Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/11/2014 -- From the dawn of the automobile, owners could tinker and work on their vehicles themselves. Then in 1993 to 1996 computer chips were added to cars and that changed everything for the ordinary home mechanic. Now they needed an auto code scanner. Buying a scanner is easy; it is finding the scanning tool that is user-friendly, upgradeable, fits a budget, and works on the needed vehicle or vehicles that is hard. One website Autocodescanners.com has taken the guess work out of finding that ideal scanner by researching and testing out the scanners on the market and posting their findings onto their website, autocodescanners.com.
When auto code scanners were first introduced to the market many of them would do only engine performance and emissions but would not do ABS, air bags and others would not display all of the same information or data that the dealer tools would. However, over time they have improved and have become lower in price. Mechanics and shops do not want people to know that every car has a standard "Onboard Diagnostic II" or ODBII port that anyone can hook an auto code scanner up to and read their cars diagnostics. Some of the new auto code scanners allow home mechanics to clear error codes and/or warning lights and some even hook-up via Bluetooth to allow real time reading on how the car is performing.
Over only a few uses, an auto code scanner can easily pay for itself by giving the user power in knowledge of what is occurring within their vehicle. Now, that user does not have to take a mechanics word for it, they have their own information to go on and can speak to the mechanic feeling confident about the situation. An auto code scanner can make any home mechanic feel like a king.
Autocodescanners.com does a thorough independent review of scanner and discusses the tool in length. Their reviews can include whom the tool is right for, videos of the tool, pictures, other user reviews, features, downsides, and a link to purchase the tool off of Amazon if the reader wishes to do so. With Christmas right around the corner, an auto code scanner is just the right gift for the home mechanic.
One user of autocodescanners.com David Peterson had this to say:
"I'm amazed how few people know about these devices. People use them to save time or money or just because they love to know what's going on with their car."
