of windows. The bad news is that it's a pain in the butt. There are threads on this forum and others describing how to get the software working, but the seem to be rather incomplete. This link is the best one I've found for the software, and for descriptions of how to use it. I am by no means an expert on using the software, so I don't have a lot of advice to offer. I haven't touched it in months and it's the kind of thing that I find I forget how to use very quickly and need to re-learn.

Anyway, here you go, knock yourself out!

If you have an android device we've had great luck with the Launch Easy Diag tool, and it does much more

Otherwise the BavTechnic works well too

Where are you located? Maybe someone local will lend you their scan tool.
