    This Foxwell NT604 code reader allows you to scan and view live data as well as read and clear vehicle specific codes on the engine (DME), transmission, ABS and SRS modules. This is huge as getting brand specific codes gives you a lot more information compared to the generic OBD2 codes and allows you to troubleshoot issues much faster. Save money by not going to the dealer or confirm that your mechanic isn't charging you for something that isn't broken. Diagnose at home and save!
    This unit was sent to me for a review.

    Great review. Because if one were to read the amazon reviews, one would be led to believe that it only reads transmission codes (if they were to come up) and not that this device actually shows you LIVE TRANSMISSION...which is critical because you would be able to tell that a transmission is slipping ("input shaft speed data") which is absolutely critical if buying a used car

    • @SimpleCarGuy
      @SimpleCarGuy  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, exactly! They don't mention this stuff because they seem to cater to DIYs or someone that wouldn't know how to use it, but I was able to fix a few issues with live data. Very helpful.

    hi there
    can i clear these codes with this obd tool--i have this problem with my 2010 ford focus diesel car, i sent the instrument cluster away but when it came back car wouldent start the people who resoldered some of the joints on cluster emailed me with this
    The Ford Focus has DTC codes that are stored separately from the ECU and these codes will show up on the driver's information screen located in the gauge cluster. Ford has a list of DTC codes that can come up and what they mean. If You have a code E510 D900 then that means that there is a communications fault for the ignition, as well as a communication fault with the transmission. Usually this means that Your car will not start. This most commonly happens when the wiring to the ECU gets damaged and it does not get a signal from the transmission or the ignition system.

    Thanks for the review, it gave me the confidence to buy one. Now I have a question. When you scan for DTCs, it comes up with two menu options once the scan is complete: "Current DTC" and "Other". What is "Other" supposed to be? Are they maturing? Historic? or a reference of all the possible ones? The manual shows one of the more upscale model screens and the menu choices on those are a little different. Thanks!

    Hello...very nice video...stupid question possibly, but can you tell me if this tool has the ability to tell me why my a/c isn't blowing cold air please? I have tried a can of A/C Pro Refrigerant as recommended to no avail. I have been advised with many different reasons but would like to get a more accurate explanation before taking it into garage for diagnostics.

    • @SimpleCarGuy
      @SimpleCarGuy  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi! Unless there is a failed electronic component, this tool won't tell you why it's not blowing cold air. Most likely you have a major leak somewhere or your AC compressor isn't working. Best way to figure this out is to hook up the gauges and see if there is pressure in the system. Good luck and thanks for watching!
