Even though I don't have a check engine light on and I only have 77k miles, one day it will and this scanner will tell me what the problem may be. I ran a check and everything came back in normal specs. As Scottie Kilmer says in his YouTube videos, it's not best to bring your car to the dealer or mechanic with a check engine light on and leave it to them to tell you what it might be. He suggests buying a inexpensive scanner (he recommends several) and finding out for yourself first. It might be a easy fix that you can do yourself and save a lot of money. Review: Works great - Nice scan tool, easy to use, informative. I purchased this as a backup and it could actually be a main scan tool. ## Features - [Good News] The latest version of the Thinkobd500 scanner now includes vehicle battery voltage monitoring to help check battery health status.
