​What Can Be Hooked Up to the OBD-II Port?

Traditionally, a mechanic would hook up a scan tool to the port to read the DTC. Less expensive scanners would only provide a numeric code, which the mechanic would then look up from the manufacturer’s manual or service website. More expensive scanners provide will provide text error codes.

However, in recent years, there are more advanced tools available for regular drivers who don’t want to have to depend on a mechanic to find out what’s wrong with their car.

One example is the OBDLink SX USB Adapter by ScanTool that lets you read the trouble codes with your laptop.

This device lets you plug directly into the OBD-II port, and plug the other end into the USB port of your Windows laptop.

This transforms your computer into an advanced OBD scanner tool, plus you can even clear the Check Engine light with the OBDwiz diagnostics software.
