OBD-II Code Scanner Purchased this code scanner through Amazon.Received promply via US mail service.Very easy to use. Comes with manual that describes the codes.Has the ability to reset the Check engine light.This scanner is a great unit for the price.
Just as good as more expensive scanners I have tried the more expensive scanners, and this one works just as well. The codes are easy to read and it is simple to look them up in the manual which is PROVIDED with the scanner. Save some money and buy this one, no probs mate.
Inexpensive – handled what I bought it for I bought this after my 2004 Ford Mustang had the “service engine soon” light come on. The car hadn’t been driven for a few weeks – and I figured it was likely the cause. The scanner code determined a misfire on cylander 7. I cleared the code – the code and the light haven’t come back. The one time purchase was less than half of what my mechanic charges to “diagnose” the problem. Nothing wrong in this case – just ran rough for a short time after not running the engine for a few weeks.
