What's the name of this tool and where do i get one? I feel like im the only honda guy that doesnt have one. Autozone?

It's some kind of ecu reading tool or something.. Sorry for the Nub question.

 

go to a parts store, have them scan your car for codes. it's free. no need to buy a scanner of your own.

 

from what i am reading your o2 sensor is bad, right? go to your local part store and pick up a o2 sensor and the socket to remove it. the socket doesn't cost much, as for the o2 sensor, that's a different story!

good luck

 

Go to your local autozone and see if they sell scanners. I think the cheap universal ones are around 100.

If it's OBD-1 you can stick a paperclip in the jumper, turn the key to the on position and count the long & short flashes of the check engine light.

 

Its called an OBD2 code reader, and the **** basic models can be had for dirt cheap. Like $50.

 

 

I told you in the other thread

Also, there is a gren clip by your ecu you stick the paper clip in.</TD></TR></TABLE>

 

You can scan your own codes by using a paper clip, do a search or go to the FAQ. It tells how and what each code means...No need to spend money!

 

If it's the O2 sensor I had to remove mine when I changed the header on my EG. I used a number 21 open wrench and it worked fine. Not sure on the EK though.

 

Sorry, i tried to pull that quote from another thread. It's not my post. I was just curious what tool does that. Now I know, Much appreciated. Sorry for any trouble.

 

The parts store here charges something like $90 to use their computer on our car

 

yeah **** that store.

Works on obd2 as well.

 

no what everyone is saying.. go to autozone.. they loan tools out for free.. you just pay the fee for what it cost.. so in that case if youy decided to keep it.. you payed for it.. but you can take it home.. and when your done with it.. bring it back and they will give you your money back.
