The more expensive the tool the more features and capability you have.Intermittent Loss Of Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) Misfire Adaptive Numerator at Limit No Crankshaft Reference Signal at Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Timing Belt Skipped 1 Tooth or More Usually when it comes to scan tools you get what you pay for.

If you would like to have more capability like being able to see the data (like coolant temperature, air flow, air temperature etc) or reading codes for the ABS (Anti Lock Brake System or the SRS (Safety Restraint System) and more, you would need to look beyond just a basic code reader. The manufacturers are also allowed to have additional fault codes besides the Generic ones, these are called manufacturer specific codes. Most Do It Yourselfers are happy with a basic code reader. The non manufacturer specific codes are referred to as “Generic codes.” The US Government required all vehicle manufacturers to standardize many fault codes and use the same numeric codes. This is in effort to make vehicles easier to work on, no matter if you are working on a Mitsubishi, a Dodge Ram or anything in between. For example, a P0301 fault code means there is a number one misfire no matter what make the vehicle is. A good basic code reader will provide the definition of most PCM (Power Train Control Module) or ECU (Electronic Control Module) fault codes, with the exception of manufacturer specific codes.

Beware of some of the very low priced code readers that may not provide a definition of the codes and may require a manual to look the codes up. If all you want is the capability to read the CEL (Check Engine Light) or SES (Service Engine Soon) about any basic code reader will do. Since your vehicles were manufactured later than 96, both have OBDII. Vehicles built from 1996 and later have a standardized interface connection called OBD II(aka OBD 2 or Onboard Diagnostics second generation). At the risk of giving you TMI (Too Much Information) read on for more. I just want to figure out what is going on when a check engine light comes on.Īnswer: The short answer is a basic code reader will do. I am not familiar with using these tools so I am not really sure what features I need. I am looking for a scanner that will cover both vehicles. Question: I own 2 vehicles a 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse and a 1999 Dodge Ram 1500. Choosing an Automotive Scan Tool or Code Reader
