    My advice is to follow the advice given in post 5 of this thread

     

    Once you have the software installed and working, have a look for any diagnostic trouble codes stored and report back.

    For what you are doing you do NOT need a licence, it is mainly for programming keys and some other functions.

    I purchased my ELM327 USB lead here

    https://tunnelrat-electronics.fwscart.com/USB_Auto_Switch_Modified_ELM327/p4541936_19965062.aspx

    and it comes highly recommended by many members.

    The software is fine and there are lots of forum members here who are expert with it and will readily help.

    There are youtube Forscan videos for new starters.
