You can, but I use it on my Android phone with a bluetooth OBD adapter as it is a lot more convenient.

Hi sorry it took so long have finally got a scanner for FORScan, in the last month it has gotten worse! Starting Monday 12th May it’s been in a permanent limp mode. These are the codes I’m getting. I was also getting a MAF error but since investigating I noticed a loose connector under the battery and since I re connected that the MAF error has gone but still in Limp Mode. Any Help Greatly Appreciated.

Looks like the neutral position sensor connector is also loose.  That is on the gearbox roughly under the battery as well.

Is that definitely Forscan?  Have they changed the UI recently?

Assuming that your car is a Manual Gearbox one, the Neutral Position Sensor will be on the Gearbox near where the Cables that shift the Gears connect to the Gearbox.

Most likely to be a faulty Switch or Wiring or misalignment.

It is a manual yeah would my car have to be on a ramp for me to access them? 

Where is the Neutral Position Switch Located? Any videos or pictures please

Underneath the battery?

Hi Guys think I found the issue but I have no idea how to release the pins from the connector any ideas?

Need to slide a very thin tool in to release tiny tabs on the pins.  There are specific pin removal tools for this purpose.
