93 - no OBD2 info - can't smog
I'm having an issue with a 97 993 C2 I purchased a few weeks ago. It went through PPI and had all it's codes read, on the drive home (200miles) it died on me and seems to be an electrical issue. I got a dealer to fix and replaced the DME Relay (runs good now). Now it won't give me any ODB2 or DME data when I try to scan it. The shop that got it running provided me the following information:
PWIS FAULT CK-NO COMMUNICATION TO DME-TECH HAD TO PIN-OUT CK DME PWER SUPPLY RELAY-NO 30 POWER TO RELAY-CK 30 POWER FUSE #47-NO POER-TRACE OUT POWER LOSS TO BATTERY-MAIN CONNECTION MOUNTING NUT LOOSE. NOT MAIN WIRRING POWER SUPPLY CABLE-THE LITTLE WIRE TO THE BATTERY,RE-CK SYSTEM-TEST DRIVE OKAY AT THIS TIME.
Any ideas? Im not sure what changed with the car to make the DME go MIA. I know that to get ODB info after disconnecting the battery you need to drive it through some cycles, but DME not available makes me think that something else is wrong. I have a Durametric cable to scan the car.
Thanks!

Thanks for the quick response.. I made sure to have driveblock disabled.. I would unlock and try to scan.. engine starts after the scan as well.
I'm thinking that it might be a loose connection somewhere? but im stumped as to why the car has no issues running. It does have an aftermarket stereo + amps installed, but the car had no issues scanning during the PPI.
:S

I use my scanner with the car running.
Even when I reset the CEL, I do that with the car running, it will first give me a message saying that the engine is running, but I just hit OK and send the reset command.
I have an Actron 9180

I am getting codes from the airbag, ABS etc.. so port is working. I talked to the shop who did the PPI and did a full scan successfully and they think it's something to do with the drivelock\immobilizer - it is the gate to the DME. I just dont know where to start troubleshooting it :S
