    The OBD port on my 2001 appears to have been mangled (the pins I'm guessing) by the last garage to perform a smog check and now my ELM27 OBDII reader fits loosely, wobbles around and is intermittent in connection and function. it seems I need to replace the OBD port on the car and I am...

It reads battery voltage fine, but it doesn't read anything else. I.e. it reads RPMs and speed as zero at all times, and reads the...
