5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I bought my ANCEL AD310 OBD reader @ a bin store & it came with no instructions. Thank you so very much. You're a great instructor. I understood everything perfectly. Thanks again!😊
I’m not sure exactly which Ancel code reader I have it has 4 buttons but it just saved my 22 year old F-250 from going to the transmission shop. OD light started flashing after a rough shift from 1 - 2. Then the service engine soon light came on. I thought crap new transmission. I plugged my Ancel code reader in not even expecting it to detect a transmission issue because my check engine light wasn’t on. Took a few attempts to get it to sync properly but it diagnosed a bad speed sensor in the transmission. I removed sensor cleaned connections reset trucks computer. So far it hasn’t happened again. I’m impressed!
Just received mine on amazon as well as others in comments. This is going to help ease my mind - I have at least 3 more 200 mile round trips to another city I'm moving to, and really dont' want to put money into my 2005 Focus.. and just want to successfully move my car and belongings to the other city and then leave it in the parking lot til I buy another car.
I bought the Ancel AD310, about a year ago.... I'm about ready to try it, as soon I get ( hopefully not), a CEL. But you made a great video, and showing how easy it is to use!! Thanks!! ( I did hit the "like" button)
There is a quick way to figure out if it's the O2 sensor (after the cat), or the cat itself (for the 420 code). Most cars have two O2 sensors (one before the cat, and a second after it). Both of them work together to help manage fuel usage/efficiency. If your OB2 reader has a graphing mode, pick both O2 sensors to live graph, and then run the engine. The O2 sensor before the cat should vary voltage up and down while idling (it's reading the emission levels after it leaves the first cylinder, and before it goes through the cat).... and the O2 sensor after the cat should barely fluctuate in voltage IF the cat is actually working as it should. If the second O2 sensor is fluctuating up and down in voltage just like the one before the cat, the cat is likely bad and should be replaced. If the second O2 sensor is staying steady, it could be a bad sensor, which would make it seem like the cat is actually working right... but to make sure, some OBD2 readers/scanners also have the ability to test individual sensors... that way you don't have to swap out a working O2 sensor just to see it it was reading falsely. There are a few videos on YT showing this method to test OB2 sensors/readings.
Hi and thanks for watching. They are LED bulbs so in my opinion they are pretty energy efficient. Also the fact that you can schedule when you want them to turn on and off adds to the saving of electricity. Thanks again for watching!
Thank you so much fit taking the time to make this video. As a lady, I found your video very easy to comprehend and follow. I just purchased this product and I will test it out tomorrow.
Thank you so much for this video Todd. It was very helpful! Really appreciate you sharing your expertise and showing how easy it is to use. Hope you enjoy the holidays.
Didn't pass my emissions test so bought this after going through the recommended drive cycle online. My car is read as "not ready" and INC at a repair shop. Can I use this to show what part of the drive cycle is the issue? Would love to see a video on using this to pass emissions testing. Thanks so much for this video. Made the process less intimidating for me 😊
@BuiltToLaugh if the problem hasn't been solved the check engine light will come on again. Sometimes a check engine light will come on but the problem is not ongoing. So clearing it is not hiding the problem.
Nice review, Just had mine and walk thru all of that options and realized that it was Greek to me before I watched that video. BTW, You did not show how to reset odometer from 225,000 miles miles to 20,000 miles? 😂😂
Trying to use this reader to erase an engine light code relating to fuel mix (the car is running like a top) and unfortunately, I get an error message on the device after following all of the steps outlined in this video and I have received a "link error" three times now. I am not giving up yet but it leaves me wondering whether I need to do something else in the set up like identifying that the car is a 2015 BMW Z4 before trying to use the device (?) (though I tend to think not). The one issue that is a bit confusing is turning the car on when using a fob though I also tried running the car rather than just pushing the start button without standing on the brake pedal and the device did ask me to turn the car off. Back to the manual. Thanks for the video well done
I should add that the dealer had two visits to try to diagnose the problem. They were recommending replacing the fuel injectors as the next step but indicated that they did not know whether this would solve the engine light. Since the car is more or less running like a top, I was not keen on having the fuel injectors replaced (at great cost I might add). I was hoping to have my own way to turn off the light to wait until "the problem" is significant enough to justify the effort (the car has been on the road for just over 10 years but it only has about 60,000 km on the odometer.
OXYGEN SENSOR misdiagnosis - There may be a simple zero cost fix to try first! I have a 2004 Toyota Camry. Over the years, I've had a check engine light at least 4 times. When I had it checked the first time it happened, a Toyota dealership and a repair shop both told me that the O2 sensor was bad and had to be replaced. It's expensive for a cheap guy like me, so I started asking around. Finally, I found someone who told me to check my gas cap. What???? Well,it turns out that a loose or malfunctioning gas cap causes this same error, so I checked. I must have had a mental lapse the last time that I got gas because sure enough, it was loose. I unscrewed it all the way, screws it back in, then drove around for awhile. The check engine light went off. I probably put 20 miles on it before it cleared itself, and I think I had to take at least 2 separate drives, or stop somewhere and shut the engine off. Regardless, if the check engine light never goes out, then I would take it in for replacement when I had a bit more money. I think - I don't know for sure - that a faulty O2 sensor just decreases the performance of the engine, so I would never in a panic to pay to someone to replace it. That's my take on it. By the way, the last time it happened, I bought a replacement gas cap at a parts store for about $25. Big savings over replacement that mechanics said that I NEEDED to fix the problem!! I hope this is the reason that you are getting this error instead of needing new one. Good luck.
My garage told me so many O2 sensors are replaced needlessly it would seem many garages are using it as a cash cow or simply do not know their jobs. It is an indicator there is an issue NOT that it is a faulty sensor so you have other checks to do before replacing the sensor otherwise the issue will still exist and you have paid for something you didn't need.
My car throws a check engine light occasionally but it goes out on its own after so many start and stop cycles. I suspect it's just a misfire and once it goes a predetermined number of on/off cycles without a misfire it automatically resets itself. Mine just went off again last week so I ordered one of these scanners just to make sure it isn't anything serious.
Just got this for my 2013 gmc sierra as I have had codes pop up every now and then.. also have a wheel speed sensor that’s broken so my traction control and abs and stabilitrac lights are on.. does this unit read the codes for that to determine which wheel speed sensor it is? I can’t seem to figure it out

just wondering why this will NOT show code when my ford transit service transmission light illuminates during driving.... I plugged in while driving and will not pull code. Have to do it this way because pulling over and turning key off after cycling light will go off and not show anything....any assistance or general guidance will be very appreciative. ????????? Thx
@@Boogiethrash well, I haven't a clue what that is...but am thinking of ordering this exact AD310 unit from Amazon. When it showed the P2244 code, did it also (on the AD310) tell you to check on the "charcoal canister" ? Or did you have to go online and research what 2244 referred to?

@@ToddsGarage I have P0420 I know the problem is still there. I'm not sure exactly what it is yet. My garage suggested the catalytic converter but that was just replaced a few months ago. I haven't had them really look at it yet because I'm afraid of how much it will cost.
Hello, I just recently bought a car. Does this code reader only work if your car has a check engine light? If so, is there any that could diagnosis other existing problems with the car?
Doesn’t the “II” (2) mean 2nd Gen? I have a question about erasing codes. When you erase the code, would you then need to use one of the Automotive Memory Savers on the market to save the OTHER settings (that haven’t been erased), disconnect and reconnect the battery-to save yourself from having to drive around for so many miles to reset everything? Good video. 👍🏻
I bought this product "ANCEL Ad310". Unfortunately, it does not show me any error codes although my car does (ABS error, tire problems). What could be the reason for this?
These are, intentionally I believe, designed not to address ABS and/or airbag codes. Probably since they are safety systems. I assume because of liability and/or legal restraints.
@@ToddsGarage What was the final verdict on the recurring P0420 code featured in this video? Did you ever replace the sensor? If so, did that solve the issue? I'm hoping you didn't have to replace your cat. I'm in a similar situation and looking for positive inspiration.
No, gloves are not required to operate an OBD-II, most likely he was working on something prior to the video or about to work on something post recording.
Thanks ... a friend let me borrow his and you helped P0302 and 4 ... someone drove 10 miles home with the CEL blinking at them.🙃 live and learn ... $,$$$.00's
yeah, I'm sure they meant you can just turn the accessories on, don't have to actually crank up the engine to pull codes. If you want to scan the engine, then you crank it up.
WARNING: Do not use this scanner without gloves, goggles, hazmat suit & a hard hat! Line the hard hat with Aluminum foil for best results. A lubricated full body cond0m is reccommended for those with sensitive skin.
Just bought this on Amazon and knew nothing about cars and OBD scanners. Your video helped so much!! Thank you!

Hey you didn't say if P0420 was sensor 1 or Sensor 2 of Bank 1.
The other thing is deciphering upstream/downstream on online partstore
You verify P0420 by using sensor 2 of whatever bank. Upstream is sensor 1 downstream is sensor 2.

Thanks for watching! Strange, that is too bad. I'm not sure of that issue, I would contact Ancel to see if they can help.
Did you ever figure out the issue? Same problem ofr me.
@@Team6OWG no, i brought a different one
@@DragonDrawingsG25 So.... tell us all which one you went with, you must be happy with the replacement....
Does this need batteries?
Thanks ... a friend let me borrow his and you helped P0302 and 4 ... someone drove 10 miles home with the CEL blinking at them.🙃 live and learn ... $,$$$.00's
What's with the orange gloves?
Bought this and didn’t even receive the owners manual
At 06:12, "Turn Key on with Engine Off". That's a little confusing.
yeah, I'm sure they meant you can just turn the accessories on, don't have to actually crank up the engine to pull codes. If you want to scan the engine, then you crank it up.
How is it confusing? Turn the key forward without cranking the engine..
Please in spanish
Why are you wearing gloves? 😂😂 cool video tho.
Code reader radioactive
WARNING: Do not use this scanner without gloves, goggles, hazmat suit & a hard hat!
Line the hard hat with Aluminum foil for best results. A lubricated full body cond0m is reccommended for those with sensitive skin.
Rubber gloves? Why
I always wear Nitrile gloves when working in the garage. Thanks for watching!
Looks cute
Gezuz Christ get to the point … we don’t care where you bought it…2 minutes and you’re still yapping
