do not use cheap elm 327 obd2 scanners

Just a warning!

I plugged an ELM 327 diagnostics dongle into my car, and forgot to remove it after trying to check the fault codes, which didn't work....

Next day, whilst driving, I smelt burning....

On investigation, the problem was that the ELM 327 had melted in situ. Luckily no other damage was caused as got to it quickly..

Now need to replace to OBDII port..
