Re: OBD2 scanning tool
On some scanners, you can look at datastream. That is the sensor readings to the ecu. You can also activate some stuff like the cooling fan, solenoid, and other emission stuff. But the scanners that I know about like snap on and otc costs four figures and wouldn't recommend for most home mechanics. The scanners that cost cheap can most likely only read codes. On the maxima, you can read the codes without one. So why waste your money.
