Good Value - Chris J. Patoine, Aug 29, 2008

This code reader works great and gave me the information I needed. I hooked it up and it gave me the code. From there you can link it to your computer and get a printout. The only drawback is you have to pay extra to get more information from the website regarding what the possible causes of the trouble codes could be and how to fix the problem.

First Impressions - Kurt Drocholl, Aug 16, 2008

This product looks and feels good. What I can say after using it twice, it eliminated the Check Engine light and
tells me after replacing the Secondary Air Pump on my 1997 Volkswagen Eurovan that everything is OK. So, try
it for yourself.

Does the Job and Inexpensive - Jerold D. Kowalsky, Aug 13, 2008

The Equus 3100 has all the features a home user needs, is easy to use and works as advertised while being inexpensive. Common codes are built into the device along with all codes being accessible via the internet. It saved me a service visit by showing that my problem was a fouled spark plug.

Great product, easy to use - Karl R. Brobeil, Aug 09, 2008

After getting useless information from car parts store that do OBDC readings for free, I decided to buy my own. The Equus 3100 is compact and easy to use. The readouts are clear and complete so you know exactly what the fault reading is.
