ScangaugeII an OBDII

[Mopar1973Man]

ScanGauge II is coming out with a USB cable update that allows you to record data nad then download the data to your computer and view it in graph form. Then the 24 XGauges that allow you to program custom gauges. Then ScanGauge II is made in the USA where UltraGauge is foreign made.

How good does it work as a scanner? I got a smarty that is baic in telling me codes. Is this closer to a DRBII tool? I like it and wnat one and if this even fits the drb tool it is an extra +.

Works fine as a scan tool...

It's little more of a scan tool than the Smarty. Other than being able to read PID's. In fact I can't even reset codes on my 05 with the SG, which they claim is common for some Dodge platforms. I have a Y cable in the garage I ordered to run with my Smarty Jr PoD function, but no dice the SJR didn't like the split OBDII signal.

May have missed it, but you have a link to the Y cable?

I am thinking of picking up an OBDII code reader. Right now I need to reset codes in the Cirrus. The prices are all over... from $20 to several hundred. I am very budget minded but buying junk is a bad investment too. I do not plan to leave it on one vehicle (though that might change)... but we have 01 Dodge/CTD, 97 Chrysler Cirrus, 02 Subaru right now.Have any of you guys tried the less costly units & your opinions & experiences good & bad.Many Thanks!!

I would get a scan gauge II and an extra cable. Wire one cable into the rig you use most and use the second cable for scanning other rigs. It at least lets you get a little more out of your money than something that sits on the shelf most of the time.
