I've had one of these for a while. They work fine. I've used it for the usual ODBC code stuff, "which oxygen sensor needs replacement", that kind of thing. At $100 I think it's a useful product. I gu

Looks like they also have USB to serial adapters available. I don't know if their is anything special about their adapter or if a generic adapter will work. I don't know anything about the company bu

for what it's worth, on our previa there's a button on the display you push. you remove a little plug from the plexiglass over the speedo and push the button with a pda stylus (or paperclip, or whate

I suspect that your oil change light is related to duty cycle parameters which include ambient and engine operating temps achieved during each trip. To my (limited) knowledge, sensors capable of dete

That light comes on every 12-15k miles to remind you that it is past time to change the oil. The oil change tech is supposed to reset that button every time they change the oil. Some cars have a hidd

As others have said, there's some magic incantation. It may be in the owner's manual. The easiest thing to do may be to go bug the people who didn't turn it off in the first place. They're used to it
