So simple and cost saving!!!!
First I am a woman, a nurse, not a mechanic. My check engine light once again came on-just in time for my cars yearly inspection. The local lube/inspection outfit ran a diagnostic on it, (I flunked the inspection since the check engine light was on) The diagnostic showed code P0171, "running too lean". That was the same code I had received 2 years previously, same car, which ultimately cost me over $400. to be repaired by a local supposedly "reputable honest repair shop". It turned out the $400.+ was to clean injectors and change filters. I was determined this time I could do something about the issue and definitely save some money. So I purchased this wonderful tool, ran the diagnostics, received the same code. I personally changed the air filter-was needed, and added Lucas 10020 Upper Cylinder Lubrication & Injector Cleaner 5.25 oz.to my gas tank-spent less than $20.(not including the cost of this tool). After 2-3 days of driving with the injector cleaner in my tank and changing the filter, I cleared the check engine light with this wonderful tool. Did a full drive cycle (what entails a "drive cycle" is listed in the service manual for your vehicle) returned to the inspection place, and passed. The techs there asked me where I went to repair the issue, (they had nicely recommended an outfit), told them I did it myself! They were impressed, and I was thrilled with being able to take care of this issue myself. Couldn't have done it without this great little tool. Very easy to use and understand. Highly recommend for anyone!
 
Just returned unit...No lighted keypad!
Well to start, this unit seemed well built. Has a little weight to it so I think its built good. I only used it once because it has one poor design issue. "IT DONT LIGHT UP"..no lighted led screen monitor? Like doin a etch a scetch in the old days. lol...All fairness they left it out so you would buy the higher models I guess. Strange part is most of the cheap readers this company makes seem to have lighted displays.
I live in an area were its dark at 5pm in the colder part of the yr. I need light. If you dont have sight issues or if you dont care if you have to hold a flash light while looking at codes then go for it...I returned it and bought the 1403. It does more anyway. If you do get the upper models be prepared to get a RS232 to USB adapter plug for them. Not sure why these are not updated to USB? Hope this helps...most people dont seem to care about the light but it makes such a big difference.
 
Doesn't work with 2001 Nissan Altima
Doesn't work with my 2001 Nissan Altima - it is unable to recognize the computer. Other ODB2 readers work fine on the same vehicle. Buy a different product which isn't so finicky.
 
Awesome scanner and great price!
This is a must have, scanner does the job, tells you exactly what the malfunction is. Easy to use and the price is great. I recommend this product. I'm completely satisfied and have nothing negative to say for the moment. If you're on a budget and need a good scanner? Look no further and buy this one.
 
terrible gimmic
The device is totally worthless. Unless your trying to get out of carbon emissions it is total junk.
You actually get advertising as your trying to do an analysis of your car. It ask you on several
screens do you want to buy this for $15. Do you want to buy this for $10. Yet I was like I paid
$80 for what? I get no diagnostics other then it can read my ID of my car so what theirs a damn
plate next to my windshield I don't need this. So I used the software went to website it was like a form that you can submit that does nothing other then if you plug in the USB cable to device upload it. You don't get anything other then more advertising. This whole device is worthless. I test my mother's SUV . I tried testing my BLAZER. I tried my sisters DODGE. No information. I was like at least tell me what's OK. No, it suppose to give me back information well to get that you says you need to pay $15 to view this in the Digital Display.
