I moved this from News because it fits better here :)

If you are an iATN member, you will find an excellent Powerpoint presentation by Paul Baltusis on vehicle networks and multiplexing here:

You will also find a section on CAN in your PicoScope reference library.

With the scope you can observe the signals to see if they are there and of the proper amplitude etc. You will not be able to get the information they contain without a suitable scanner.
