Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Easy to use for even the most non-mechanically inclined. Pleasantly surprised - exactly as advertised.

I6 2wd volvo. Works great for pulling codes.



Cons

No matter how long i keep the scanner plugged into the dlc, it never comes back with any information. Does not work with a ford excursion. It reads the codes <10% of the time, and cannot clear them at all.

Bad and useless. Better off investing in a good one. This one deserves seriously negative attention.

Scanner works on the prius, but not on the truck. F-150 protocol is (sae) j1850 pwm. See garbled text in picture.

Unhappy with this product but happy with amazon's outstanding customers' services. Should have read the numerous reviews describing this as a fake.

On cold mornings, the display goes blank speckled and grey. Lasted for a few times only.

    Any check engine light that comes on you can plug this in and the code reader will let you know what is going on

    If you need a scanner that will read abs codes youre going to have to step up and buy a more expensive unit


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    When a wheel speed sensor failed on one of my vehicles i found a local auto parts store that had a fancier scanner and they were able to read my vehicles abs code and handed me the result for free

    Note that not every auto store out there has a code reader thats any more capable than this one
