Not only is the ET50 able to read all manufacturers-specific codes including domestic, Asian and European, but it is also capable of clearing all pending and current codes. The most troublesome codes, including diagnostic trouble codes of the power train system and the controller area network, are easily exposed with the ET50.

The simplistic compact design and clear LCD display come together to make the ET50 the ultimate super-transportable Code Reader. Complete with OBDII manual and DTC CD of manufacturer-specific codes, this Code Reader also conveniently displays the VIN, MIL status and Readiness Test. All the features and benefits of larger devices, the Mac Tools ET50 Code Reader that retails for only $59.99 is the most affordable, easy-to-use and complete code reader in the industry!
