PocketScan Plus Provides Critical Information
The Check Engine Light appears on the dashboards of all late-model
vehicles to signal that there is a possible mechanical or electrical
problem that needs to be addressed. The compact and easy-to-use
PocketScan Plus attaches to the automobile's OBD-II port, displaying the
error code involved on its large, backlit display. Three severity
levels tell you at a glance if it safe to continue driving or if
immediate repair is needed. The PocketScan Plus also puts you in touch
with the emissions status of vehicles and allows you to easily review
and erase codes from the automobile.
The PocketScan Plus Can Save You Time and Money
According to a nationwide phone survey, over 20% of all vehicles newer
than 12 years old have experienced a Check Engine Light appearance in
the past 12 months. That’s 32 million automobiles on the road every year
that are signaling for a potentially costly repair. Your time and money
are valuable, and the information provided by the PocketScan Plus can
save you both by telling you if the Check Engine Light is appearing for a
critical reason, or for a less important one.
Be Smarter When You Talk to Your Technician
The PocketScan Plus gives you the information you need before you visit
your auto technician. Not only does it provide you with the code for
the Check Engine Light, but you also receive access to an online
information database that further explains the problem, its severity,
possible symptoms, and common causes--all in easy-to-understand terms.
Being empowered with this wealth of knowledge enables you to visit your
auto technician with confidence.
Easy-to-Use Features and Helpful Customer Support
The PocketScan Plus is compatible with all 1996 and newer vehicles.
Once connected, it automatically links to the vehicle computer,
displaying both Check Engine Light error codes and severity on its large
backlit display. Issue severity is color coded for easy reference:
green for no problems present, yellow for non-dangerous issues, orange
meaning repair at your earliest convenience, and red for a problem that
needs immediate repair. Three large buttons allow you to turn the unit
on and off, read current codes, and review and erase past codes from the
vehicle's onboard computer. A convenient battery backup saves
information in the system, allowing you to continue reviewing codes away
from the vehicle.
Actron makes certain that you will always
have the information you need when your Check Engine Light appears.
Their online database is available 24 hours a day to explain codes as
well as their causes, severity, and symptoms. You can also contact their
toll free phone number for additional assistance. Furthermore, the
PocketScan Plus has a USB port that allows it to be updated from your
computer, ensuring that you will always have correct, current
information to diagnose the vehicles of today as well as those of the
future.
