OBD2 Scanner

[cjsgarage]

A laptop will alldata wont connect to your car. AllData is just for looking up how to repair stuff.. it does not read out codes nor have any cables.


Any car with a diagnositc port/computer system newer than 95 will work with an OBD II scanner.


Matco has a badass scanner made by Launch that is indeed pretty cheap (300$) and reads OEM codes for lots of makes and models.. Like I said, anything newer than 95.. so 96 and up.

If you're just interested in your LS based car, you should really check out HPTuners. Their software is unbeatable. It works for GM, Ford and Chevy and their scanner version is only 499. It needs a laptop, but does SO MUCH STUFF. Great for diagnosing anything.

if you just need a tool to read codes out and that's it.. the Innova stuff is okay. But it's cheap. Be nice to it or you'll break it.
