I was looking on Atlantic British's website today and found this. Has anyone used this before? I have a few warning lights on and I want to find out whats causing them, fix the issue, and clear the codes out. Any help would be great, thanks.

lol, well i havent used THAT one, the one i used was an actron (i think) obdII reader....they are good for clearing check engine (service engine light is usually just emissions, and there is a module under the passenger side kick panel that says emissions, you can just unplug that--on the disco 1s that is, dunno about the IIs)....anyway, you can get some generic codes off of it, so yeah, for a hundred bux its worth it....now if you have a lot of money, you could just find some software for your laptop so you can plug your truck in, but thats gettin expensive...what i usually do is go to the anti-car place known as autozone, and rent an OBDII scanner---its like 180 bux, you can 'rent' for as long as you like, and you can return it and get your money refunded, so its like a buy/lease type agreement....

 

Ok, nice. Thanks for the info

 

Along the same thought lines I ordered a ProScan It's less expensive but you need to have a laptop to hook it up to however it does much more than just read OBDII codes.

 

I got that one from AB it works great. Kinda hard findin the codes have to look up 'em up on the web
