What can you do with the OBDCOM?
OBDCOM is a hand-held diagnostic tool that you can keep handy so it is there whenever you need to check your car.  You can figure out why your car is not running right, or why the check-engine light is on, and you can clear the check-engine light.  Using the information from OBDCOM you may even repair your car yourself.  You can also view real-time sensor readings to help you solve more complex problems.  OBDCOM also checks the vehicle to see if it is ready for an emissions inspection, so you know before you take the car in for the inspection.

	Read and clear stored and pending error codes OBDCOM reads engine-related trouble codes, including manufacturer-specific ones.  Error codes are translated into an english description so you don't have to look it up.  Having this information helps you make smart decisions, whether repairing your car yourself, or bringing it to a mechanic.  You will have an idea what is wrong before going to a mechanic, and avoid being ripped-off!  If you do your own repairs, you can avoid buying costly parts you don't really need.
	OBDCOM clears the check-engine light After getting the readings, you can use that information to fix your car and turn off the check-engine light easily.  After fixing the original cause of the problem, if you do not use a diagnostic tool, your car may still stay in "limp" mode.  In other words, it won't run right because it still "remembers" the problem.  Using OBDCOM to clear the errors and the check-engine light restores the car to normal operation after carrying out your repairs.
	OBDCOM tells you if the car is ready for EMISSIONS TESTING Before going to get the car inspected, you can check it with OBDCOM to see if the "readyness" is all clear for the emissions test!
	View and graph real-time sensor data The sensors your engine computer uses to make the car run properly can be monitored in real time right on the OBDCOM full-color screen.  There are many uses for this live sensor information:
	You can use this data to see if a performance modification you have made is having any effect.  For example, after installing a cold air intake system, you can monitor the intake air temperature.  After switching to a free-flowing air filter, you can check to see if your maximum airflow has in fact increased. This data also helps you solve problems, find out why your car is not running right, and zero in on the cause of a problem.  Using the readings or logging them while the car is operated in different conditions can help you pinpoint the information you need to solve rough-running, stalling, poor performance, or poor fuel economy, overheating, or whatever other symptoms your car may have.
