I wanted to know if anyone had a good/cheap/reasonably priced ODBII scantool/cable and software that you recommend. I want to use something that can interface with my laptop and that i can connect through usb. Also i just want simple basic options with the software to tell me what the codes mean that the ecu maybe throwing and to monitor simple things. Thanks

 

Check ebay and amazon.com

I've seen scan tools...really good ones you're talking about for 100 bux

 

Yeah i saw those but i didnt know if they were any good, thats why i wanted to ask. But thanks for the input.

 

I'm looking for the same exact thing. Can anyone out there recommend a good code scanner?

 

damn. is that CEL still popping up here and there?

 

It hasn't popped up again but it's happened enough that buying a code reader would make sense. It would also help me ask better questions here on the forum if I knew what was specifically happening to my car.

 

I have this....

But I got it with a hard case.

 

I kinda wanted something that i could interface with a laptop and some free software..i see fuzzy from the link u provided that it can connect to a lap top but it only updates every 30 Secs according to Amazon. I wanted something that could update everysecond hopefully.
