When most code readers do not work check cigarette lighter fuse. Just recently bought one and was trying to get a code from a vehicle and was not working it thought I had gotten hold of a bad code reader. Called tech support and they told me to check the cigarette lighter fuse and that was what it was the fuse was blown replaced fuse and code reader started working.
