Professional/DIY OBD2 Scanner Car Fault Code Reader Auto Diagnostic Scanner Tool Engine Tester for UK US European and Asian OBD II/EOBD Protocol Vehicle (Foxwell NT301 )

Comprehensive to use. Read codes 1st time. Reported Adblue error. Reset after topping up. Engine Management light now off and no errors reported. Cheaper than 1 hour (5 mins) at the Ford garage.

Bought this ODB2 reader to investigate why the yellow engine light (MIL) has come on my Honda after a long journey.Having already tried the cheap ODB2 Bluetooth readers off here (complete waste of time) and given that the local dealer wanted £60.00 just to look at it, I thought for the cost I would try this one. Plugged it into the ODB2 port under the dash and it took about 60 seconds to run through all the protocols until it established a link with the cars ECU. Once connected the menu is easy to navigate and it was very straight forward to find the fault codes stored in the cars ECU. Five more minutes on google and I knew it was a engine sensor fault. (The sensor cost £17.00 and was easy to replace!) - There is also a menu option to 'reset' or clear the fault codes from the car once its repaired.Finally there is another menu that will 'talk' to the ECU in real time while the engine is running giving live data about the engine if required. There is also a CD that ships with the unit to update its firmware online, however I never used this as it worked fine first time.

Does the job.Fairly easy to use.Just needs to come with a case.

Why did you choose this product over others?:Great buy ideal fault finder

I originally got this after my wife rang to say the mini r56 had a red warning light come up on the dash. I was at work and panic set in, so after a quick hunt, this was on the way. After looking at the car it was a simple service reminder reset that was required 🙄. However, a month later I did manage to test it out! Fault came up with a fault on cylinder 3, quick check and the top gasket had failed causing the oil to go around the spark plug. Trip down to the auto factors and the car back up and running within a couple of hours. Worked an absolute treat!!

I need to erase the faults on my van it’s simple to use and does the job brilliantly

Very good, easy to work

I had a fault with my XTrail in way of a warning light coming on. I bought the scanner to see if I could identify the fault and fix it myself. This scanner was affordable and appeared to fit my requirements. The scanner arrived in good time and well packed. I put the disc in the PC and found it does not work with windows 10 which was disappointing but after re reading the advert it was mentioned that it wouldn't.An oversight by me; though I am not sure how I will up date the unit in the future!So I read the instructions plugged the unit into the car and it displayed on its screen that the crank sensor was faulty, could not be easier. Found where the sensor was fitted and removed it which was very awkward due to its location. The unit has paid for its self with one use as the garage quote was a lot more than the unit and part put together.
