Precisely the trouble I had this AM with a check engine light on my Smart. I kept getting a Link Error display. Drove it to dealership for a P0410 code fault fix. PITA.

Did a quick Google search; found a post that referenced the CAN version of OBD II, which I believe is what's on the 08 smart. Is this code reader compatible with the CAN version of OBD II?

The OBD reader MUST be compatible With the CAN system used on all 2008 cars. Earlier models will not link up with your car
