Computers are an integral part of all modern vehicles, especially when it comes to determining necessary maintenance through on-board diagnostic (OBD) codes. The Innova 3150 CanOBD2 + ABS Diagnostic Code Scanner from Equus is an affordable and easy-to-use tool for any do-it-yourselfer or amateur mechanic who needs a quick and easy way to determine why the "Check Engine" light is illuminated on 1996 and newer cars, light trucks, mini-vans and foreign and domestic SUVs.

In addition to providing crucial OBD2 code information, the 3150 also features anti-lock Brake System (ABS) diagnostic functionality to troubleshoot problems with ABS solenoids, ABS pump motors, brake switches, control modules, speed sensors and more on most 1996 and newer GM, Ford and Chrysler vehicles. If your car has either a check engine or ABS light on, you don't have to reach into your toolbox for two tools; the 3150 will do both jobs. Combine this with the unit's Internet connectivity for software updates and the ability to interface with your PC, and you have a powerful, professional diagnostic ABS + diagnostic tool right in the palm of your hand.

All-in-One Screen and One-Push Button Functions Handheld diagnostic tools should put all the information a user needs right in the palm of your hand, but too often other models bury this data within the device, requiring you to navigate through multiple menus to find what you want. The 3150 in different. Using a combination of its patented all-in-one screen, that allows for viewing 25 pieces of vital information in three languages--English, French or Spanish--all at once without having to search through multiple menus, and single-button function access, users are guaranteed quick, efficient access to data they need.
Patented Emission Status LEDs Over 30 States now use an OBD2 based system to check for emissions readiness, making it more important than ever to be aware of the status of your vehicle and to keep it running in top condition. With this in mind the Innova 3150 has been designed with the ability to read the exact same emissions information as these state-required tests do to see if you will pass the first time around. Built around a simple color-coded system where Green = Pass, Yellow = Potential Problems and Red = Fail, users are able to quickly diagnose potential emission issues with the 3150. Other tool manufacturers charge over 0 for this feature alone and a separate tool has to be purchased, but the 3150 includes this with the price of purchase.
Additional Diagnostic Resources at Canobd2.com The Equus Innova 3150 also comes with access to RepairSolutions through canobd2.com. RepairSolutions allows users to take control of vehicle diagnostics by providing you with the complete solution as to why your "Check Engine" light is on. A basic report is provided free with your scanner purchase, with a comprehensive analysis available for additional purchase.
