95 and 96 were screwed up years for gm and ford. they were converting from obd1 stuff, which had various style connectors, and on gm's wouldnt power up a scan tool without a remote 12v soucre, to a style specific to the manufacture. your car may still have the 96 obd2 style connector, but if its a 95 you'll have to use the connector under the hood to communicate with the eec module

The OBDII in our cars are only for the V6.
That is why we have them. They Do Not Work On The 5.0's
