Autoxray Codescout

Autoxray makes a complete line of automotive scanner and readers. Code readers allow you to read trouble codes and reset the check engine light. They are used to determine why "Check Engine" lights come on. Code Scanners read and erase trouble codes, display, and record and play back LIVE diagnostic data and perform other tests allowed by the vehicle maker. The main difference between Autoxray scanners and the $2,500 units used in dealerships is Autoxrays units do not have the ability to read air bag and ABS codes. Actron has recently released their BrakeScan unit (part #CP9449) that reads ABS codes and sells for around $300. OBD connections are found under the dashboard of cars are and very simple to access.

Autoxray makes several code readers under the CodeScout name. The most basic unit is the CodeScout 700. This unit will read all OBD II codes. Since 1996, all vehicles made for the US market must be OBD II compliant. This means that they all have the same connector and generic codes. The CodeScout 700 will work on all of these vehicles. The CodeScout 700 comes with a book of trouble code definitions. The reader will display the trouble code (ex. P2202) and you then look up in the book what the definition of the trouble code is (ex Oxygen sensor out of range).

The Autoxray CodeScout 1500 is the next higher model. The Autoxray CodeScout 1500 has all of the features of the CodeScout 700, but includes on screen definitions. On screen definitions mean that the codes will be displayed in plain English on the screen. Instead of looking up your trouble code the screen will simply say Oxygen Sensor out of range. This unit is also updateable via the internet. You can go to Autoxrays web site and download new trouble codes as they are released by the vehicle manufacturers. There is no charge for this as long as you register your unit when you buy it. There is a registration card in the case that you fill out and send in. Filling out this card also increases your warranty from 1 year to 3 years, so it is definitely worth doing.
