tech2 scanner for the home DIYer?
Hey guys,
Anyone have any reviews/recommendations for a decent scan tool for a 5th gen corvette - Ideally one that does GM cars around this age as I have a '97 f body as well. You can get cloan GM tech2 scanners on ebay for reletively cheap, but I'm concerned with the quality after reading this review: http://www.ebay.com/gds/GM-TECH-2-Di...8110787/g.html Anyone have any suggestions for someone who wants to do their own diagnosis and repairs? I know there are cheap bluetooth obd2 scan tools, but my understanding is they wont pull abs and airbag diagnosis/codes for my 97 fbody because it uses a obd1 bus on a obd2 port. NOt sure about the c5 in this respect though. Any input appreciated. |

I don't have any help for you on the Tech 2, but I hope you post what you find out with your new one. I am considering one too. Good luck. |
Will definitely post how I get on with the chinese tech2 scanner. My '97 fbody has obd2 BUT the airbag and abs goes on the old obd1 serial bus which prevents a standard reader from pulling the codes.
Anyway as i'm from NZ it will no doubt take a couple of months to arrive..so ill post results sometime then.. |
ANyone had any experience with MX bluetooth adaptor with GM Enhanced addon? Looks like it supports the ABS,airbag etc systems?
