Equus 3100 Innova CanOBD2 Diagnostic Tool customer reviews:

No more car mechanic rip-offs for resetting error codes.
Check engine light came on wife's car. Took it to a local mechanic and had it diagnosed and repaired for under $200. He did nothing other than clear the code and told the wife to tighten the gas cap on her next fill up. Within a few days the check engine light came back on again, so the money paid to the mechanic was for nothing. Surfing the web sites I found others had problems and spend much money on their mechanics who were incompetent in resolving OBD2 error messages.
At this point I decided to fix it myself and purchased the Innova 3100. I know nothing about error codes but with the help from Innova technical support, the internet newsgroup, various repair websites, the Haynes repair manual and youtube, I was able to fix the problem. I was also able to pinpoint and fix the problem on my son's car as well when his check engine light came on. How cool is this?
Wow, the 3100 is a very nice unit, money this time very well spend. Couldn't do without it now. I must also add the Innova tech was extremely helpful, welling to spend as much time as needed on the phone to resolve any questions I had and going through troubleshooting procedures with me as well. BTW, you get a real knowledgeable English-speaking technician from Innova, not someone from India with a heavy English accent.
perfect tool
perfect product, easy to use go to website to find where is your plug
[...] and plug it and instantly you will receive a code if your car has a problem. Don't forget to erase old code and after, ride the car and retest it. The first time I was receiving misfiring code but because I achanged the plug the misfiring disappear not the code.
innovia obd2 
this is a very good tool for the money, it comes with all the cables and software to connect to your computer, I did not like the way their software used a web based link that repuired you to enter your vin number and plate number for you car and limit it to 3 autos, I made a complaint to customer service for Innovia and they sent me a different version that is computer based.
I would recommend this to anyone, I hope they change the added software.

This tool does its job.
I am very satisfied with this diagnostics tool. I originally bought it for my 97 import car and I am very pleased with it. The tool reads the failures recorded in the car's computer and displays them on the LCD screen. The tool also offers more in depth online reports for a fee. I did not find this feature useful becuase is not free for one and secondly because it provided a lot of information that I did not know what to do with it since I am not a mechanic, just an occasional home mechanic. Overall the tool works great.
Does what it's supposed to
It does the trick - easy to use and not only gives the OBD2 code but also the name for the code so you have some idea of the problem before you research it.
When I followed the web link through the software for more information, it asked for VIN and License numbers and had some 15+ diagnostic questions. I was expecting a more complete analysis after going through all that, but found it wanted $9.95 for a more comprehensive report that would include possible causes and troubleshooting info, which you can find on other web sites through search engines.
I would have liked the product to include a concise Quick-start guide, and for the users manual to include a list of codes and brief descriptions. I didn't find the documentation to be user-friendly.
If all you want is a tool to read the code, this is the tool for you. To make the results useful, you'll need to research the code on the internet.
