Everything looks good on the obd2 port. I rechecked the correct fuse and it looked fine, but I still changed it. The cigarette lighter was blown so I replaced that, but I only had a 15 or 30 when it needs a 20. I tried it again with the 15 in and it still didn’t work, but the fuse also didn’t blow. I’ll drive around to get more charge on my battery and get the right fuse to try again. Idk if that will fix it though, what do you think I should try?

Every fuse is good and correct, but it still doesn’t work. What could it be?

It started to occasionally work today after trying again. I think slight corrosion in the obd2 port mixed with a lot of accessories and an old alternator makes it iffy. I’ll charge my battery a lot before doing anything now
