Okay, you have a facelift model (2004+) if you don't have the round OBD terminal in the engine compartment.
That means you are connecting through the OBDII terminal under the dash on the driver side.
Are you using the HDD installed DIS or the vmware version?
Can't remember but someone had this same problem before. Things to check:
1. Make sure the diagnostic head is recognized by the system.
2. Make sure you have the connector on with a good fit. It can get loose very easily at the OBDII port.
3. Make sure ignition is turned to position 1 or 2.
4. If Number 3 doesn't work try with the engine ON - so yes, start the engine. It does no harm for simple diagnosis connection.
5. If Number 4 worked then you need to get a charger/PS - your battery may be bad or just not giving enough voltage.
I'm thinking if you had a faulty diagnostic head then you probably wouldn't be getting that error, but I could be wrong.
