Scanning 4thgens?!!

Hi!
Does anyone know how to scan a 4thgen 3.4L v6 firebird?
Its a 95' model , with 12-pin aldl port.

I have a aldl cable ( auto-xray ), but no software that knows the 4thgen.
diacom just works with 3rdgens and lt1, i think.

is there any program which contains data for 4thgen v6 with aldl??

greets & thanks in advance
alex

I have the Auto-Xray reader and you need a special cable. '95s had OBD2 ports but OBD1 computers. Or you take your OBD1 cable and connect it to the other port with jumper wires to the correct terminals. You just need the serial signal and a ground to read the codes.

that 95' has definetly a 12pin obd1 port like my 88' T/A.
my cable is auto-x-ray, as I said, but the cable/com1 pc connector is custom built by a friend. works very nice with 3rdgens....

It's my understanding that the 95's will have either the 12 or 16 pin ALDL connector. Probably a mid year switch thing.
