@chevyvette It might not work well or at all with the software, I'm not sure if it's a special cable or not, but it did come from the writer of the software, so I didn't make this one. I have built the one from WinALDL but haven't tried it and have since lost it now that I have TurboLink. I do know the website is done, the author sold the rights and the company that owns it no longer cares about it.
Very nice! I just googled the software, and found it in the forums you referred to.
And now I just ordered a cable. Cant wait to start diagnostics on my 92 F/S Blazer!
I am just wondering. If a sensor in this software displays 0 (zero) does that mean that the sensor are broken, or that the ECU doesnt have a sensor that it should have. Hope you understood that tricky sentence.
@chevyvette It can...some are logic switches controlled by the ECM, others are sensors that are reading or not. Usually a sensor failure also results in the SES light being set, so if that's good, it an intended operation.
@Turbo231 Cause, I have a loose connector somewhere around the air filter box. And I was wondering if that may be the IAT. Then I found out that IATs didn't com until 96. But I guess I just have to wait for my computer to show what I have and what I haven't. Thanks again!
@chevyvette IAT's have been around since the 80's, so you are probably on the right track with that. This computer will for sure help figure that out.
You are thinking another program. This is a program to read OBD 1 data to the car's computer. Your car is OBD2 and much different then cars in the 80's early 90's.
I have my cable now, but I cant get it working with this software. I got it working with WinALDL, but thats all.
Do I have to have the TurboLink cable that came with this program when bought to have this piece of software working?
Thanks again!

Hey great video.
I didn't know there were consumer programs that could read sensors like that.
Pretty Cool.
