OBD2 Reader NEXPEAK NX301 Universal OBDII Car Diagnostic Scanner Tool for Car Engine OBD2/EOBD Diagnostic Scanner Automotive Engine Fault Code Reader CAN Scan Tool Black

I purchased this due to a 'Check Emission' Fault on my Megane Scenic. I fixed the issue before purchasing the scanner but the fault remained lit up. This scanner showed the fault and cleared it for me, just in time for my upcoming MOT. The first thing I did was update the product via my laptop using the simple instructions provided with the scanner. It's easy to use, clear and precise. I went through some other options that stated my car passed various checks. It'll come in handy for the future, very pleased with this.

I only just started driving again after a brief hiatus of 15 years. I bought a cheap VW Polo for only a grand. Only after a few weeks the ‘Check Engine’ light illuminated so I immediately took the car to the garage. They proceeded to charge me £50 to diagnose the problem. I believe this is the standard minimum extortionate rate in the UK. I was amazed that cars nowadays have ECUs ( A type of electronic control unit that controls a series of actuators on an internal combustion engine to ensure optimal engine performance). After a costly repair in the garage the engine light came on once again. I scoured the internet and thought that for £20 why not purchase the NX301. Ease of delivery The product arrived quickly just after placing my order. I arranged for a collection to be made at my local sorting office. Packaging Well packaged. The unit came in a sturdy box that includes software to update the unit, and a lead that you can plug into the pc to enable you to print. A comprehensive manual too. Build Quality The unit is by no means a ‘cheap and cheerful’ product. It is quite robust and comes with a thick lead; you plug it into the car’s ECU using a 16-pin male connector that connects to your 16-pin female connector in your car. Ease of use I plugged the unit into the car and instantly it communicated with the car’s computer immediately showing me a wealth of information about the car. A code came up that suggested I had trouble with a solenoid which I easily replaced myself. Saving garages’ diagnostic fees and labour charges. Conclusion Not all cars that were built before 2003 support the OBDII standard hence the device won’t work with your car. And I believe some cars that have wiring and sensor problems may not be able to use most obdii scanners. But this professional unit is a must and comes with a tidy bag that you can stow in your car. And if you break down you have on hand information to relay to the breakdown service. You are in charge!!!!!! Well worth the money!!!!

Worked perfectly on my son's VW Golf and correctly identified the one problem that we knew it had but encountered an issue when using it on my Vauxhall Zafira where the DTC Count reading varied from 58 to 100 each time I ran the diagnostics but could not show me the error codes as it said that they were "not stored in the module". Whether the machine just couldn't read them or my engine ECU is faulty I do not know. However, the marks I have given reflect that for the price, this machine is sturdy, well built and very easy to use. What attracted me to the Nexpeak was the facility to download the data onto a computer or tablet and then be able to print it out (after downloading and installing the free Nexpeak software). The results of the diagnosis tests appear to be very comprehensive but not being a fully trained motor mechanic most of the results meant very little to me. What I wanted was to be able to see what errors existed so that I could address any that might become critical. Not being able to read the codes though was a great disappointment. The instruction manual that comes with the machine is very basic and only adequate to be able to plug in and use the machine. It is of no assistance at all in interpreting the results but then given that it is "universal" for all makes and models of cars across the world, perhaps this was an unreasonable expectation of mine. In conclusion, if you have a VW Mk VI Golf - go for it. This machine does the business. If you have a Vauxhall Zafira then maybe/maybe not. I'll amend this review if I ever get to the bottom of the code reading problem I encountered if it turns out to my ECU!

Bought this to diagnose an issue with my car. Had terrific success, with the car back in action less than 24hrs after receiving this item. This device is so simple to use, reading error codes is simply a couple of taps away, and you're provided both the code and a short description of the fault allowing for easy diagnosis. You can also view pending codes, such as when you're buying a car and need to see if the previous owner cleared any check engine lights, and also clear your own faults. The device also lets you view a whole host of live data from the car, temps, mileage, revs, and lots of stuff way over my head but glad to have in case I need to diagnose a strange fault down the line. The device has a small amount of memory as well so you can store codes and data and then review later from the comfort of your home by plugging the device into a USB port. It's small enough to fit nicely in your hand and very light. It also comes with a pouch to store it in, and the generously lengthed cable comes with an attached Velcro strap to keep it tidy. The screen is clear and easy to read. Overall, very happy with this device and would gladly recommend to anyone looking for an OBDII tool.

An excellent piece of equipment. The instructions are clearly written and the scanner is easy to use. The kit contains a cable to connect to the car, a USB lead to connect to a PC and a carry/storage bag. Probably the hardest part of using this scanner is finding the car's On Board Diagnostic socket! Once you have found it, connect the scanner, scroll through a couple of easy to use menus and the car's error codes are shown, with a brief explanation. You can then either fix the problem (If you are able) or provide a garage with information as to what exactly needs to be repaired. Most garages will charge more than this device just to interrogate the car, so if you use it once, it's paid for itself! Well worth having and at a good price too.

I purchased this to try to find out why the check engine light was illuminated on a 2015 VW Golf. The first time I checked, one code came up. It said that there was a ground fault on the #2 glow plug circuit. I cleared the check engine light but it came back on then next time I operated the vehicle. This time the Nexpeak NX301 showed 2 codes. I was only able to read one of them. It also related to a ground fault on a glow plug, but a different cylinder number. The device would not let me read the second code as it was impossible to scroll down the list of codes. I pressed 'esc' and tried to re load the code list but the unit stated that there were no Stored or Pending codes. I noted the second code number and did a web search. It also related to a fault with a glow plug. The unit only reads generic codes, which in many cases are not what the problem is. I have since found out that there is nothing wrong with the glow plug wiring and that the fault was with the mass flow sensor.

I bought this to turn off my service light on my Mini Countryman, But it will not. But it did tell me that there where no faults in the car, Every thing seems to be working fine " NO FAULT CODES " . Very easy to use and it is very clear on the display to see. Trying with the engine running the tachometer was spot on. The Webb Site has all the fault codes listed so when it comes up you can soon see what is wrong. If you want to check for faults this is the tool for you. And at Amazon a good price. I am not biased or anyway anything to do with the company... Graham.

Bought this product as I had been meaning to for a while now. Having read a few reviews decided to go for this NEXPEAK NX301. Came same day I ordered it in a very professional box with instructions, USB cable and carry pouch. Updated it via their website which was easy to do (although it says to hold down OK when you turn it on but on mine it's ENTER). Connected it to test it on our Toyota Yaris 04, which I knew Already had EM light on for a previously diagnosed fault. The garage we took it to were at a loss to really find the exact problem and advised us to "just live with it" Which we have done for nearly 3 years. Basically it came up with the same code the garage test report showed (see pic 2)and charged for! Can't remember how much it cost but People on these review's seem to mention about £50 which seems about right. I could clear the code and the EM LIGHT with this too which is good but obviously it came back a few seconds later as fault still there. Fantastic bit of kit, hopefully I'll never use it again, but if the worst happens at least I'll know before taking it into garage and it'll save me a few quid. What's more likely is I'll save a neighbour or friend £50 when they borrow it as things like this always seem to go that way. 😇Fully recommended 👍 If I had to be critical I'd make carry pouch a bit bigger. Bit of a squeeze with booklet, device and cables and perhaps a cover for the connector when not in use 👏 5 stars.

Kann keine SRS Fehler auslesen.

bon produit pour les analyses generales et effacement mais le logiciel qui traite les données est de tres mauvaises qualité
