You may need to speak to Superchips to get them to enable that facility on your handset.

You should be able to read the fault codes with a bluefin on this type of car. Plug the bluefin into the diagnostic port, and at the first prompt, when it says Check ignition off and press Y, press N instead and then turn the ignition on. This will lead you into a menu where the first item should be Diagnostics.
That sorted it can data log with it aswell now  :pomppomp:

What does the hand set data log?  I've got my old handset sat in a drawer collecting dust. Is it of any use then???
