Have you tried reading codes with the paperclip trick ?

 

[Marty1997vsv6melbourne]

No I have not, Which Terminals do I stick the paperclip into any idea?

Can't do that on a 97 from memory.

Ok if I can't do the paperclip trick any idea what my next step should be?

Bridge 5&6 on the top row of the obd port.

The relay in the module has likely failed can be fixed if you know what you're doing or just replace the module.

It's a VS, of course you can. Can still do it on a VT/VX V6/5L.

Oh I thought 96 on when they changed to the series three computer it was scan tool diag only. Must be mistaken. But the complexity probably renders flash codes useless on the series three any way.

There's no "series 3" VS ECU (or even series 1 or 2. Series 3 5L on the other hand, and even then not all of them were roller blocks). All the VSs used the same ECU like for like for each engine/trans combo, they all use the same ALDL and OBD, there's no extra complexity. There weren't really even any new features in the VT V6/5L ECU outside of the garbage security features they added.
