MOTOPOWER MP69033 Car OBD2 Scanner Code Reader Engine Fault Scanner CAN Diagnostic Scan Tool for All OBD II Protocol Cars Since 1996, Yellow

Just what I needed to be sure of what I was asking my mechanic to do. Told him the code and he went from there. Easy to use, affordable and efficient. Big screen is easy to read. Great product.

It's probably the most inexpensive OBDC readers you can get. I used it for reading and clearing a check engine light issue on my 2014 Mercedes GLK 250. It worked like a charm. The vehicle info worked fine. Many of the real-time data that the reader is supposedly capable of handling displayed the result "na". I can't tell you if that's the readers issue or something related to my vehicle/manufacturer. I' would guess that if you really need some advanced diagnostic features you'll need a much more expensive device, and one specifically for your car/manufacturer. But as far as reading and clearing diagnostic codes this is a great inexpensive way to do that. A dealer would probably charge you $100 - $200 just to read the codes (I do know that's what BMW would charge you, albeit they might discount that if you have them perform the repair). So this is a very inexpensive and easy tool to use to understand the nature of the problem you car is reporting. The device gets its power it needs to run directly from the OBDC connector. If the device doesn't power on, you probably have a fuse problem (and that's not the reader's fault).

Honestly this was great. Very intuitive controls and easy to read what the issue was in my vehicle. I have peace of mind anytime my check engine light comes on without having to go to auto zone or the mechanic. It’s nice to have the knowledge ahead of time! The device itself feels sturdy and of good quality. It was easy to plug in and use. Good design. It was accurately reading the codes as my mechanic confirmed them.

Worked like a charm, and not hard to understand

This is pretty inexpensive, easy to use, and works on a lot of brands! I own a few old Su###us and they keep throwing codes for incompletely burned fuel/other emission errors... not easily or cheaply fixed. If your car runs fine still... like mine... just clear the code when it happens so you can again use your cruise control (it turns off when a code is thrown).

I’m buying a used car. Sadly some people are dishonest and will clear codes. This will show you if codes have been cleared. I did some research and this was rated the best scanner for non-mechanics. Some of the fancier scanners will give you a lot more information but it wont mean much to you if you’re not a car person.This is easy to use and works well. It’s been compatible with the cars I’ve looked at (Ford, Chevy, Hyundai, Toyota made in the last 10-12 years). It gives you enough information to know what the lights on your dash mean.I recommend this scanner. It’s a great tool to have around. Especially if you have an older car.

Shows correct codes, it’s ease to use and lightweight, the quality seems very good. Once connected it’s very quick and accurate.

This little contraption worked like a charm ! My engine light comes on every now and then. I just used this to diagnose the issue. It worked in a matter of seconds after I plugged it in. It gave the specific code I needed to research the part needed to fix it, and told me what the issue is in detail, then it gives you the option to erase the code on your dashboard if desired. I am so shocked that it actually worked. Everyone told me not to buy this because you needed a mechanic to do it... anyway, so pleased with this and it was only $25. For reference, I have a 2009 Saab 9-3, which is becoming obsolete, so it's nice to be able to be knowledgeable about my own car, and do as much as I can on my own especially being a woman. Very empowering :)
