- Autoscanner WorksThis is a no frills device that does exactly what the box says. I was able to pull the code from the car, diagnose the problem ( in this case, replace the thermostat ) and then reset the codes. The repair cost me less than $20. I am not sure how much a automotive shop would have charged but I am willing to bet I came out cheaper. And that was the first time I used the scanner. Rating: - Exactly what you want.Plug it in, turn the ignition to on, and in about 10 seconds you'll be able to see the codes. Press a couple of buttons, the check engine light goes out. Everything should work this simply. Will easily pay for itself with a couple of uses. Rating: - Thank you Actron....I use my 98 Honda accord very lightly to drive to the train station five days a week. Two years before I spent $1200 to take care of check engine light problem and passed the inspection only to get the check engine light back in few days. For this year inspection the repair shop adviced to spend another $1000 to take care of the problem. With this product I reset all the codes, confirmed the light is coming back after about 25 miles of drive by testing twice. So I reset the codes, drive to the inspection station which is about 10 miles and passed the inspection. My repair shop told me the ODB systems were not matured till 2000 and the cars from 96 - 99 probably have lot of false alarms. In my case the car is old and have 150000 miles it has a blue book value of $3500. I dont want to spend thousands of dollars every two years on a car that dont have that much value. The car is running fine, I will not spend money on repair till I have problem driving it. I'm going to use it with normal maintenance untill it lasts. This product saved me $1000 now - which is exactly why I bought this for. Rating: - Very FunctionalThis product does exactly what it says it will do, and at the right price Rating: - Actron OBD II scannerWell made; reads,then displays both number code and translation; erases service engine light; valuable for removing minor sensor defect triggers that could prevent annual state car inspections without significant expense by vehicle owners.
