Yeah 0dtc means no code. What vehicle are you having an issue with? If you can make it to an autozone they check codes free. Some higher end scanners can stream live data as well
@@JessLehman yeha I know, I wanted to buy it for emergencies. 2019 Subaru Forester AWD Hearing some whirring noise for the last 2500 miles and hoping it’s just a bad wheel bearing but I want to check the transmission without paying a shop $140 for a diagnostic test
You could try putting the driven end(depending if it's fwd or rwd) on jack stands and putting the car in gear. It would at least eliminate the non-driven end being a wheel bearing.
Dang well... I wish you good luck! I don't think any scanner would be able to find the source of the noise but that's just my opinion. Couldn't be the tires? Both my trucks have bad road noise between 60-68mph
I have had varied luck. Sometimes, you can leave the key where it is and unplug/plug the code reader back in and it works. Sometimes you have to start over.
It takes a few seconds to read engine codes, all the app does is give you the cause and possible solutions, but it can erase engine codes and check engine light it's not that big of a piece of shit for 20
You are more than welcome to your opinion. I hate having apps on my phone so the app is a no for me because I can google codes and get the same result.
If you had the mental capacity to listen to what he said, you wouldn't have asked this question. He discovered it gives you a repeated ERROR message before reading.
I am in fact cheap. I have a $500 tuning cable/reader/scanner I can't use because the current net framework is no longer compatible with my laptop. Until I can get a new laptop, cheap sh** it is. Plus who knows, maybe this video will help out someone who can't afford the more expensive chinesium from Walmart like you have.
@@JessLehman Mine works. If you paid $500 for an OBD scanner that cant be used now due to outdated and discontined software updates then you got ripped off on that purchase. At least as you claimed the cheap sh** Walmart HT100 scanner did work and gave codes for one car you mentioned. Even giving ERROR warnings shows its doing something. Hows the $500 outdated dinosaur thats off the market working for you?
So aggressive for no reason. This video is meant to help someone who bought the cheap reader, not to stroke a Walmart tools fanatic's ego, sorry. My cable is fine. The laptop is old. As much is evident if you read the comment properly the first time. Have a good day.
Negative af. Why do a review video?? My apologies I feel like I'm being rude for saying that to you like this is your video and I didn't have to watch it but it just caught me off-guard like I went to this video because it was a review of the product and it was like so negative off the bat apologize you probably have a bad experience with it I don't know. I honestly tried to retract my comment but it already posted so I'll just go ahead and apologize have a good day but thanks for the information.
Don't apologize. I'm not going to lie about a product(especially if it's a low quality low-dollar tool). That could do a lot more damage to someone trying to get an honest review. As the saying goes, "If the truth shall kill them, let them die."
This was the perfect review of the product not wasting our time and to the point. Thank you so much.
Excellent video well done. Short and informative.
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!!
This video was brilliant!
Thanks for taking the time to do this!
Of course!
Lots of mouth breathers in your comments. Thanks for the video.
Literally laughed out loud. 😂 Thanks!
Do u have to charge it
No, this scanner draws power from the obd port.
0 DTC, I guess that means there is no code? Was hoping to do a transmission check with this

@@JessLehman maybe. It’s AWD though. The noise only happens between 45-65mph though

Do you have to restart the engine each time u get error code
I have had varied luck. Sometimes, you can leave the key where it is and unplug/plug the code reader back in and it works. Sometimes you have to start over.
Are error codes consecutive
Unsure what you mean by this.

If it’s a piece of shi/ then why did you buy it
Because it was $20. And I only found out it was a pos after I bought it. Not before.

I have the HT300. Sooooo, maybe you just chose to buy the cheaper piece of sh** because you are cheap.
