Fault Code Reader ???

[craig79]

Does anyone know of a fault code reader that works for newage

impreza's ? Would certainly be a handy bit of kit []

Yep. I've got one..  Well not a proper code reader but something better and probably cheaper.. 

 
Easy enough to use..  Get yourself a Openport cable from Tactrix.com Note will cost about £80 by the time you addon customs charges and take about 10 days for delivery..

Then download some free software for your laptop/PC called ECU Explorer (there are other bits of software but this one works well and its legally free)  And that's pretty much it!  Managed to clear an ECU code on my bugeye just the other week.  Really handy bit of kit.  Currently working on my own PPP style remap for my WRX [] In which case the cable will pay for itself..

Al,

Appreciate the input mate, was kind of looking for something off the

shelf, ideally from the uk [*-)]. Have come across this :

Has anyone had any experience with this reader ?

Hi  not sure if this helps but i just bought a scangauge 2 it works from the port under the steering wheel works on all cars that have it, obd2 or something like that and it can display 4 readings from the ecu aswell such as boost in psi though, rpm, speed, water /air temp/ injec etc also has some funky trip computer built in to show mpg/avg speed top speed, tank use etc..

and it find fault codes and clears them..
