I've had more luck with ScanTool than with Digimoto.
Make sure the green LED (if your reader has one) is lit up before attempting
to read your codes. I have to just about ram the damn thing into the socket
to get a good connection. Also, I tried it on a friends Grand Prix and it took
about 6 tries before I got a good scan. The ScanTool 1.1 is pretty archaic compared to Digimoto 6.1, but seems far more reliable.
Good luck!
