Speedometer just stopped working
#11
obd2 is usa spec
in Europe its EOBD.
that tool is, in HATAYASIM 19/9, HOLON, ISRAEL, 58237
you need to update your signature with country you are in, or better the cars market,
after all , obd2 is a USA ECU, only, and only works on USA cars, in 1996

i think (i forgot ) your car is E41 car. or E54 (Greek or Israel.) only market matters, where car ended up, zero.

first find your OBD scan port, ours is right knee
then take any obd2 scan tool (in usa all work in 1996 ,every tool made here) and check that the port works using the OBD2 protocol, std tools)
if yes,
then above meter works with ours, and EOBD. (E= European rules)
if the port works with standard tools the meter will work. (mostly)
there is no other why, there are 100s of ecu, world wide and suzuki does not publish compliance lists for them. (sadly)

test the port
then if works, buy meters.
or get a return promise, and lose on shipping. 2 ways.

here are all markets I know

that heads up deal is super nice, very modern.

oops one problem
some scan tools left plugged in , drain the battery.
via pin 16. (on DLC)

if pin 16 is hot 12vdc all times, like on some cars.
the tool must have smart power down mode.
it detects key off, and goes to power saver mode inside the meter.

see if you pin 16 is 12v key off.

scantool.net makes tools that avoid this.
see others talking about this issue here.

the go to sleep when serial data ends.
after a timeout.

what each tool maker does, can different.
in some cases, the meter off switch needs to be pushed, id ask them,.... this question.
