2003 monte carlo ss... check engine light is on.. and lifters are ticking.. i plug up my scanner.. says no link found.. so im guessing the data link isint working... i checked the cig and aux fuse.. all were good.. still no data link... please helpp

 

Is it an OBD 2 scanner?

 

Have another car to check whether it's the car or the scanner?

 

yes its an odbII and i hooked it up in the gtp it worked... tried it in the mc it says no link

 

Only thing I could think of is checking different fuses?

 

The driver side fuse panel contains a fuse marked CLST/BCM that supplies power to the data link. Have you checked it?

 

nope.. thankx.. didnt even know it was a fuse block over there

 

checked every fuse in the car they all are good

 

most standard scanners for sale to public scan engine codes and extra for abs,,Pcodes,,the genysis scanner is the one to use

 

still having this problem.. what else could it be...
