Is the flashing very rapidly or is it in a sequence i.e. 5 short flashes then a gap to two flashes i.e fault code 52 (if one of these exists).

I had that once before on my mates car, it could have been down to worn out connectors in the diagnositc port or perhaps an earthing issue.

But it has me stumped what could be causing this for you. I just took the wires out and tried to do it again with different wire and then got codes up. How many times did you try it.
