5 out of 5 stars Great bang for the buck. Easy to use and reads ABS codes   May 7, 2009

The scanner powers up quickly and overall seems a bit faster than the Actron. It's easy to use; as a guy I've yet to open any kind of manual for the Autel, yet was able to read by my check engine and ABS codes that are popping up on my vehicle. In playing with the Actron the other day I pulled up the screen to read all live data at once and scrolling down was very, very slow and the tool would lag when it was asked to display the next page of data. The Autel 703 scrolled through all the live data without any lag. I haven't exported any data to a PC yet so I can't tell you how well that works. On screen descriptions were provided for both PCM codes and ABS codes.

I have an Actron 9185, which is the same as the 9190 without all the OBD 1 connectors for pre-1996 vehicles. The Actron is a great tool, but I needed to read ABS codes and the Autel was about $50 more than the Actron ABS reader only, and the Autel 703 reads ABS, Airbag, and Tranny codes, so for the extra few bucks I figured it's worth a try, and I can always sell the Actron. I paid about $50 more for the Actron 9185 than I paid for the Autel 703.


The tool is new and there don't appear to be any updates on the manufacturers site. I do expect Actron to have more frequent updates based on other online reviews. The Autel 703 DOES NOT come with the connectors to connect to pre-1996 vehicles though the software supports them. I have not seen the cables for sale anywhere.

As a hard core DIY mechanic that likes to troubleshoot and fix almost everything with my vehicles, I would recommend the Autel 703 because of the number of systems it reads, and at a lower price point than other products.

This scanner did well on abs and air bag functions. It cleared codes on both abs and air bag lights. It scanned obd2 live stream fine. The only thing that I noticed that it has to be set to metric instead of english to be accurate. The conversion isn't correct to english weights and measures. This isn't a deal breaker to me because of the abs and air bag functions. The obd1 function I haven't tried yet, because I haven't got the cables yet. Actron and autoxray cables should work on this scanner. This scanner is for more advanced mechanics because of the extra enhanced codes it gives, especially for abs and air bag. Haven't seen another scanner that can read and clear engine, transmission, air bag, and abs codes for this price, which means turning off those lights on the dash. I compared this scanner to a mac tools scanner and the autel scanner compared well for all that it does.

I have a 2004 Saturn Vue with a V6 engine and all wheel drive, I needed to find out why the ABS light would stay on, I did not feel there was a problem with the ABS system but could not be sure without a lot of physical trouble-shooting. I searched a long time for a scanner at a resonable price to check this out. I was told the Autel MaxiDiag US703 would work for me. 30 seconds after I found the correct code, connected the unit to the 2004 Satun, pressed the test button, no problems were found and the ABS light was reset automatically. At that point the US703 paid for itself.

The product worked as advertised. I was able to diagnos a bad wheel sensor on my escape. i checked the air bad system to see if it could read that system and it found where i unplugged a sensor. very happy with the 703.
