Scanners

[dvss1]

You will have to watch out as some of the cheaper scanners don't show live data of the vehicle running. Anything newer than 1996 you will need a OBD2 scanner. This will work on any vechile no matter what make or model.

You would think. But some of the cheap scanners, even for OBDII, clearly state they will not scan a Toyota. Not sure why.

I am going to go ahead and pull the trigger on the one I linked to. Will report back. Since I posted, we added a GM car. Just bought a 2003 Buick Century loaded with 33,000 miles (92 year old lady driver) for my son to transport the twin grandsons. I can't believe it, the little buggers turned one year old already. They are so fun.

Thanks for the suggestions.
