I just purchased and installed the WIS and EPC/EAC for Saab 1998-2008 on my laptop. The next bit of equipment I would like to source is a tool to communicate with the car, obtain diagnostics and read the error codes. Is there anything out there that will achieve this reliably that is not the Full Tech 2 ($4,000.00 USD).
The TIS2000 software is available out there but does that need the Tech 2 to be useful?
Perhaps software that I can load into my laptop and then hardware to connect the laptop to the car.
I have seen the ODB/ODB2 scan tools, but I am pretty sure these will not work since the 2004 Saab is CANdi interface.
Do any of you perform your own diagnostics? If so ... any suggestions?
