Has anyone successfully used laptop to monitor their car, 2000-2001 in specific, with some kind of software? There is bunch of posts about this, but mostly for 4th Gen cars. If you do, which one are you using?

Thanks..

 

i use the harrison software from obdscan.net. easy to see and setup. even runs great on my old laptop from college which only has a 266 mhz processor and 96mb of memory. they shipped quickly and i would recommend it.

 

Do you need that protocol converter module, or is it straight connection from computer to car?

 

it will not function without it.

 

I have the Harrison Program and it works well.

 

Is this software very helpful. I am not familiar, could u pls advise. Thx

go to www.obdscan.net to see all the applications and monitoring parameters. you can also order the harrison from that site. i find it great for monitoring and logging information as well checking people's cel lights.
