It features a clear backlit LCD, requires no laptop, and helps users reset check engine lights, making it an essential, cost-effective tool for DIY mechanics, used car buyers, and vintage vehicle owners. ## Description Read your engine check light (MIL) fault codes Reset fault codes Reset check engine light (turn it off) Read VIN Number (vehicles that support mode9, 2002 onwards) If you consider that a garage will charge you more than this unit costs to diagnose a problem and turn off your engine check light, it makes sound financial sense to have one of these handy. If you are in car sales or involved in mechanical repair then this piece of equipment is a must have. If you are thinking of buying a used car go armed with this device to check to see if any fault codes are stored in the ECU, not all fault codes will cause the indicator lamp to come on. You can also check the VIN number (see above) to make sure it's not stolen! You just plug it straight into the vehicle's diagnostic socket and start using it, simple as that! Reset faults and warning lights with the push of a button. Fault codes are in the reference manual. Review: Perfect for my uses. - If you are on desertcart looking to purchase a ~$20 code scanner, chances are you are not a mechanic. Many reviews here talk about how there are better scanners, and I suspect that they are right. I am not a mechanic, I am just a person with a check engine light that comes on regularly. Every time I take my truck into the shop, they say it is a historic code and not to worry about it. This scanner works well for me to check the code,and see if it is the same problem that always comes up. Most importantly, it lets me erase that code so that if a different issue makes my check engine light turn on I will know. I don't like the risk of driving with the check engine light always on, and this scanner lets me check what code is up without going to a mechanic of auto-zone, and allows me to erase it if it is a problem I recognize. I read a review before that mentioned that the scanner only gave a basic number, and did not tell you if that it was a P number. I have no idea what the difference is, but I can confirm that my scanner gave me a P number. Easy to use, and does what it claims. Review: Nifty Money Saver - I purchased this scanner despite the bad review stating it didn't give full codes. I'm really not a car guy but this thing will save me money. I ran a scan and received the code. I looked up the code and it was my egr flow code. I shut off the CEL and waited to see if it would come back on. It did. I googled the problem and found multiple posts on how to address the problem. This light came on a month ago and the dealer said they could get rid of it but it would require a thorough tune up and fuel injector cleaning. That cost $1100.00. What they didn't tell me was that the light might come back on. Then they wanted more money to look into the problem. I have a 96 G20 and I love the car but it's not worth putting 2 grand into it to shut off a light. It seems all the dealers end up trying to replace the egr sensor valve and that doesn't solve the problem. You have to clear carbon from some egr port at the throttle. I'll be going to a local mechanic to have that done. So this scanner saved me money. A lot of money. And I get to keep this car until it actually dies. Hopefully in a few more years. ## Features - This unit actually works with 1996 - 2003 cars and trucks only.

It's like making prints of digital photos. Sure, Wal-Mart will do it for pennies, but it's not that expensive to own your own photo printer. When I saw how affordable this reader was, I couldn't think of a good reason not to own one. I only have one car and I'm not the type who is likely to do any repairs myself other than changing bulbs, fuses, filters, wiper blades, etc. Therefore, I wasn't interested in spending more to get a code reader with fancier display, more buttons, or wider compatibility. I just wanted to be able to see the error codes and look them up so I would have some idea of what was going on BEFORE I started dealing with mechanics. At first, I was completely ignorant about where to find my OBD II socket. The instructions give you some guidelines on where to look, but the exact location can vary by make, model, and year. It took me about 15 minutes with a flashlight to find it, not for any particular reason except my ignorance. It wasn't really hidden nor difficult to see; I had just never seen one before in my life. Once located, it was a piece of cake to follow the instructions for connecting the reader and scrolling thru the codes. Although the instructions give you a brief description of common codes, it only took a few minutes with Google for me to seem like an expert about my problem. When I called the dealership to schedule a service appointment, I was able to tell them enough information that they were able to confirm coverage under my extended warranty, verify that all the relevant parts were in stock, and have me bring it in at a time when they would well-staffed for the type of repair. (In larger service departments, some mechanics are stronger in certain areas, so if you have a transmission problem, it's best not to show up on the day when the transmission specialist is off.) If you're worried this thing might be hard for a non-mechanic to use, you can stop worrying. If I could figure it out, anyone can. This product has worked so well, I almost regret that my car has been working so well that I rarely get to use my code reader. ## Frequently Bought Together - Memoscan U480 - Sika Sikaflex-522 Caravan And Motorhome Adhesive Sealant – Weather And Mould Resistant – White – 300ml --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sc/products/2571573-memoscan-u480](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/2571573-memoscan-u480) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-05-24*
