Q: Can the V500 OBD2 Scanner turn off the check engine light?

A: Yes! Once you have diagnosed and resolved the underlying issue, the V500 can erase the stored fault codes and reset the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) — commonly known as the check engine light — saving you a trip to the garage.

Q: What is I/M Readiness and why does it matter?

A: I/M Readiness (Inspection & Maintenance Readiness) refers to a set of diagnostic tests your vehicle's on-board computer runs to check emissions-related systems. The V500 lets you check the readiness status of all monitors before your vehicle's emissions or smog inspection, so you know whether it's likely to pass or fail before you go.
