Thanks for your replies.
Sorry to be thick Richard but if it is the multipin socket (a bit like a scart lead) under the middle of the dash near the power socket then yes.
Does the reader not have to be specific to a particular car type/engine or will any one do?
The image link I posted shows the 16 pin socket configuration. Yours should match indicating its compatible with the generic OBDII standard for engine on board diagnostics. The bluetooth dongle with matching app on phone or tablet should work once you have completed the one off pairing.
For Android devices there are many free apps to choose from on PlayStore. They should all be able to display fault codes and in most cases remove them.
ETA: Forgot to mention you may have to select on first use of chosen app, the vehicle make and sometimes model. I think in my case it was just Ford (generic).
