Code Scout OBD-II Code Readers
A “check engine” light doesn't mean you're at the mercy of the dealership.
We've all made a trip to the repair shop after seeing the mysterious "Check Engine" light glowing on our dashboards. Take the mystery out of the process with the Code Scout. All 1996 and newer cars use a common set of computer codes called OBD-II, which is used by mechanics to diagnose what's wrong with your car. With user-friendly OBD-II readers from Code Scout, you can retrieve codes quickly, learn what they mean, and clear them (and the check engine light) without making an expensive trip to the dealer. For example, if you accidentally leave your gas cap loose, you can reset the "check engine" light yourself, and skip the trip. Or, if a more serious problem occurs, you'll be armed with the trouble codes and what they mean--before you head for the shop. You can even check your car's emissions inspection readiness. The Code Scout 700 includes a trilingual CD with over 5000 codes and explanations. The Code Scout 1500 comes with the information built-in and lets you see the explanation on an easy-to-read screen. Both operate on 4 AAA batteries (included).
