I talked with them some more. I'm very lucky to own the last year of OBDI Geo (Toyota) Prizms

. Actron said they didn't and won't get Toyotas' OBDI software so my scanner will never communicate with my Geo

. I know I could paperclip it to get codes but it would have been nice to see more information.

Word to the wise

, check the fine and/or missing information for your scan tool before buying it. It may not communicate with imported OBDI vehicles, only Domestic ones.
