88 Toy 4wd Diagnostic port won't read
Tried plugging an innova scanner into my toy. I know the Diagnostic port is getting power but it will not let the scanner read. Checked to see if any fuses were bad, but could not find any bad. Any help would be much appreciated.

It's not just malfunction codes. There is actually abit of information available on the data port of these systems. See here, as posted not long ago. There are benefits to using a OBD scanner. Firstly you get all the sensor data with one connection, so you don't need a dozen probes in hard to reach places or a dozen sensor tests. Secondly it's what the computer things, not just the sensor reading which requires a conversion chart or calculator to figure out.
Anyways, I'm betting the tool isn't compatible. You can hook up an analog gauge volt meter and find out, a digital will work but it's not going to catch much of the data I don't recall the datarate.
*EDIT*
Calculator 217$
Iphone 208$
Iphones cheaper yo!

There you go OP, you don't have serial data on that 88 model year.
Thank you sir! I remember reading this before atleast once now, it's plain as day one page 3.
I'm abit forgetful and tend to forget post titles or overlook them completely. It's good form to restate the title in the first sentence or paragraph (Hey wow I really did remember/learn something in english classes).
Again and sincerly thank you. You guys could have saved me some typing and just said "There is no data, use a jumper."..
Those systems being 89 and later.
