I was able to get one from A Z for free. I needed to leave a deposit until i brought it back. Hope this helps.

AE is the popular scanner around here. Perhaps if you told us where you were, someone close by who has one might volunteer to help you out.

It's an OBDII plug, but technically it's not OBDII compliant.
It uses Ford codes, not standard OBDII codes.
