ScanGauge-II works with all OBDII compatible cars. As there is no comprehensive list of when particular vehicles began using OBDII or EOBD in GCC and MENA, you will want to look for a sticker stating the OBDII Compliance. This sticker will be found either under the hood or inside the door. In general, almost all cars after 2008 are OBDII compliant. If you are unsure, please contact us.
The ScanGauge will clear the codes and turn off the check engine light on 99% of OBDII compliant vehicles.
The OBD2 system in cars provide diagnostic information and allow resetting of the CHECK ENGINE light. It also provides a lot of other operating information. The ScanGauge performs the diagnostics functions like a conventional scan tool. It also goes beyond this and uses the other data to add many more useful functions.
ScanGauge products are made in USA and come with 3 years warranty.
Yes, any newly purchased ScanGauge will include the latest version of software including XGauge.
The OBD2 connector is supposed to be located within 1 meter of the steering column. It is usually under the dash and just to the right or left of the steering column. Sometimes it will have a cover over its face. Other locations are under the dash on the passenger side, under the dash behind the ash tray and in a rare case, under the ash tray in the back seat armrest. The pictures below show the OBD2 plug in a typical location.
