 Best bang for the buck February 28, 2008
10 out of 10 found this review helpful
This scanner has amazing abilities considering the price. It has communicated with all OBD2 and Can Bus vehicles I have tried it on. I work at a dealership and use this scanner frequently. It is super fast at retrieving and clearing dtc's which is important when you work in the industry. It provides freeze frame for all codes that support freeze frame. It has many pids to display on the live data function, and the live data is relatively fast. I use this for everything from reading and clearing dtc's to making sure the ect pid stays steady when bleeding a cooling system to prevent overheating. My coworkers often ask to borrow it from me because it is so quick and easy to use compared with the factory scan tool we have. I have owned it for almost a year and have not had any issues with it.
Equus 3130 OBDII Code Reader and Scanner February 9, 2008

I am a DIY person and have done most maintenance and repairs on my vehicles for over 30 years. I had gotten tired of being charged $30-40 per event for reading and clearing Misc codes from my newer vehicles. Sometimes to have the shop tell me it was nothing but a temp misfire, fuel pressure fluxuation, etc... I read product reviews by others on this site and made my purchase. It is exactly what I had in mind and I should have it paid for in 3-4 events. I think the basic code reader could suit most people and give you some peace of mind and opportunities to avoid some shop OH costs. But I paid a little more for the ability to see real time data, to keep an eye on suspect O2 sensors etc...Anyone that knows a little about vehicles can benefit from this tool and there is plenty of educational info on the internet to bring you up to speed. This tool is very easy to use.

This scanner is very good. Display live data very well with my Dodge Caravan 1997. I could see RPM, Load, MAP, temperatures and more while driving.
Excellent Diagnostic Device February 8, 2008

I plugged this scanner into my Suburban to help me understand why the "check engine" light was on and in seconds it told me that the EGR valve circuit was giving a fault indication. I followed the procedure in the service manual and quickly determined it to be a bad EGR valve. Replacement took minutes. Entire job was over and done with in about 30 minutes counting the time it took to drive to the autoparts store and return. What a timesaver and in the longerun a hughe money saver too!!
Best Reader for your $ November 30, 2006

For less than $200 you get a reader with a large backlit screen and one that can also give a live data feed from your car's sensors. It also supports CAN (controller area network) which by 2008 will be a new standard, a standard that Ford and foreign auto makers have already adopted. Did I mention it also comes with a serial cord to connect to your PC? This is a very fun DIY toy you'll enjoy for years.
