Hi guys.
I couldn't stand taking my car in just to get codes! I found a a pretty good web page (
www.diydiagnostics.com). I ordered one of the scanners and was able to get the trouble code, fix my car, and shut off the engine light with it....BY MYSELF!. It really worked well! Seems like a pretty good price at $54.99 plus about 4 bucks for shipping. Pretty simple tool that works great! It gives you more control over viewing/clearing codes than some others. Plus, it has a nice length cord so that you don't have to spend time with your head underneath your dashboard. It says it Works on 1996 and newer GM, Ford, Chrysler, Nissan, Toyota, Honda, and some others. No computer required. It also comes with a handy code booklet to tell you what the codes mean. Thought you might find it helpful....
Oh, and there used to be an offer that if you mentioned where you heard of the item, you got a $7 discount. It wouldn't hurt to ask about it.
hope this helps.....
