Cheap Obd-ii Readers For Focus Cel Check
#1
Has anyone had any luck with the cheap OBD-II readers found on E-bay?

For example:
Ebay Listing

They seem ok for basic use, but I checked out the OBD-II connector on my focus and it doesn't look exactly standard. But I suppose maybe a standard OBD-II will fit anyway? I checked under the hood and the label states "OBD-II" compliant...

This is basically what the connector looks like on my car, but the pinout is slightly different

I figure if I have to pay someone $50+ to check the error code on my car, I might as well buy a scanner. BTW I have the CEL check engine light on... but no symptoms/issues like power loss or stumbling. I'm hoping it's just a bad gas cap or crummy fuel... but the light came back after a reset, and it won't go out on it's own.
Stock 2000 Ford Focus ZX3, RF Green, 5sp, A/C, 4-Cyl DOHC, etc.
