A Rover and Land Rover diagnostic scanner tool!

- 1990s and early 2000's Land Rovers and Rovers are at risk of being scrapped as their computers are too old for OBD diagnostic tools to work, meaning cars could be scrapped for minor problems.
There is a solution now in the shape of the PSCAN diagnostic tool, Ive got one and put together a tool box ready to trouble shoot my Freelander or Rovers

Have had mine for over 5 years. Well worth the money. Just recently used it to program a new key for a MG TF with the Pektron immobiliser.
A business opportunity, " Furious matt rover specialist" for all rover diagnostic needs. Brilliant piece of kit 👌
As a local land rover specialist we have autologic with all the old 2 and 3 pin connections for the older land rover and rover models it’s a life saver some times
I loved the homage to Pulp Fiction with the glow coming from the case as you opened it!!!
Glad it was noticed!
Diagnostic scanners are a god send.
The 90s and naughties were a difficult time working on EFI cars as there was no off the shelf scanner systems.
Hence why you keep hearing the classic line... Older cars are easier to work on... But they are not..i have worked on both
With a good ecu scanner honestly this makes working on these modern vehicles a lot easier than the old school carb cars.
Troubleshooting is a breeze.
VW have a great diagnostic tool called VCDS, never needed to go into a mechanic as this tool has told me everything from
Intermittent wiring issues
Sensor failures
Etc etc
This will make your life so much easier
Unless like myself an IT ignoramus, older vehicles can be diagnosed by experiance and trial and error. It may take an whole weekend or longer, with a rapidly filling swear jar, to solve but a great feeling of satisfaction when done. This is the main reason I wouldn't buy a vehicle manufactured since the end of the '80's but would lease a new one (EV), not my problem if it goes wrong.
No real interest in Rovers of this era but watched the whole thing - my inner nerd was activated 👍
Great video Matt, It was great to see you and your son earlier in town, wanted to chat but respectfully just kept it short
I would have found an ex MG/Rover dealer, there must be dozens in Kent, they'll still have a T4 diagnostic equipment. You can't beat those machines.
Great little bit of kit, my mate and myself are thinking of going halfers on the PScan for my 75 and his MGF.
Great idea, it would be a like saver for the cars if one went wrong
I am that mate 😂 However I'll need to find out if it works on windows 11 first... 😬
now imagine someone at a rover dealer in a burgundy pinny pushing a cart carrying a windows 98 PC to connect to your rover R8 ha
Thats exactly how it went! Like the old VHS trolley at school
An Excellent bit of kit. We may yet see a Rover 827 SLi in the fleet then.
Had a P-Scan for some time now, came in really handy when we needed to access one of our MGFs after the (only) blipper failed. Great bit of kit.
That pscan looks like an excellent piece of kit. I've got a 1994 rover 216 SLI and one of the fobs stopped working over a decade ago. Phoned several auto electricians who were unaware that any rovers were still on the road *rolls eyes*. Even found a mechanic who worked for Rover. He couldn't understand why it wasn't in the scrap yard.
Hopefully with this I can program a spare key (need to find a working fob with chip first).
Great video. Thanks so much for your help :).
3sray1: what happened to your 94 Rover key programming?
What a great thing. The Pi is a truly wonderous pieces of kit. Excellent stuff.
That pscan has already paid for itself...great piece of kit to have around. My old local Rover dealer couldn't work their T4 and wouldn't let me try!
I cannot believe that “ NO “ planning goes into your vids Matt , you make it seem so professional and precise 😁 and I am yet to see you miss an opportunity to plug your tea mug brand in an episode 😂, that takes planning. As I watched first few seconds I thought 💭 gosh is that Samuel L Jackson in a furious driving video 🤔 wow how did Matt manage that on his shoestring budget 😁, but realised it was just wishful thinking 😉, really interesting vid and amazing kit , did you or Samuel put it together 👍🏻.
Sam is an old friend so was happy to help out with this!
This is really great, Matt! You really made it into a real nice package. I think it will be a worthwhile investment. Now I hope to see more of the supported cars on the fleet or as short projects 😃👍🏻
As a fellow PScan user I agree that its a great piece of kit. Its constantly being developed and Phil is a top bloke.
100% !
I'm very tempted to purchase one of these P scans for my MGF, might just use my old laptop with it though.
Fascinating video.
I won't lie much if it is over my head though.
My old Renault has an OBD2 port but is not compatible with an OBD2 scanner. Had to get a guy out with a laptop and the Renault software installed.
Wonderful piece of kit Matt, sorry I let my MGZT go now.............
Very nice, such a compact version! I always thought that those laptops to read out a car were a bit cumbersome. This is so much better! And having it is already a big win, so it's wins allround.
Very good work Matt, very handy little tool you’ve made there 👌🏻
Your are proud of your gadget Matt and so you should be, clever guy well done. How about a video on how you put it together, would love to know how to build one myself 👍👍
Great vid. Been thinking about a Pii for years but, never found a use other than play and ain't enough to justify the outlay. Got old lappys I could use however, that looks so much more fun. Wonder if it would run off a power bank for phones?
Fabulous kit…. Something you mentioned about EGR valve. I always thought the blank fit in between the EGR and it’s inlet port, so the ECU sees it works it open n closed but the blank stops the thing getting bunged up with spent exhaust gas…? 🤔
It didn't seem that long ago, when a timing strobe gun, feeler gauges and colourtune were all you needed.
Very neat Matt. Definitely looks nicer to use than the ancient laptop that was used to run ConZult (for my 300zx).
Amazing piece of kit! This will serve you well. Good investment.
Definitely! üst think how quickly I could have solved Quentin's immobiliser problem last year with this, no changing the ECU and modules
That is a neat use of a rasberry pi they are good for game emulatin as well or a cheap linux based computer good to see one being used as a car scanner very useful .
Oh yes! Sinclair spectrum and Commodore 64 emulator!
Those Rover 200 coupes were cracking looking back in the day and still are now.
This is very interesting. There's this era of cars where engine management systems come in but before OBD2 that struggle with diagnostics. I have the EEC IV on my Ford (Intel inside), and just have a little Gunson flashing code scanner at the mo, it does work, but suprised no-one has brought a similar Ford product to market like P-scan.
Very neat Matt. Sure that will come in handy mate
What a guy Philip is! Terrific video and well done you for creating such a useful tool for your fleet. Is there no end to your skills Matt?
Is there no beginning is the usual question!
Great purchase there, Matt! I can see you using the P-Scan to its full potential on your Rover / Freelander fleet in upcoming episodes... ;)
I personally know the owner of pscan, he’s a very clever and cool guy.
Another great vlog I would love something like that for my 1994 Rover Metro GTA👍
I cant believe that rover never moved towards having OBD2 connectivity until late on, most cars had it from the get go in 1996!
They had no money to invest and it wasnt until an EU thing forced all the makers to get on the same page
It depended of the regulations of the country where they were sold.
USA made it a requirement in 1996 but in New Zealand for example,it was not compulsory until 2006
As a result some companies such as GM deliberately made their cars non compliant (allegedly) so that you had to go to the dealer.
GM exported cars to the USA and Europe before 2006 and these cars would have had to be OBD2 compliant. It is an interesting fact that one can get an ODB2 cable in NZ to fit a GM car and it just required swapping a couple of wires to make it work.
This tool is bloody awesome 👍
May I ask how much it is as I would love one when I buy a classic mini
This makes me wonder if there's anything to scan my early 90s Peugeot single point fuel injection system with...probably not.
I personally would find more fun getting some old laptop and installing Windows XP on it and just using that for all sorts of troubleshooting, and to be really old school I'm planning on setting up a regular old PC system, complete with yellowed white case and CRT monitor.
Think that error on the freelander might be the maf sensor out of spec/disconnected as common fault on the m47r engines .
Ill check that its connected. Its running fine and not using much fuel
That is a really clever device, very handy to have😊.
I must get one. Do you know if it would it work on my dad's Honda engined 1990 XX mk1b 827i Sterling? It hasn't moved for 8 years but we got the engine going, and it would be interesting to find out how many fault codes it may have picked up over its time off the road.
The sign of a true IT person is their IBM Thinkpad.
lol , glad i'm not the only person who spotted that
I would buy or put together a battery pack and use two DC to DC converter boards, one set at 5v for the Pi and on set at 12v for the screen.
the screen provides power to the pi internally, it takes a 12v feed itself
Great bit of Kit, excellent video, I'd like to see what the plug is like to get it to interface with the P6! Best wishes.
up the exhaust pipe?
I have an old Rover Workshop Manual on CD, used to be handy for my 216 bubble for fixing and tuning. I can send it your way if you need it.
I have that CD, but thanks, the Tomcat also came with the dealer workshop manual binders, no idea why as I dont think the last owner did any DIY!
@@furiousdriving It's good to hear you have all the kit 🙂 I loved my 216 bubble, for a first car it was such a laugh, all engine and a body that weighed nothing 🚀
ooh that looks useful , debating whether to buy one now or wait until my FL1 bricks itself , then discovering they've sold out & there is a 2 month backlog ... lol
Just use a launch with obd to diagnose and program. It will do all vehicles including CAN BUS
Immobiliser bypass easy peasy on those
Nice work!
Thanks!
Love things like this so cool I'm at the minute trying to get a tomcat but carnt sell my 159 atm haha if I do I'm doing this
Thanks for posting this. I am surprised how little interest I have had in the Raspberry Pi version. I have been running the 64 bit ARM version on a Pinebook Pro.
No problem, this is the most useful thing a Rover or Land Rover owner could have. I wonder if its just lower volume of devices out there, or people have a windows laptop so dont need a second device? I love the idea of a standalone device and all the cables and accessories in one place ready to go
Hi Philip, it’s john, any plans to use it on android?
@@johnburrows7938 It would be a huge amount of work. I think that my time is better spent on increasing coverage of car ECUs. pscan will work fine on worthless ancient old laptops running Linux or Windows XP. My test rig is a Dell D620.
My 2001 MGF did have obd2 but this is great for more advanced stuff and keys e.t.c 😂
I was thinking the mysterious case from “Ronin”😉😎
I liked good service, I need a scanner like that or a service like that, where can I find one.
Does it scan for rust???
would not be surprised if you can add more diagnostic tools to it :D
Is there not a 'normal' run of the mill OBD 2 scan software available for pii? Maybe you could then have a sort of all round scanner too?
Good question! Ill look into it. I do have a Carly as well so have coverage on the ones Ive downloaded info for
I’m edging on getting a Pscan having a R25 & MGF on my fleet 😁 is a furious driving discount code available Matt? 🤗
Putting an batterybox on the back of it ought to get you the 12 volts and becoming more usable in the field?
yes, just need to locate the correct output type
I am wondering if an old Nokia/Microsoft 'Lumia' phone could be used as the display? Lumias had a ver of the Windows op system on instead of the more desirable Android.
The Lumia phones ran an ARM version of Windows, so it won't work. pscan needs an Intel/AMD version of Windows. It won't work on Windows RT, Windows 10S or the new ARM based Surface Pro X. You can use pscan with an ARM processor only if it has Linux running (Armbian, Pi OS, pine64 etc).
@@philip_christian Ah thank you.
The Error on the reader will be the MAF sensor disconnected. Its actually quite a common thing to do, and I did it on mine. It runs slightly better if the maf sensor is clogged or faulty. It just runs a standard ecu map.
if its not showing a light on the dash don't worry about it
I figured it was something deliberate!
Hi what a interesting I really enjoyed the video thankyou take care
This guy's an extreme car geek 🤓
On the Freelander
When I had the ECU changed and re mapped, the new ECU is out of a much later car, what are equipped with the air intake temperature sensor.
2003 onwards had the sensor, this car been build date 2002 does not have one, hence the code totally normal nothing to worry about, will just sit as a pending code and not trigger EML
I was going to message and ask about this! I thought it might be something you'd disconnected or blanked off, the ECU makes sense
@@furiousdriving yeah it’s just simply the fact it’s not there, but the ECU has it logged as active.
I was going to get it mapped out, since it never flagged an EML was pointless.
Hope your enjoying it cracking car for what it is
Oh, I wish you could run BMW DIS on a RPi!!! Great video Matt, very informative. Have you considered a sealed lead-acid accumulator or even a 12V NiMH pack to run the RPi from independently of the car battery? I know everybody likes Li-ion batteries these days but to me, they're just cylinders filled with fire (see Big Clive videos)... or, in your professional capacity do you use anything like Anton Bauer/PAG/V-Lok batteries? Those would need a pre-regulator though to power the RPi.
Ive not really got a preference, anything that gives the right V and mA works. I have Li-ion specific fire extinguishers for working with drones, those batteries can be nasty!
Itwas amazing
Will this work on the rover 800? Mines a 1999 825 sterling.
What is a good scan tool for Land Rovers 2010-2017?
USA smog and diesel versions. Anyone.
Hello matt quick question can a pscan code a pektron bcu box because I bought a new one for my mg zr that needs codeing don't fancy sending it in the post to get done great video
Should do, head to his website and theres a really good community support forum where people have done or tried most things
@furiousdriving thanks mate 👍 top man keep up the good work I love the rover vi and the tomcat and the touring my favourite cars on your channel 👍
You should get a ds150e clone as well and then you will have the rest of the fleet covered
Will you be able to use on the Mini?
no, thats got proper OBD
Does that P scan work or is there one for older Rovers
back to the R8 series as far as I know and up the the final ones.
This makes me want to go out and buy an old Rover😀
Does anyone know if pscan will work on Windows 11? I've just had to buy a new laptop as my old one gave up the ghost, the pscan site doesn't mention Windows 11 😬
Ohh... I predict an engine management tweak or two on the 25 Vi.. Once it's mechanically sorted anyway :)
There I thought a PScan was something the doctor did!
dont get them confused!
Interesting video 👍👍👍👍👍
Ah, that's what was in that Quentin tarantino film 🤣
Now we know! (thanks for noticing!)
One or two hundred quid spent on the ability to find out your car's innermost thoughts is money well spent.
I have Vida/Dice for my Volvo. The VM installation for it (instead of sweating an original install) is also a few quid well spent.
I wonder if the cause of the spontaneous combustion of a newish Range Rover on the owners drive will ever be discovered, both Land Rover and the insurance company say it is the others job to investigate the cause. If ever diagnosed my money is on an electronic problem.
Various Motorways and the Blackwall tunnel have been shut various times this past week due to car fires, they seem to be occurring more often of late. I wonder how many were electrical or electronic.
Rave I thought u were gangsta rap playa!!🤣🤣🤣
are you able to remap your rovers/land rover with it?
potentially, or break them!
I was very interested in buying pscan, went to the website only to be disappointed that it doesn't support Land Rover Discovery 2 petrol V8's. I am in Canada and was wondering if you know if the creator of Pscan is going to be adding Disco 2 V8's, I just bought a totaled disco without keys and I am trying to get it running before I break it up, so I can test the engine, and wouldn't mind a 2nd ignition and door lock as well but have to first get a key and fob working. Do you happen to have a email for Pscan, all the website has is a forum.
That is fantastic the raspberry pie is one million times better than a old lap top in every way. Would one of them mini jump start packs power it??
I have a topdon volcano 1500 jump starter it came with 2 usb plugs 5v 3a it also has a cigarette lighter socket with it too.
If it had an inverter in it you could plug in the PSU, it has to be a specific 12v and the right amps to make it work and not break it!
@@furiousdriving Hi. Having "too much" amps isnt an issue, so its only voltage you need to be concerned about since I dont think there is a pack these days that cant do 2 ampere (if I heard you correctly). May I suggest a small Li-fe-po or Li-po pack? One made for a small rc car/plane etc should do the trick nicely and wont break the bank and isnt very heavy.
I wouldn't even want to attempt to park your coupe in that garage, need a shoehorn to get it out surely!
for 150 quid ish is not my version of cheep id just get a old laptop for a 10ner and if I jus get a small one it's not much bigger but it's still cool
i dont have the money to buy the pscan , but could do with it i have the 3 pin mems plug in the glovebox and nothing to plug into lol
Yes but it’s in strike atm so only works part time lol 🤔
Your new gadget looks like a Windows device!
Great that you can diagnose the Rover vehicles within your fleet. A shame you cannot programme keys.
Also you can look at your engine specs before heading to an MOT in order to avoid a failure!
All windows GUI OS's go back to Xerox PARC back in the 70s, so there will be visual similarities
@@furiousdriving Interesting, never knew that!
@@frothe42 Its a nerd thing!
Raspberry Pie yum
I have an ELM237 OBD ADAPTER why does not read anything ?😢
A related issue for every car no matter what end of the market are faulty modules, late parents 25 year old 6 cylinder Jeep Grand Cherokee that has been maintained from new with money spent on keeping it reliable four years ago as it is a straight & rust free example but two faults has appeared concerning modules for the ABS & Airbags, this now renders it unroadworthy & will not pass a RWC/MOT.Common sense decision has been made, line drawn.Registration was due Friday & has been allowed to lapse, plates will be surrendered & have made enquiries with the wreckers yard.
Like finding somebody to translate when you can't speak the language. Can the cam phasing be adjusted? Could be fun.
Not sure-Ive not delved fully yet, I guess it depends on the car
Raspberry Pi will run off of most fast charge capable power banks, as it's just a 5v whatever amp supply. Think they even accept 5v through the IO headers?
the Pi will but the screen needs 12v @ 2000mA
@@furiousdriving ok, power delivery power bank with a 12v device board (does the handshake for power delivery, don't know what to call it lol) then either use a buck converter from that for the 5v or have a second usb from a power bank. Means you'd only need one USBC style connection in theory, and could use your Mac charger on it too 😉
How much is that kit
Its £160 for the Pscan then up to you what you run the software on, check scan.uk for details
@@furiousdriving thank you id to take my mg zt to northern ireland no garage can scan them in southern ireland
I'm glad it's not called pee scan 🤣
thats a different thing!
PSCAN had me won at opening the boot, if that function works for a P38 then sign me up,
Bloody inconsiderate neighbour knocked and cracked the boot release switch and never told me, it was only a few weeks later I spotted it 😠 and of course now the boot won’t open 😖
I'm afraid that only the engine ECUs are so far supported on the P38. To improve coverage of the P38 I basically need someone to lend me a car.
Nanocom all the way for a P38.
I might know someone, just messaged him
so. much. nerd. :D will you be buying the pi some chocolates and flowers cos you love it soo much hehe
Me < 🤯
