slick Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 So... I know with obdI, there was plenty of software out there for diy's to do unlimited scans of there vehicle's, realtime diagnotics, delete engine codes, and so forth. What is there for obdII? Basically, what's everyone using, that they like, and where can I get the software and cable? Thanks Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sl3196 Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 I like my ls1m scanner. Its set up for L67/LS1 cars but works with most gm cars. (worked on my 96 cavi fwiw) It deletes engine codes also. http://www.ls1m.com There is also the autotap and a few others that I haven't used.

slick Posted January 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 That looks like it's supposed to be used with a Palm Pilot, which I don't have. Anything for laptop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sl3196 Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 You can get a palm computer program to use with it I think. The palm is only like $30-$40 anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Rockstar Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 That looks like it's supposed to be used with a Palm Pilot, which I don't have. Anything for laptop? See what the requirements are on the Palm Pilot for that software.. If its ANY Palm, type in IBM WOrkPad on eBay.. Palm made several types of Palm III devices for IBM and they are identical to the Palms in every way.. Except they are black instead of the Dk. Gray.. I got one for 99 cents shipped to my door a year or so ago.. I am personally looking for something that uses a laptop or other computer because I want to build my tuning computer into my car somehow.. EDIT: Looking at the LS1m site, it looks like the Palm they show is an older style.. Those go pretty cheap, or the IBM WorkPads I mentioned will go real cheap also.. Good luck Chris! Here are a couple of the IBMs: IBM 1 IBM 2 IBM 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
