Help with OBD2, Lexia Cable?

Post by lordalex »

Hello guys,

since 4 days i´m a happy owner of a 206cc, build in 2003.

I repair things i am able to by myself and wanted to read the system errors like i did at my bmw. I have two OBD2 cables, which i used for my bmw.

I found out, that i need the lexia cable? Is this right. I installed the pp2000 software, but i dont know which cable is the right.

Aliexpress listed a huge amount of different cables

Hope you can help me

You need the Lexia interface to do a correct Planet install. Plugging it in before being prompted results in the drivers not installing correctly, and not plugging it in when instructed would prevent the drivers installing.

The interface looks like this one, shown top right in the pic. Use either the long or the short USB cable to interface to the PC.
