Default Auto Xray - OBDI Scanner
Hi all, I have one of the old Auto Xray OBDI scanners that I use on my 91 C4 that seems to have died. Ive had it at least 20 years and that thing has been a treasure. Im trying to see if it can be repaired. I can't seem to be able to get in touch with the company. Does anyone know if they still exist or know of anyone that can repair these units? Thanks

It's been bought over by Actron and I don't believe they support it anymore. Last time I checked with Actron, they didn't really support the C4. Something since then may have changed but IDK

I contacted Actron customer service when my Auto Xray died. They do not support it or do any repairs on it. I was lucky enough to find an old MT2500 for a good price.
