ne worries

Pete the first link I posted says:

Yellow/Brown wire from pin 3 on new OBD socket goes to Yellow/Brown wire from pin 2 of diagnostic box socket under bonnet.

Black wire from pin 4 on new OBD socket goes to earth.

Brown wire from pin 5 on new OBD socket goes to earth.

White wire from pin 7 on new OBD socket goes to White wire from pin 6 of diagnostic box socket under bonnet.

Red wire from pin 16 on new OBD socket goes (eventually) to 10 amp fuse #15

Might be ££££££££ but that's what it says.

Sorry for the late update but I've got it all working.
Pin B36 is no good what so ever as stated on the net you need to connect to pin B5 and with the Volvo reader it all works giving all live data.

who mentioned B36 anyway??

nice one on getting it working. Does it need to be a Volvo reader & what sort of info can you read live? I want to record as many parameters as possible via a obd2 socket so it can be overlayed onto a video

I know Torque is not up to much but...

//edit sorry didn't see your comment about Volvo reader

Maybe that means Torque doesn;t work? Maybe Motronic suite can be used somehow...http://socalsaab.com/suites/suites.htm
