    I am a professional Technician. This little handy dandy tool is fast, easy, and gets to the point of the problem with little to no issues.

    Self powered, and can tell you current codes, pending codes, as well as what monitors have been run. Comes with a nice booklet that explains how OBDII works, and has a code chart for most cars.

    Well made, Ive had mine for a few years now, its far easier to use then most “top dollar” scan tools.

    Cannot show sensor values in real time.
    Clears codes – Yes
    Shows Codes – Yes
    Shows Pending Codes – Yes
    Shows if monitors have run – Yes

    This review is from: INNOVA 3100 CAN/OBDII Code Reader (Automotive)

    I bought INNOVA 3100 about 2 weeks ago because my MIL (Malfunction Indicator Light) was on. Plugged it in after reading the manual. It said Oxygen Sensor Bank 1 Heater was bad. Called Mitsubishi dealer: Cost of part $317.43 plus 30 minutes of shop time. Looked up a replacement on internet at a cost of $37 plus $10 for a special socket to remove and replace. Another $7 for a Sears crimping tool and I replaced the part and saved over $228 plus I have the INNOVA to use over and over again.

    Some reviewers have said that they can’t save reports in their computer. There is now a button on the INNOVA supplied program to “Save to File.” This makes a test file of about 17 different test results. It is in .txt format and you can copy and paste it into a Word document if you want to dress up the format.

    Both the PC CD and the tool worked fine right out of the box. The unit comes with two cables: One to plug into the OBD2 socket under the dashboard of your car, and the other to plug into a USB socket on your PC. The INNOVA has built in memory to save readings obtained during a drive and then subsequently provide the data to your PC.

    I am VERY PLEASED to give this unit FIVE STARS.

    Bought this, spent 15 minutes studying the manual, plugged it in, and it worked first time — read out the “check engine” code, and, when later plugged into a PC, allowed the details to be printed in a nice report.

    The only negative I’ve noticed is that when you reset the “check engine” code in the car’s computer, it erases the reader’s memory of it, so you have to do the PC printout before resetting the code.

    Some folks believe that if you use a device like this on one car it’s “locked in” to that car and can’t be used on a different car. This is not true — I’ve used it on several different cars with no problems.
