CAN OBDII Reader Help
Hi, I purchased an Autel CAN OBDII Reader Model MS-300 to read and clear codes on my 2007 Base. I read on the forum the reader has to be CAN Bus Capable. I plug the unit in and it will scan, then when it gets to the end it say's "Link Error" I followed the instructions to wait 10 seconds then start over. I've done that multiple time and not been able to get past the Link Error.
Do I have the wrong CAN OBDII Reader? If so, which reader should I purchase?
Thanks in advance :-)

No experience with the Autel Can Reader, but the following has worked well on all of my vehicles (Lotus/Porsche/GM/Honda). Wireless (bluetooth communication) and the Torque app on your phone
