ANCELAD310 Classic Enhanced Universal OBD II Scanner Car Engine Fault Code Reader CAN Diagnostic Scan Tool, Read and Clear Error Codes for 1996 or Newer OBD2 Protocol Vehicle (Black)

This is by far one of the best low priced scanners that I have ever used.It's simple, fast and easy to diagnose problems that are keeping you from reaching the ready for testing state.After scrolling thru the readings, mine had no CEL's, it showed the O2 not completed.I then scrolled to the chart screen in live data, scrolled down to the bank 1 sensor 1 and was pleased to see real time data such as a scope shows, everything was fine. Next up bank 1 sensor 2, the first look everything was fine. Back to sensor 1 everything was fine. Sensor 2 on the second look it was flatlined. Again cycled and on the third look, the signal was degraded and fluctuating.Bingo, an intermittent issue.I had already ordered the replacements so they were on hand. Once I had verification from this scan tool I replaced them. You always want to replace the entire bank, even though only one shows faulty, the others will soon follow.With this tool it took less than 10 minutes to resolve my trouble.Thank you for a great product.Don

This is an inexpensive, basic scanner. If one tries, one can spend hundreds of dollars for a scanner with more bells and whistles. (As an example, I just returned a different IOT scanner that wanted unrestricted access to my WiFi router.) This scanner does not ask for my personal info. It does not need A WiFi connection, and does not send/receive email.Also, it draws power from the OBD-2 socket. It does not need to be charged overnight. It comes with a very nice user guide that explains how all the screens work. The display is in black and white, but has good resolution and offers several real-time graphing functions. The menu and set-up screens are intuitive. Once I got started, I had no problem navigating through the displays. I was able to view all the data I wanted to see, and was able to reset all of the codes that were causing lit trouble lights on the dashboard. In short, this scanner does the job and even offers some additional features that make it easier to use. This scanner is a keeper.

My car was having some engine issues, the light was on, and in order to pass my emissions test and renew my registration I needed to fix the problem.This tool helped me to diagnose the issue, after looking under the hood and using the error codes to guide me it was incredibly obvious and I decided to fix it myself. One of the air intake hoses from the filter to the engine had degraded and was split completely in half, and fortunately it was a readily available part and easy for a novice to replace.It wasn't obvious at a glance, and this tool led me in the right direction.For complete amateurs like myself, be aware that after making a repair you should clear the error codes. You'll then need to drive 60-100 miles to ensure that the repair worked and for the car's computer to register as ready for inspection.Long story short, this tool saved me a lot of time, a LOT of money, effort, and not only helped me solve a serious problem but kept me out of trouble with my registration.Manual is clear and easy to follow and the device is simple enough to use.

I have not used it as yet, however it seems like it will be a good addition to my tool box. Upon trying to read the manual I found the print to be so small I could hardly read it with my readers It will take some trial and error learning to get it functioning properly.

I’m a 68 year old woman. I bough this in hopes that somehow I’d get a clue as to what was wrong with my Kings Ranch Expedition. It said I had a large air leak in the gas tank or fueling neck. I looked under there and there it was, the other people had used duct tape and that dryer, aluminum tape to hold it together until a sucker came along (me) and bought it. But now I have a direction to tell a mechanic. So if I can use it successfully, anyone and everyone can use it. The best purchase I ever made!

This scanner works great for those who really need only the most basic information. This scanner is not compatible with a variety of cars when it some to emissions testing and the like. I tried it on a 2001 Dodge and the functionality was not there compared to some other OBD scanners. I however had to pay $80 for a TopDon scanner than gave me what I needed. When you compare the price of this scanner to my TopDon, I actually feel this one is still worth it for some people. Could be useful maybe if you're doing quick scans when buying a used car or something.

This item saved me thousands of dollars! I was charged over $3000 by the shop to fix something that didn’t end up solving the problem….it’s something that has been going on for almost a year!!..using this meter and ChatGPT, I ordered parts myself for $675 and fixed the problem in under 2 hours. A cheap little meter that does everything that it claims. Reads and clears codes. Perfect little meter that I will keep in my truck. Highly recommended

This will be the best $25 you'll ever spend- it's the cheapest insurance against momentary blips that will cause a check engine light. I have a newer Volvo that threw a CEL while on a trip in very hilly terrain. Getting a quote from a Volvo dealer, I was looking at $250 for diagnostics alone! I ordered this and plugged it in, and it was an small detected leak in the evap system- nothing that would affect the performance, but enough to throw up a CEL. I cleared the error, and it's been 3 weeks and it has never come back.I would recommend this to ANYONE that has a car. Simple as that.
