Amazon.com Product Description Is your car's check engine light on? If it is, your car is trying to tell you something and the Actron CP9145 Super AutoScanner Diagnostic Code Scanner speaks its language. Use this scanner to unlock the information stored in your car's computer. Whenever your check engine light is on, the device can pinpoint the problem so you can fix it fast and be on your way. 
The Actron CP9145 easily scans and retrieves DTCs. View details. | 
The user interface is designed for ease of use and quick control of scanning functions. | 
Turn off that distracting "check engine" light. | The scanner allows you to easily retrieve, read, and erase OBD II trouble codes, as well as display and read live vehicle data for a faster diagnosis. With optional cables, you can also retrieve OBD I codes and live data for 1984-95 Ford and GM models, and 1989-95 Chrysler models. This sophisticated, yet extremely user-friendly tool includes the CP9145 base unit and can be used on OBD II compliant cars and light trucks sold in the U.S. from 1996 to present. Plus, the tool is fully upgradeable, accommodating future vehicles. The CP9145 is built tough for both shop and road test use. It also features a large, easy-to-read liquid crystal display that shows the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and their definitions. And although you still have to fix the problem, the scanner will deactivate the "check engine" light on your dash so you'll no longer be distracted while you drive. The scanner is easy to connect to your vehicle, and a user friendly menu provides a variety of information in a snap, including live engine data parameters (PIDs). Built-in help screens help you interpret the data, and you can view freeze frame data, which provides a "snapshot" of the vehicle's operating conditions at the time of the fault. Meanwhile, an internal 9-volt battery stores the latest test results for later review. Use the Monitor Status and I/M readiness (Inspection/Maintenance) function to determine if your vehicle is ready for an emissions test. I/M Readiness is an excellent function to use prior to having a vehicle inspected for compliance with a state emissions program, so you'll have a good idea if your vehicle will pass the standards. Another important thing to remember is that all emission testing facilities will fail a vehicle that has the "check engine" light illuminated at the time of the test--even if it is only lit to remind you of a past-due oil change or 60,000-mile tune-up. With this scanner, you can shut off the check engine light and pass the emissions test on your terms. The menu also alerts you of any pending DTCs and reads the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) status. By reading the MIL status the scanner gives insight into what might cause your "check engine" light to turn on in the near future. In this way, the scanner also provides some preventive measures to help you keep a close eye on your vehicle's systems. The scanner comes with CD software that contains 5,000 Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and their descriptions. What's in the Box Super AutoScanner CP9145, OBD II cable, 8-foot extension cable, manual/CD-ROM with over 5,000 code definitions, and soft carrying case. Manufacturer Warranty One-year limited warranty.

Does the Job June 28, 2008 It is easy to use, up and running in less than two minutes. Will not fix your car for you but will give you a code and you would go online to do research on the code to fix it yourself. You may have to go to the dealer to get the car fixed but at least when you walk in that door, you have the correct knowledge of it.
Just have the correct expectation for this product... you're not buying a mechanic.
Great tool AND C.A.N. compliant June 7, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I got this when it was a Gold Box deal in May 2008. Got it for a GREAT price well under $eventy doll@rs. At that price this was a steal. I use it to turn of check engine lights after I do an oil change on my 2007 Kia Sedona EX. Used it to diagnose my fathers 1995 Ford Ranger pickup. And diagnosed a bad vacum in my 2000 Subaru. This device will pay for itself in about a year when you consider a trip to a mechanic in NYC costs $5 - $10 to turn an idiot light off.
Great tool for any level of user. I am not a mechanic. I am actually a computer programmer. Can do basic things like oil changes, tune ups, ect and this is easy to use.
I read some have asked if its C.A.N. compliant and answer is yes BUT only if its the new firmware. Mine was luckily. If yours is not there is an upgrade, but it costs money. Go to actrons website to see what the firmware is for the C.A.N. compliancy
Big Bank for the buck June 2, 2008 My son has a shop and I sometimes help him out so I wanted a small quick scanner for myself. This has proven to be a pretty good scanner so far. I have used it several times and then used our OTC scanner and it only failed once to pick up a code.
Great piece of test Equip. May 26, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Good for the money and for the function May 22, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Does what it's supposed to, and does it well. At the price that was in effect when I bought it from Amazon.com (substantially reduced from its original price), it's a better value than the competitive products from other manufacturers. I'd have liked it to do diagnosis on transmission and Auto-HVAC and to change factory settings on operational functions where applicable, but then again, the machines that can do that cost in the thousands of dollars.
