Recommended Scanner Software Program

[historystamp]

I am looking for a recommendation for a Scanner Software to run on a PC for my '93 Corsica 2.2L.

I found a list of software at aldlcable

I've looked at tunerpro rt.

I cannot identify the configuration file to use. I see a lot of high performance cars, but mine is a little less :-; .

I need a recommendation for what application to use & what configuration file to use ( if such a file is needed) .

Car details:
ecm: 16134847
bcc: bczb
platform: LB
engine: LN2
displacement: 2.2
trans: manual

How to use TurnerPro RT as a ScanTool on your GM OBD1 car:

( change : to . to get url address. )

TurnerPro Rt is a great piece of Software: I have started using the software to read the car's diagnostic information.

Here is a quick overview on how to acquire the diagnostic information from your car's computer.

1) Go over to Mr: Toates or Aldl site and buy the appropriate cable:
www:moates:net/
www:aldlcable:com/

build your own; seems to be for PC serial com port:

2) Find your ECM in your car: Mine was to the right of the glove compartment: It's likely to be a silver box: Write down the number: I took a picture of the ECM number on the sticker: I could route the image on my computer to make reading the number easier.

3) Find the various serial numbers used to identify the configuration table for TurnerPro that you need:

Download BCC lookup:xls table from the Internet: It will provide you lots of info on your ECM, in particular the platform and engine type codes used to identify the tables you need:

googling for BCC lookup:xls will find the file:

Also, Moates Hardware Selection Guide:xls

scroll down to Hardware Application Guide: May not be available anymore:

4) Find which ALDL datastream your ECM uses:
