Equus 3130 Good Code Scanner- Gotta Read the Manual!

Very good and capable scanner for the money. Keep in mind that this scanner best interacts with GM Ford/Mazda and Chrysler vehicles. What does that mean? It means manufacturer-specific codes, not just generic ones. Real time data and enhanced code reading is also a benefit of the manufacturer specific feature.

The use of the buttons/navigation with the scanner isn't the most intuitive, so you must read the manual to ensure you take advantage of the scanner's abilities.

I would buy it again, but I will admit i'm disappointed that the product information from Equus/Innova doesn't specifically tell you that GM, Ford/Mazda and Chrysler reap the most benefits from the tool. I also own a BMW, so i'm disappointed I can't use the tool for all codes/diagnostics associated with the BMW.
