So just purchased the below from eBay to connect to my laptop and Forscan, it works great and no error codes were stored which is a good thing :)

Is there anything else I can use this device for? For example MK2 Focus owners can use Elmconfig to modify ECU settings, is there an equivalent for the MK1 Focus? or any other suggestions?

Its a handy piece of kit to have anyway and worth the £14.

    There is no ELM327 based software available which has the ability to configure the car for the focus MK1. The focus mk1 is much less advanced as the MK2 and MK3 and simply does not have the possibility to configure the settings of modules.
