Have you tried the dongle in another car?

This would help narrow down if this is a port issue or a dongle failure.

If it was working fine and then just quit the dongle would probably be the first suspect, particularly if it's an eBay special.

My OBD port had issues when I first got the car (new).

After some warranty work to troubleshoot the rear camera the dealership noticed that it was an issue and rewired the port.

I'd see if that port is pinned well and solidly.
