WELCOME

Thank you for purchasing AutoEnginuity’s ScanTool for

OBD-II vehicles. I hope that our tool saves you a considerable

amount of time and money in vehicle repair and maintenance.

As an avid car fan, I love working on my cars; but before

ScanTool, I was limited by my vehicle’s computer which "hid" the

information I needed to understand the problem. Sure computers

make cars more efficient and lighter; but, they also hide all the

information away in proprietary interfaces.

AutoEnginuity’s ScanTool gives you access to the abundance

of data that any 1996 and newer vehicle provides through the OBD-

II and optional manufacturer interfaces. It will help you determine

what repairs are necessary, and determine whether you can repair it

yourself, or whether it’s something that requires more assistance.

What’s more, AutoEnginuity’s ScanTool allows you to verify that

work you have done—was done properly . Whether you’re an

independent service shop, or simply a vehicle owner, now you can

diagnose a broad range of vehicles, accurately and quickly, with

just one tool.
