Mines a 2001 tin top.
Plug under the steering column.
Plugged a reader in, nothing! Just comes up with "Trying to connect"
Have tried it in other similar aged Jimnys (Jimnies?) and the same, nothing.
Works on the Merc and other newer cars in the 'family'.

So does that mean mine and the other Jims are OBDI?
