LAUNCHCreader 3001 OBD2 Scanner, Engine Fault Code Reader Mode 6 CAN Diagnostic Scan Tool for All OBDII Protocol Cars Since 1996, Lifetime Free Update

I ordered this because I couldn't find my two old OBDII readers (lost somewhere in the garage...) I didn't want to spend much money because I know the old ones will eventually turn up when I'm looking for sandpaper or something similar.This one is from a reliable company and the price is right! It's well-built, comes with a cover for the connector and even a USB cable for update. No instructions, but it's so simple none are needed.It worked perfectly to read the codes that caused a Check Engine Light on my 2010 Mercedes E350. I also cleared the codes and the CEL went away. The CEL will probably come back because the code is for low engine temperature and that is almost certainly a stuck open thermostat.Solid manufacturer, solid build, solid functionality, solid Value For Money.... 5 Stars!!

I have an older car that I'll keep drive it, until it bottoms out. Once a while parts craps out for they do worn out and I don't mind work on them. However, engine check light comes on time to time after I work on the car. I check all the lines and parts; and recheck the code. That's where this device comes very hand to ID the problem and reset as needed.This time, I changed starter on my older car over the wknd. The emission light came on after driving for about 5min. Thought because memory has wiped out while I disconnect the negative. Drove the car more, yet the light remains on. I pulled out the Creader OBD scan, it took about 1min to Dx. Turned out to be faulty knock sensor. I checked at an auto parts store, which confirmed as well. I was able to reset with this device, took about 30sec to reset.I had an older OBD scan, unfortunately it did not have reset/erase the code function. I purchased this in 2022; wish I had it earlier. If you are a DIY person, keep this in your garage or glove box. It does come handy.Pro: Easy to useCon: noneVerdict: ease use OBDII reader and reset-er. Recommended to any DIY'ers.

Love this! Works great not your typical simple scanner. Looks simple but does a lot

Inexpensive but does what I need to do reading code and braces them

good product!

Works as advertised. Beats going to the local auto store to diagnose. Easy to use.

Does what I needed it to do. Removing car battery didn't reset engine codes. This made it simple. I haven't tested other real-time functions, so I can't comment on that.

Works well. Able to read information great and accurately.
