12 best engine diagnostic machines
Engine diagnostic machines, also known as scan tools or code readers, are essential devices used in the automotive industry for identifying and troubleshooting issues with a vehicle's engine and other systems. Here's what you need to know about them:
Purpose: The primary purpose of an engine diagnostic machine is to communicate with the vehicle's onboard computer system (Engine Control Unit or ECU) to retrieve information about its performance, monitor sensors, and identify any faults or error codes.
Components:
- OBD-II Port: All modern vehicles have an On-Board Diagnostics II (OBD-II) port, which is usually located under the dashboard. This is where the diagnostic machine is connected.
- Display Unit: The diagnostic machine has a screen or interface that displays information about the vehicle's status, including error codes and live data.
- Cables and Connectors: The tool comes with various cables and connectors to link it with the OBD-II port.
Functionality:
- Reading Error Codes: The diagnostic machine can retrieve Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) from the vehicle's ECU. These codes indicate specific issues with various systems in the vehicle.
- Live Data: It can display real-time data from sensors and systems, allowing mechanics to monitor parameters like engine temperature, RPM, and more.
- Clearing Codes: Some diagnostic tools have the capability to clear error codes after an issue has been resolved.
- Advanced Diagnostics: Some high-end scan tools offer advanced features like bi-directional control (the ability to send commands to the vehicle's systems) and vehicle-specific tests.
Compatibility:
- OBD-I vs. OBD-II: Older vehicles use OBD-I systems, while most vehicles manufactured after 1996 are equipped with OBD-II.It's crucial to choose a diagnostic tool that is compatible with the vehicle's OBD system.
Types of Diagnostic Tools:
- Code Readers: These basic tools can read and clear error codes but may have limited additional functionality.
- Scan Tools: These are more advanced and provide a wider range of diagnostic functions, including live data and more extensive code libraries.
- Professional Diagnostic Tools: These are typically used by professional mechanics and offer the highest level of functionality, including bi-directional control.
Software Updates: Manufacturers regularly release updates for diagnostic tools to ensure they can communicate with new vehicle models and have the latest error code databases.
Benefits:
- Time-Saving: Helps quickly identify issues, reducing diagnostic time.
- Accurate Diagnosis: Provides precise information about the nature of the problem.
- Preventative Maintenance: Allows for early detection of potential issues before they escalate.
Remember, while a diagnostic tool can provide valuable information, interpreting the data and making repairs often requires the expertise of a trained automotive technician or mechanic.

Powerful Service Functions for Car Repair Maintenance
The POWERFUL service functions include not only all system sensors adaptation, actuation, relearn and resets, but common service maintenance functions (which may vary on different makes and models).
To list some:
---Oil Light Reset: This function is required when you are alerted that your vehicle is due for a service. It allows you to perform reset for a new calculation of Engine Oil Life system once changed the oil.
---EPB: This function is required for maintenance of electronic braking system's safety and efficiency. It allows you to perform the service and maintenance of brake systems, including deactivation and activation of the brake control system, bleeding brake fluid, opening and closing brake pads, and setting brakes after disc or pad replacement on vehicles where electronic brake systems are fitted.
---TPS: also called TBA, throttle body alignment. Using the throttle position sensors in the throttle body, the ECU learns the full open and full closed positions through various states (idle, part throttle, WOT) known as a Throttle Body Alignment (TBA).
---TPMS: Tire Pressure Monitoring System Programming. The service allows you to check the tire sensor IDs from the vehicle ECU and to perform TPMS programming and reset after tires and/or TPM sensors are replaced and/or tires are rotated.
---BRT: Battery Reset. The function lets you to validate new battery, clear faults from the dashboard and display current battery details of the vehicle such as Audi, BMW, Citroen, Peugeot, Seat, Skoda, Volvo, VW and Ford.
---DPF: This function specially works for Diesel Particulate Filter system with DPF regeneration, lets you perform the DPF cleaning to clear the blockage through continuous burning of the particulates captured in the DPF filter. When a DPF regeneration cycle is completed, the DPF light automatically goes off.
---SAS: helps clear the fault steering angle sensor memories and plays an important role in the steering angle sensor calibration.
---CVT: Continuous Variable Transmission, this function is used to reset the compensation code and initialize the ECT after a solenoid valve or valve body assembly has been replaced.
---Odometer: This function allows you to revise the date of odometer and write the original date into new odometer.
---Gear Learning: The crankshaft position sensor learns crankshaft tooth machining tolerance and save to the computer to more accurately diagnose engine misfires. If tooth learning is not performed for a car equipped with Delphi engine, the MIL turns on after the engine is started. The diagnostic device detects the DTC P1336 "tooth not learned". In this case, you must the diagnostic device to perform tooth learning for the car. After tooth learning is successful, the MIL turns off. After the engine ECU, crankshaft position sensor, or crankshaft flywheel is replaced, or the DTC "tooth not learned" is present, tooth learning must be performed.
---Injector Coding: Write injector actual code or rewrite code in the ECU to the injector code of the corresponding cylinder so as to more accurately control or correct cylinder injection quantity.

OBD II Modes of Operation:
Here is a basic introduction to the OBD II communication protocol. Mode byte: The first byte in the stream is the mode number. There are 10 modes for diagnostic requests. The first byte in the response data bytes is this same number plus 64. For example, a mode 1 request would have the first data byte = 1, and the response would have the first data byte = 65. Here is a brief description of the modes:
- Mode 01 – Identifies the Powertrain information and shows current data available to the scan tool. This data includes: DTC set, status of on-board tests, and vehicle data such as engine RPM, temperatures, ignition advance, speed, air flow rates, and closed loop status for fuel system.
- Mode 02 – Displays Freeze Frame data. Same data as in mode 1,but it was captured and stored when a malfunction occurred and a DTC was set. Some of the PIDs for mode one are not implemented in this mode.
- Mode 03 – Displays the type of powertrain or emission related DTCs stored by a 5 digit code identifying the faults. There may be more than one response message if there are more trouble codes than will fit in the data bytes of the response message, or if there are more than one ECU computer responding.
- Mode 04 – Used to clear DTCs and Freeze Frame data. This clears all diagnostic trouble codes that may be set including freeze frame data and readiness monitors.
- Mode 05 – Displays oxygen sensor test results. This mode displays the oxygen sensor monitor screen and the test results gathered about the oxygen sensor. There are ten numbers available for diagnostics: 01) Rich-to-Lean O2 sensor threshold voltage. 02) Lean-to-Rich O2 sensor threshold voltage. 03) Low sensor voltage threshold for switch time measurement. 04) High sensor voltage threshold for switch time measurement. 05) Rich-to-Lean switch time in ms. 06) Lean-to-Rich switch time in ms. 07) Minimum voltage for test. 08) Maximum voltage for test. 09) Time between voltage transitions in ms.
- Mode 06 – Non-continuously Monitored Systems test results.There are typically a minimum value, a maximum value, and a current value for each non-continuous monitor. This data is optional, and it is defined by a given vehicle maker if it’s used.
- Mode 07 – A request for DTCs (pending) from Continuously Monitored Systems after a single driving cycle has been performed to determine if repair has fixed a problem. This is used by service technicians to verify repair was performed properly and after clearing diagnostic trouble codes.
- Mode 08 – This special Control Mode requests control of the on-board system, test, or component bi-directionally (where applicable). This mode is manufacturer specific.
- Mode 09 – Reports vehicle information. This information includes vehicle VIN number and calibration information stored in the vehicle ECUs.
- Mode 0A – Requests Emission-Related Diagnostic Trouble Codes with Permanent Status. This mode is required for all emissions-related DTCs.The presence of permanent DTCs at an inspection without the MIL illuminated is an indication that a proper repair was not verified by the on-board monitoring system.
NEXAS NL101 OBD2 Automotive Scanner Engine EVAP Battery OBDII Scanner PK CR3001 ELM327 Professional EOBD OBD Car Diagnostic Tool
When more than one vehicle control module is detected by the scan tool, you will be prompted to select the module where the data may be retrieved. The most often to be selected are the Power train Control Module [PCM] and Transmission Control Module [TCM].
CAUTION: Don’t connect or disconnect any test equipment with ignition on or engine running.
- Turn the ignition off.
- Locate the vehicle’s 16-pin Data Link Connector (DLC).
- Plug the scan tool cable connector into the vehicle’s DLC.
- Turn the ignition on. Engine can be off or running.
- Turn on the scan tool. Use the "UP/DOWN" scroll button to select OBDII/EOBD from the Main Screen.
- Press the "OK" button to wait for the Menu to appear. A sequence of messages displaying the OBDII protocols will be observed on the display until the vehicle protocol is detected.
- View a summary of system status (MIL status, DTC counts, Monitor status) on screen. Press [OK]
If the scan tool fails to communicate with the vehicle’s ECU (Engine Control Unit) more than three times, a “LINKING ERROR!” message shows up on the display.
- Verify that the ignition is ON;
- Check if the scan tool’s OBD II connector is securely connected to the vehicle’s DLC;
- Verify that the vehicle is OBD II compliant;
- Turn the ignition off and wait for about 10 seconds. Turn the ignition back to on and repeat the procedure.
If the “LINKING ERROR” message does not go away, then there might be problems for the scan tool to communicate with the vehicle. Contact your local distributor or the manufacturer’s Customer--Service department for assistance.
I/M Ready Test & I/M Readiness Hot Key:
The Ready Test can be used as a convenient readiness test tool by automotive technicians to determine if the tested vehicle is ready for an emission test. By visual and audible indication,you will learn a vehicle’s monitors readiness. Repairs to the emissions-control systems of a 1996 or newer vehicle cause the vehicle’s computer (ECU) memory to be cleared. The vehicle must go through a drive cycle to allow the ECU to perform a series of tests to ensure that the repair was successful, and before a state mandated emissions test can be conducted. But how will you know when it is ready? With this scan tool, you don’t have to drive around endlessly and continuously coming back to the repair shop for retest if all required tests by the ECU are completed. And you could also do a quick check of the vehicle to determine if it is ready to receive an emission test without the hassle of connecting your vehicle to the analyzer or having to use a complicated scan tool.In the following cases, this function is especially useful.
- You bought a used car and the check engine light had been cleared to mask potential problems.
- You disconnected the battery for tune-ups and other engine repairs, dead battery replacement, car radio installation and car alarm installation.
- You used a scan tool to clear the DTCs.
- Your car has been sent to repair.
I/M refers to Inspection and Maintenance that is legislated by the Government to meet federal clean-air standards. I/M Readiness indicates whether or not the various emissions-related systems on the vehicle are operating properly and are ready for Inspection and Maintenance testing.
The purpose of the I/M Readiness Monitor Status is to indicate which of the vehicle’s Monitors have run and completed their diagnosis and testing, and which ones have not yet run and completed testing and diagnosis of their designated sections of the vehicle’s emissions system.
The I/M Readiness Monitor Status function also can be used (after repair of a fault has been performed) to confirm that the repair has been performed correctly, and/or to check for Monitor Run Status.
Note: N/A means not available on this vehicle; INC means incomplete or not ready and OK means Completed or Monitor Ok.
CHECK ENGINE LIGHT:
Quickly and accurately to read the engine fault code, built-in DTC look up library to show the DTC definitions,make it easy to determine the cause of the Check Engine Light(MIL), and turn off Check Engine Light by erasing the trouble codes and Monitors reset.
Battery Monitor: NL101 could quickly check the vehicle’s battery health, read out the current battery value and give out 6 levels of warnings for your knowledge:
- A. <10.8V(before Starting): Too Low; Change your battery, otherwise, might not be able to start;
- B. 10.8V-11.8V(before starting): Slightly low; Difficult to start, please turn off other electronics and start vehicle to charge;
- C. 11.8V-12.8V(before starting): Normal;
- D. 12.8V-13.2V(after starting): Too Low; Might not be able to charge the battery, please check other electrical load;
- E. 13.2V-14.8V(after starting): Normal;
- F. >14.8V: Too High; Might damage the battery, please check the engine stabilizer.
Power Supply: The power of the NL101 is provided via the vehicle’s Data Link Connector (DLC). Follow the steps below to power it up:
- Find DLC on the Vehicle: The DLC is the connector where diagnostic code readers interface with the vehicle’s on-board computer and usually located in the driver’s cab. A plastic DLC cover may be found for some vehicles and you need to remove it before plugging the OBD II cable. If it cannot be found, refer to the vehicle’s service manual for the location.
- Plug OBD II cable to the vehicle’s DLC.
One Click "Help" for Data Stream & View Freeze Frame:
- This item enables you to view all data stream items and the live waveform of all selected items.Some data stream have the help information ,press the [?] .
- When an emission-related fault occurs, certain vehicle conditions are recorded by the on-board computer. This information is referred to as freeze frame data. Freeze Data is a snapshot of the operating conditions at the time of an emission-related fault.
Note: If DTCs were erased, Freeze Data may not be stored in vehicle memory depending on vehicle.
Location of the Data Link Connector (DLC): The DLC (Data Link Connector) is the standardized 16-cavity connector where diagnostic scan tools interface with the vehicle's on-board computer. The DLC is usually located 12 inches from the center of the instrument panel (dash), under or around the driver side for most vehicles. If Data Link Connector is not located under dashboard, a label should be there telling location. For some Asian and European vehicles, the DLC is located behind the ashtray and the ashtray must be removed to access the connector. If the DLC cannot be found, refer to the vehicle service manual for the location.

Question: | I have a 1999 chevy crewcab ls2500 4wd 5.7 gasoline v8. will it read transmission codes,will not go backwards. regards, steve |
Answer: | Yes it should. 99 and 2000 model year trucks are notorious for that problem. The problem normally shows up after the truck sits for a week or more. They were leaving the factory new like this. Not sure if there ever was a exact diagnosis to the problem. Usually after idling and warmup for a few minutes and placing the gear selector in and out of reverse it will work, may clunk and jerk. If you research that year you might find some explanations. Other than that if it hasn't sat for a period of time you may look for the transmission code. It's a pressure issue and solenoid. Like I said the 2500 were leaving the factory like that and GM knew about. |
Question: | is there an actual list of what vehicle, transmissions, etc it can read |
Answer: | It actually has a coverage list of vehicles including models and year, you can tell us the spesific information of your car and we will confirm it for you. |
