Fault Code Reader / Reset Tool


#1

I’m looking to buy a decent, reasonably priced fault code reader/reset tool and was wondering which mfg/models people find to be the most useful? I’d like to find one that can read the codes in the E30 as well as the OBD-II codes in my 2005 325xi, 2002 Cooper S, and 1999 F250. Is that possible? Harbor Freight always has several listed but was wondering if it would pay to spend a couple of extra bucks on something else. Anyone have any recommendations?
Thanks,
Bob

Motronic will blink the codes at you if you turn the key to “on” then depress the accelerator 5 times in succession.

And you can source the codes here http://www.pelicanparts.com/bmw/techarticles/Mult-Code_Reading/Mult-Code_Reading.htm

I didn’t know that. Thanks for the tip.
