I just bought one. Thanks Todd for the overview. I get more out of listening and watching someone that is knowlegeable explain the features than I do reading the manual.
I just ordered mine off Amazon for $36. It was on sale. I’m hoping this will help. It’s warming up. I got a few cars I need to work on, so yeah I’m looking forward to using this little device. Thanks for sharing information on this OBD code reader
Todd, excellent review of the ODB Ancel scan tool. Cheap awsome, spend a few busks! Know whats wrong quickly before your mechanic knows.. dont tell mechanic - I love it.
I bought this reader and it was very easy to read and gave me information on the go and let me know if It's something I should fix before continuing my drive or okay to travel on until I can fix the problem. Loved this unit, then someone stole it out of my truck and only a few so called friends knew where I stored it. Yep, I know who I can trust now, no longer a friend. He can fix his own junk now.
I'm usually not fan of too many things coming out of China but this has been a great tool.. I've had it for several years without issue. I've used it on Mitsubishi 3000GT, Nissan cube, Nissan versa, Jeep Wrangler JLU 2018, 2021 RAM warlock and many other vehicles.
You are a good teacher you teach things in a cool manner and step by step in so easy to follow keep it up brother MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR BUSINESS AMEN AND AMEN..thanks brother
Hi and thanks for watching! I'll add making a video about a firmware update to my list and hopefully can make in the future. Thanks again for watching!
Dude thank you for the review haha, I just bought a new car, but my old one I'm still using for the moment just got a code that says my catalytic converter is faulty & the absorption efficiency is below threshold bank 1 😮💨🤦🏾♂️
At 7:25 it shows Readiness supported =6 and Readiness complete =5, which confirmed what he said earlier about one of his systems needs more time to digest info.
Can this help you turn off the check engine/ service/ oil lights?? Notice there's an option to erase codes, but curious whether that extends to service etc. Great review!! :)
Great video, would you know why I keep going to I/M readiness screen, I see a lot of green, every time I hit any button it takes me to about IM, I am not getting what you are getting on screen
Hi Adam, thanks for watching! Yes it can erase the trouble codes in your vehicles computer which will turn off the check engine light. However if the core issue isn't resolved the check engine light will most likely come back on within a few drives. Have a good weekend!
How exactly does the on board monitoring work or how do you read it can find anythin on what it mean all i know is my truck shows test#2 Component#11 Fail Also a number 21 under that same test number as fail but it also has two passes with those same numbers to
@@ToddsGarage yeah i hooked it up no trouble codes but when i go to on board monorting it says Test#2 you click that itlls go to a list that says Component#11 and #21 are what say fail but not any other info but min and max with some numbers and the book says hardly nothing about on board monitoring cant find anything on the Internet either
Hi and thanks for watching! It should, just verify your vehicle has an OBD2 port. You could verify with Ancel before you buy to know for sure. Thanks again for watching!
This company should pay you for this, the manual is terrible. Quote “Tips: Different products have different buttons.” Also my packaging was different from yours - hopefully its not a knock off (of the cheapest unit available)
Hi thanks for watching, yes connect the OBD2 Code Reader with the car off, then turn your car to the on position but no need to start the car up for most of the features.
@@newmillenniuminvestments HI Alfonso, I'm not sure then if you already have an OBD2 scanner that isn't working. Sorry I can't be more help. Thanks again for watching and good luck!
Why can't you show us a little bit more like the oxygen sensor the O2 sensor you can show us a graph of that and a good or a bad one and then you can store some of the sensor data about the fuel trim that's a good one explain that to us a little bit show us a little bit of a graph
If the author: (a) does NOT know what the mini-USB port for, (b) tells the viewers to read the manual; and (c) says, "We'll figure that out," then such statements leave me no room but to ask a question: "Does the author possess sufficient content knowledge on the device the author reviews?
I just bought one. Thanks Todd for the overview. I get more out of listening and watching someone that is knowlegeable explain the features than I do reading the manual.
That’s because the instructions are so small that no one can read it!
I agree! Great video Todd. Thanks for the help.

Thanks for taking the time to explain how to use this reader, very informative. Can you possibly do a video on updating the firmware?
Hi and thanks for watching! I'll add making a video about a firmware update to my list and hopefully can make in the future. Thanks again for watching!
Great video, watched it twice and connected to 2014 jeep Cherokee sport. Gave me a PO522 code that led to replacing engine oil sensor switch. Thanks
This is very helpful. Thanks
Have you updated this model??? Does it work better after the update! Thanks for sharing
Great video. Users manual didn't tell me shit. Thanx
Dude thank you for the review haha, I just bought a new car, but my old one I'm still using for the moment just got a code that says my catalytic converter is faulty & the absorption efficiency is below threshold bank 1 😮💨🤦🏾♂️
Can I use it while the engine is running? Will it show me more information if the engine is running?
At 7:25 it shows Readiness supported =6 and Readiness complete =5, which confirmed what he said earlier about one of his systems needs more time to digest info.
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
Hey Todd! Thank you so much buddy. Well discussed. 👏
Nice content. Can it detect a problem if the warning light has been previously disabled?
Thanks for all the info. I identified the reason for the check engine light coming on…code 0128 - Coolant Thermostat issue
Can this help you turn off the check engine/ service/ oil lights?? Notice there's an option to erase codes, but curious whether that extends to service etc.
Great review!! :)
Yes
Great overview, thank you sir.
Great video, would you know why I keep going to I/M readiness screen, I see a lot of green, every time I hit any button it takes me to about IM, I am not getting what you are getting on screen
Does this tool has throttle body re-learn feature? Thanks
Very helpful. Thank you.
Thanks for watching, I am glad the video was helpful!
Can you use this one to calibrate the tire circumference on ford vehicles?
Can u please explain how to use the o2 sensor tester please? Thank u
Will it reset idle control valve or throttle position sensor
What about friend, a question, this one is also used to erase codes or only to detect them. Thanks
It will erase codes
ELM327 compatible?
Does this read transmission fluid temperature?
great review and gothrough!! does it remove check engine light on the dashboard?
Hi Adam, thanks for watching! Yes it can erase the trouble codes in your vehicles computer which will turn off the check engine light. However if the core issue isn't resolved the check engine light will most likely come back on within a few drives. Have a good weekend!
Yes
I have a Skoda Fabia MK3. Does this item show the radio code stored on the car computer? Thanks.
Great informative video thanks
Thanks for watching, I'm glad you liked it!
Does it matter which protocol is used?
What does it mean when you ign and mil is orange?
Is it possible to read an ABS system wz Ancel AD410 SCANNER ?
I have a question, the car has to be in the “on” position but what about if you have a car with “start/stop” button
Manual says connect with key off and then to turn the ignition on or start the engine.
So when you see a check engine light and fix the mentioned problem, we have to then erase the generated code (check engine notification code)?
Correct, fox the problem, clear the code and good to go
Will this scanner read misfires?
Can it read the real actual Milage?
I have one of these, I have an abs light on and traction control but this gadget says I have no codes
Thank you 🙏
Do I have to wear gloves to use my unit?
No but if you're going to touch your buddies unit, you should be wearing gloves

Will this work on a 2011 Toyota Tacoma?
Hi and thanks for watching! It should, just verify your vehicle has an OBD2 port. You could verify with Ancel before you buy to know for sure. Thanks again for watching!
Does this read ABS & SRS?
No, just DTC codes and realtime data.
This company should pay you for this, the manual is terrible. Quote “Tips: Different products have different buttons.” Also my packaging was different from yours - hopefully its not a knock off (of the cheapest unit available)

Thanks for watching!
Connect with key off? Then turn key to on position, not starting motor?
Hi thanks for watching, yes connect the OBD2 Code Reader with the car off, then turn your car to the on position but no need to start the car up for most of the features.
Do You know if work with japanese Subaru Impreza 2006???

"make sure you thoroughly read through this manual"
...I'm watching this specifically to avoid reading the manual.
Great info..
Thanks for watching!
Not a well written manual so hoping you show us.
I couldn't get past the opening of the plastic cover. Thanks for showing how it's done.
How do we see erased codes?
I kept hearing Collin Robinson
Why can't you show us a little bit more like the oxygen sensor the O2 sensor you can show us a graph of that and a good or a bad one and then you can store some of the sensor data about the fuel trim that's a good one explain that to us a little bit show us a little bit of a graph
Thanks for watching, I will add that suggestion to my list of videos to make. I appreciate your feedback.
So Unintuitive meter. My old meter is so easy. I hate menu's. Im here to figure out.
pretty good video but if I wanted to read the manual i wouldn't be her watching you.
