I USE THE SCAN TOOL FROM WWW.OBD-2.COM IT RESETS BOTH SERVICE AND CHECK ENG LIGHTS.

Does this tool of yours report the fault codes aswell.
I live in Sydney Australia, I bought a Dyno-scan tool from Auterra, for my Australian delivered 850R, but the tool did not work. The guys from Auterra told me that my car may not be OBDII compliant.
Do you know of anyone anywere that has used the Auterra tool on their 850 with success.
Do you know of any tools that I can buy that will work on my 850R, that is read the fault codes, reset the fault codes and reset the service light and fault light.
I would prefer a tool that I can use with a laptop or palm handheld, but at the end of the day, any tool that will work will do.

Regards Rob

The 1996 model requires that you have a scan tool or reset tool. Unlike the earlier year models, you cannot use the built-in diagnostic port. Do a search for scan tools here and on Volvospeed. You'll get lots of opinions.
