Questions & Answers

Does this program serve as a diagnostic tool to determine why the check engine light is on? and if there is a problem with the starting of the car?

A MS309 OBD2 scanner can read and clear codes on OBD2 systems, which helps to identify the cause of the check engine light.

The manufacturer control was all that was said by this tool. Does it not come with a code number? Do you know what that means? Ford Explorer Sport 1998?

In the US, OBD2 is universally installed in all In some cases, manufacturers will also include brand-specific codes, which might or might not be supported by code readers. Your sensor code is not supported by a $20 reader because it is specific to your vehicle or manufacturer.

Do you know if this will work on Nissan X trail T30 ?

I have not personally tested it on a Nissan yet, but I have used it on many other makes and models, including diesels, and so far as long as it has an OBD2 port, it will work, but there will be some PIDs it will not respond to.

How can your speedometer be adjusted to be accurate when your tires are different sizes?

As you look down- The shortening of a tire will result in an artificially faster speedometer reading than what you are actually driving at. In most vehicles, the speedometer reading changes when the tire height is modified because the transmission measures speed based on how many revolutions the tire makes.

In spite of the fact that it is among the cheapest I have seen, it works perfectly
5/5

Because the scanner is a small fraction of the price of competing models, I was skeptical of its value. Others reviewed the scanner saying that the display was too small or there were no instructions, but I was quite pleased when it actually worked. There was no way I expected it to match the HD display of an iPhone or an Android device today Originally, I was not going to watch any Not a single disappointment was found With print that is quite adequate for the purpose, the display is very legible. My Check Engine light was not illuminated and I had to locate the cause of the light myself in order to fix it. After replacing the defective turbo boost control, the light went out without needing instructions. In case I had needed more guidance, I could have accessed the manufacturer's site and obtained a more detailed manual from there. There is one Despite successfully turning off the malfunction code, I initially failed to turn off the Check Engine light. A generous customer let me wait overnight before returning the item, so I didn't have to return it. I noticed that the light was no longer on the next day when I started the car. According to the system, the warning light needs to be adjusted before it can be removed. The following update has been made There are no directions included in the book, according to several reviewers. The statement is not true, as I just found out. Inside the package are directions that are a bit tucked away. To cut the plastic anti-static bag, I used a sharp knife In the package of an anti-theft product, I was about to recycle the label inside when I realized it was actually two layers deep, with instructions on the inside. Most people would probably overlook this, simply throwing away the plastic packaging without looking inside the paper label.

It is essential that every car owner keeps this in his or her glove compartment
5/5

You can get so much help from this program, and it's so damn easy to use. You would think that as a retired automotive manager with 20 years experience (Aamco), there would have been one of these around long ago. Last week, I replaced the whole sub frame on my Acura and caused a hard transmission code. (I ended up breaking the connector on one of the transmission solenoids while going back in. ) After I got stuck in the 2nd gear failsafe, I knew not to drive the car as much as I needed to. I was planning on having a guy come out and scan the issue for me for 60 bucks so that I could determine which solenoid I was missing. The wife tells me to buy my own scanner from Amazon. I see! Aha! Exactly what I wanted to do. There are so many great features to this unit. It is extremely easy to use, and you can scan and reset any codes for ANY car, from the early 1990's to the present day. This is a tool that should be kept in the glove compartment.

The system is easy to use, and it can read and delete codes
5/5

My husband's 2013 Toyota FJ Cruiser was on the test drive. It didn't have a check engine light yet, it was just being tested I purchased this to use in the future in the event of an issue. I was surprised at how bright and clear the screen was. Simple to use, it only took a few minutes to plug it in. You could read the source code, and you could delete it. Users looking to use this reader for the first time will find it very intuitive. Honestly, I think this is a really great.

I would advise you to spend a few extra dollars for the larger In terms of the screen, I was unsure of whether to get the cheaper model or pay extra
5/5

As the screen gets bigger, it becomes easier to maneuver, and more importantly, a lot of the codes are explained right on the screen, so you can understand them right away, without having to search for them. The mechanic had already paid for this service by going to the auto- repair shop and mechanic Alternatively, you can go to the dealer's shop. If you are just getting an air-conditioner service, this is something you may want to consider Make sure your gas cap is tight or your filter is clean. I have an issue in which my car constantly engages the airflow despite regular cleaning and driving over 100k miles. The price is very reasonable for this kind of tool.

I was impressed with the scanner's performance
5/5

The Toyota Corolla I bought was flooded and I had to buy this. The vehicle was soaked to the bottom with thirty inches of water. The ecm had to be replaced and I anticipated that there would be another problem. I was surprised that the device provided not only the obd2 number but the description as well. Normally these units just display the number on the screen so I thought I would have to spend a lot of time looking them up on the internet. As a result of using this scanner, I found and corrected all the problems on the car so it ran like new. Problems were easy to spot and correct as a result of it. The car has now run without a code so far, and works properly. This is a very easy to use tool.

As far as I can tell, it does exactly what it should
4/5

ODB2 output had never occurred to me before, but after having some starting issues, I hoped there would be a diagnostic number in the car that would Isn't it strange that the vehicle wouldn't start after sitting for two days? There was nothing saved. It's not going to work. The answer is nothing. In addition to the VIN and other codes related to the vehicle, the device displayed the menus with no issue. I started the engine, let it idle for a few minutes, and it ran less smooth, but not rough, and no codes were associated with the car. That is good to hear that the emissions menu indicated everything was fine. We have to have our 19 yr old car's emissions checked (which is required by the state) along with our annual registration fees and paperwork in a few weeks. After that, I hit a relay under the dash while trying try to start (the PGM-E. Acura and Honda owners are taught about the FI circuit board), and the car started right away. There are some who refer to that as the "main relay". A $22 gift certificate is required Where you purchase the $100 part will determine how much it costs. There isn't an easy place to look or grab it on my car if you don't know where to look. The MS309 appears to be working properly, so I guess it A big thumbs up to your work.

Unlike other scanners, it clears codes others do not
5/5

My Sprinter Van's check engine light kept coming on even after using the FIXD Scanner for quite some time. I bought the scanner to clear it, but it couldn't clear one particular code. It was not a Mercedes after all, as I found out when I took it to Mercedes for deciphering the code The dealer gave me a price estimate that wasn't within the reasonable range and I didn't want to spend money on the outrageous estimate. Nonetheless, I wanted the check engine light to go away, and Mercedes wasn't going to remove it unless it was fixed by I think we have solved the problem. I live in California and this scanner completely removes the error code for a faulty heater element that is not used except when temperatures are below freezing, so I can no longer use it. While the error occurs again after a few starts, I have at least the knowledge that it is now possible to clear it.
