That would be my guess as well. In order to power up the OFT (or any device with OBD2 plug connectivity, only the 12v power and GND pin needs to make contact. But in order to actually communication with the ECU, the CAN high and CAN low pins need to make contact as well. My guess is that one of these pins is either pushed out of the plug, bend or perhaps the female contact is rounded out. A quick visual inspection should determine things.
