Maybe a blown fuse?
Maybe a broken wire or bad connection?
Maybe tell us what it is you're driving so we can figure out which fuse it might be, or even if it's OBD2 compliant?
Has the "Maxscaner" ever worked on this vehicle before?
What's your experience with auto-electrics like?

I have a Gen 3 and an code reader, that works perfectly, but when I plug my Bluetooth dongle in, it’s a bit iffy. When I looked at the BT dongle it has rectangular pins which are 90 degrees different to the Autel, so I simply used a pair of pliers to turn the pins through 90 degrees and hey presto, no more iffy connection problems.

Hi
My Jimny is a 2011 SZ3.
I've never used it on this Jimny before, but works fine on my Landrover !!
Thanks

Some scanning tools can be a bit picky about Japanese cars. Your scanner is not a jlr specific one is it?
