Unless you have some device that can scan the car, you can't really test the ports functions.

A cheap way to do this is to use a small Bluetooth or Wi-Fi ODB adapter and an app on your smart phone. BT for 'droid, Wi-Fi for iOS. I have the INPA/PASoft etc. laptop but I keep a small BT adapter in the glove box for emergencies away from home.

no i tried it on the round one under the hood and didnt get connection .. the one i have come in a cd software and i have to install it myself i bought it on ebay like 4 or 5 yrs ago and never got it to work.. but it has all the software that bmw has on my laptop it say its called romania diagnostic lunch pad.. and i trired it yesterday after i hooked up the pin and when i click on INPA i get no power to battery or ignition they both say off
