When will you need a OBD2 code reader for vehicles?
When your vehicle check engine light comes on, it can be a nerve-wracking experience. For the average driver, the uncertainty and trepidation that a check engine light creates can feel like getting a bad medical diagnosis that couldn't tell you what wrong is or how to fix it. Instead of worrying, consider using the SC301 diagnostic tool with dozens of dollars to discover if you are dealing with a larger repair or something as small as a loose gas cap👇👇:
Turn the ignition on without starting the car, plug it in, and hit enter. You never need to charge or install an SD card. It will locate the problems of your vehicle in minutes! SC301 works on all vehicles compatible with standard OBD2 protocols.

- Engine RPM
- VSS(Vehicle Speed Sensor)
- SPARKADV(Ignition timing advance for cylinder 1)

Green/Yellow/Red LED Notifications:
I/M readiness hotkeys make it easy to use the car computer reader right out of the package, to know if you are ready for a smog check, press the I/M button(rubber) for 3 seconds. Red-Yellow-Green LEDs and built-in speakers indicate the readiness status for a confident emissions test.
● Green - Indicates that engine systems are “OK” and working properly (the number of Monitors equipped with the vehicle which has run and performed their self-diagnostic testing is in the allowed range. MIL is off. ). No stored and pending DTCs exist. The vehicle is ready for an Emissions Test.
● Yellow - The tool finds a possible problem. It indicates the following two conditions:
(1) Pending DTCs exist. Please check the I/M Readiness test result screen and use the Read Codes function to view detailed code information.
(2) Some of the vehicle’s emission monitors have not worked properly. If the I/M Readiness screen shows no DTC (including pending DTC), but the Yellow LED is still illuminated, it indicates a “Monitor Has Not Run” status.
● Red - Indicates some problems exist with one or more of the vehicle’s systems, and the vehicle is not ready for an Emissions Test. As well there are DTCs found. The MIL lamp on the vehicle’s instrument panel will light steadily. The problem that is causing the illumination of Red LED should be fixed before an Emissions Test or driving the vehicle

CGSULIT SC301 OBD2 EOBD Scanner Code Reader Engine Light Tester For Smog Check
CGSULIT SC301 OBD2 EOBD Scanner Code Reader Engine Light Tester For Smog Check
Easy to use, scan ecm and transmission, review live data read and erase error code.
A great and convenient tool to have on hand to aid in diagnosing problems.
A great recommendation by Scotty Kilmer.
Hi I purchased this CGSULIT SC301 OBD2 Scanner and I have to say hands down this was the best device I have ever used. I used to go to Autozone for my check engine lights but after so many times it got annoying. This device had very fast shipping and the quality of this device is spot on. Very easy to use, I like how it gives you the exact info on what’s wrong. The display is very bright and clear. The best part was the price for the quality.
This is by far the easiest reader for the buck. I also own the BlueDriver witch I love that to. But this thing just gets straight to the point. Soon as it arrived I had updated it. Really easy to do with a computer. Took it out and gave it a try and I was super impressed. If your looking to make sure your car is ready for inspection. It will do it in a matter of seconds. Same with reading check engine lights. A lot faster then my BlueDriver. All though this is a basic obd2 reader. Definitely worth the money. If your looking to clear a check engine light this could be it. I say could because any scanner can clear a light. But if the problem is not fixed it could come back on. I would recommend this to a beginner or even a expert. Can’t go wrong with this purchase.
I got this when it was on sale for $60. At first, I thought this tool was junk. But then I realized, it was operator error. I've used a lot of tools but never on a push start vehicle. What you need to know is that you have to push the start button but not start the car. Then hold the start button for 3 - 5 seconds without starting the car. After, the car will power into a mode but not be started. Then you can hook up the scan tool and have access to codes and gain the ability to clear them. If you do not do this, you will not be able to clear them. I think this is probably the same as other scan devices as well.
Physically, I like the feel of the device with the black rubber grip thing all around the outside edge. It makes it feel durable. And the cord is plenty long enough for both using in the driver and passenger seat. No external batteries are required, it uses the power from the car. I wondered what about if the car had no power, but then I realized if that happened then even if the code reader had power it probably still wouldn't be able to the query the car for information due to the car having no power. I don't know much about cars, though, so maybe I'm wrong. Anyway, I like this thing so far but can't really do a fully accurate test until something goes wrong with my car again. I wish I would of had this thing years ago.
This unit has much more diagnostic capabilities than previous brands I have purchased. I primarily needed it to monitor all 4 O2 sensors on my dodge
Reads engine codes fast and list what they are giving accurate information on what the engine check light situation is.
