 - Saved me the purchase priceI had the Check Engine light come on in my 1997 Honda. I bought this to see why. The O2 sensor reported bad. But I reset the MIL light and it has not come on since. If I took it to a shop, they would have sold me a new O2 sensor and labor $200,00 or so. I'm ahead $150. Rating: - SuccessfulIndicated there was a problem in the emissions system. I added some fuel injector cleaner and 2 days later, the light was out. Rating: - Pretty easy to useI had a cracked air intake hose that caused the "check engine" light to go on, but a couple days after I fixed it. I wasn't sure if that was the reason, and if it was, I didn't want to take it to a dealer just to clear that code. This did the trick. Very easy to use, gave me the code so I could check what it was. Once I found out, I knew it was the cracked hose. Cleared the message using this unit, and it never came back. Had I taken it to a mechanic or dealer, they'd probably have told me it was some other problem and I wouldn't have know if they were telling me the truth or not. Rating: - Good ProductBought this AutoScanner to use on our daughter's Kia. Check engine light kept coming on and it would cost us $40 plus everytime at the mechanic's. Does a great job and is easy to use. Rating: - The solution for pesky BMW Check Engine LightsThis scanner has already paid for itself 5 times over. My BMW loves to display the Check Engine Light for small faults in sensors and a typical trip to the dealer just to check the codes costs over 50 bucks. With this tool and Google, I read my codes, determined it was an emissions problem (faulty vacuum hose), and reset the light. The process is quick, it works just as advertised, and it is a must for any weekend mechanic looking to save some cash at the dealer with code reading. The OBDII port plug is easy to use and foolproof. I haven't even needed the accompanied CD software, as the internet has had all of the answers I've needed so far.
