This Scan tool is designed for all OBDII / EOBD compliant cars. With over 12,000 DTCs (fault codes) found in its data base, it covers all generic OBDII / EOBD codes such as Powertrain (P0,P2 and P34xx), Body (B0), Chassis (C0) and Network (U0) as well as some Manufacturers specific codes (P1,P30xx and U1).
The car owner as well as technicians can use this tool to diagnose the engine problem when the ‘Check Engine Light’ illuminates on the dashboard meter. It retrieves the Error Codes (DTC) and Freeze Frame Data from the vehicle computer (PCM) and displays them on the LCD screen with DTC definitions. The displayed ‘LIVE DATA’ readings are very useful for technicians as it saves time when diagnosing the problem. Besides Vehicle Information (VIN), IM
Readiness Monitor status, it also displays MIL status.
Once you have the diagnostic information from the PCM, this is the first step in finding and fixing the problem.
Please take note of these important points:
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) warns us of a problem or symptom has occurred with a particular engine system, not a specific part.
The vehicle computer can only report Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) based on what its sensors had relayed to it.
There are some instances that sensors appeared to be bad when in actual fact, they are not.
