The code reader is a very good device with an excellent price. I fix my car and I saved money. The diagnostic for a car is almost 80 dollars in the auto repair shop, with that money I bought my own code reader.

I purchased the Equus 3100 because my "service engine soon" light went on in my 2003 GMC Envoy. I was traveling to Colorado when this happened. I went to a GM dealer and was charged $100.00 for a diagnostic fee. Their code reader said it was the oxygen sensor. I was charged another $126.00 for the part and an additional $39.00 labor added to the $100. The Equus 3100 is less than one diagnostic fee and I could have gotten the part at an auto parts store for $78.00. Easy installation, just unscrew the old oxygen sensor and screw in the new one. This reader works on ALL cars sold in the US since 1996. I use it on all my cars, even if they are under waranty. Just plug it in under the dash, turn on the ignition and it tells you the state of your car. Info can be downloaded to your computer for a printed report and unit is upgradable on the web for free.

This is my first code scanner. It reads OBDII, including CAN format. I've only used it once to date, but it told me everything I needed to know and more. The manual that comes with it is very informative, describing not only the codes themselves, but pending codes and monitors. This little device will tell you about all those things, so not only will you know which codes have popped, but which might pop soon. Far more features that the more common orange-colored brand for the price. Highly recommended.

I've used it twice and it has already paid for itself. I have a car with what I would consider a manufacturers built in money making problem. Periodically the engine light comes on. The dealer says it is because the gas cap is left loose which compromises the emissions system and makes the engine light turn on. I think it is because they charge you 150.00 to turn it back off and with todays gas caps it's nearly impossible to leave one loose. I got tired of this and purchased this tool. I've used it twice to turn off the engine light for the same reason (very small emissions leak). Takes seconds to diagnose the problem and another second to turn the light off. The software provided is very helpful if you want to be prepared when you take the car to have it repaired. Lets you know what to expect. So if you own a Ford product as I do, or any other car this will work on, you can't do better than this tool.
Very simple and complete November 14, 2006

I have the INNOVA 3100 c OBD 2 Scanner and it is the best one I have ever purchased. This unit can be upgraded via the Internet at no extra charge it also shows pending code where most other don't. Great value
