Back with another question.

Hey guys. Thanks again for the responses to my last thread. This question has to do with code scanning. I got the car running Sun. Monday I drove it to work and on the way(about 1/2 way into the 13 mile trip) The check engine light came on, but went off as I got onto the highway and up to 65 mph. On the way home the light came on again but stayed on. Same thing today, both ways. I stopped by autozone to see if they could scan it and they said they couldn't(95 camaro, 3.4), which was what I had thought prior to asking, but had to ask anyway. Both the Pontiac and Chevy dealer service centers charge $70+ just to read a code, not to mention they close about 1/2 hour before I get off work. I am wondering where everyone else goes for this, if it's even possible on that bastardized OBD1 1/2 system, or where I can purchase a scan tool of my own(if they even make them for that). Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the tip tko. I'm definately going to look into it. Only thing I don't understand is how on the same ebay search I got differences in prices of $350+ down to $154.99. It looks like the same exact kits. Just wondering.

Re: Back with another question.

it is the same kit just get the cheapest one if you are gonna buy one.

if it really is 70+ $ just for a code scan then after 2 times you already would have paid for the scanner. plus you can do a whole lot more as stated in my review thread.

and since it reads obd 2 as well, you can scan tons of different cars.

charge your friends 10$ per scan and you'll start to make some money back.

sorry for ranting, it just makes no sense having codes read at the stealerships.
