The ScanGaugeII is a 3-in-1 automotive computer that combines a multifunction trip computer, diagnostic scan tool, and up to 37 digital gauges in one small package. It connects easily to your vehicle's On-Board Diagnostic (OBDII) port and communicates directly with the vehicle's computer. Not sure if your car uses OBDII or Controller Area Network (CAN)? The unit will automatically determine which system to use and switch to it. The ScanGaugeII works on all 1996 or newer OBDII cars, including gas, diesel, propane and hybrid vehicles, as well as vehicles with the latest CAN systems. A detachable cable allows for easy transfer between multiple vehicles. Its menu-driven operation means there's no need to memorize complex sequences, and no tools are required for installation. Expandable Add-A-Gauge Technology
The ScanGaugeII has been redesigned with expandable Add-A-Gauge (aka XGauge) technology. Add to the original 12 gauges by customizing the ScanGaugeII to monitor up to 25 more--depending on your specific vehicle's sensor design. Four gauges can be displayed simultaneously and can help determine fuel consumption rates, allowing you to adjust driving behavior and save gas. At the same time, keep an eye on coolant temperature, engine speed, and much more in real time. If there is a young driver in the house or friends borrow your car, the ScanGaugeII can record speeds of up to 158 mph and store the information for you to view later, so you will know just how fast your young driver or friend was going last night. If the unit was disconnected, you'll know: An indicator will be displayed in the trip data.  ScanGaugeII mounts easily to your dash.
| Gauges include: - Horsepower
- Fuel Consumption Rate to 1/100th per gallon/liter
- Vehicle speed (MPH)
- Fuel Economy
- Cost Per Mile/Cost Per Trip
- Manifold Pressure (not available on some vehicles)
- Battery Voltage
- Engine Load
- Coolant Temperature
- Throttle Position
- Intake Air Temperature
- Ignition Timing
- Engine Speed (RPM)
- O2 Sensor Data
- Fuel Trim
- Hybrid Battery Charge (for Toyota Prius and Ford Escape)
- And many more, depending on your vehicle's sensor design
 ScanGaugeII makes diagnostics easy.
View Larger | Scan Tool
The ScanGaugeII includes a diagnostic scan tool that can check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), clear the codes, and turn off the "Check Engine" light on 99% of 1996 and newer vehicles. (However, this feature may not work on some trouble codes in Dodge vehicles.) If any DTCs are found, the ScanGauge will show how many there are as well as the codes themselves. Then you can use the Internet or repair manual to find out which is the failed part is, so you can repair it yourself or know what needs to be fixed at the mechanic's shop. Multifunction Trip Computer
Four sets of data are automatically recorded on the trip computer: Current, Today, Previous Day, and Tank Trip. The "current" trip restarts after the engine has been off for more than 3 minutes. The "today" trip restarts after the vehicle has not moved for 9 hours, and the data from "today" is moved to "previous day" when you restart the car, so you don't have to reset the computer every time you begin a trip. "Tank trip" resets when you fill up the tank. It can provide you with "to empty" data and other useful information, which can be viewed any time during the trip. The trip computer also integrates information from the Cost Per Mile gauge. Simply enter how much you paid per gallon or liter of fuel, and the ScanGauge will automatically calculate the cost of your trips as you drive. The ScanGaugeII features 12 individually stored parameters, including:  ScanGaugeII features 63 backlit colors.

- Average Speed
- Maximum Coolant Temperature

Personalize It
A large, high-contrast LCD display makes viewing the information easy, and both the display and keys are backlit and can be set to off, low, or high. With 63 possible colors, user settings, tank trip data, and vehicle settings that are automatically saved, and up to 10 user commands that can be stored and recalled, the ScanGaugeII can be easily customized to suit your needs.

 good readout info, when it works August 28, 2008
C. Santini (IN)
When I first installed it, the side port didn't work, so I pluged it to
the back. I left it in the car, it was hot that day (85F), the display locked up. Then it worked fine for a week. Today it locked up again, so I unplugged it and plug it back again, I got a blank screen, I tried the side port and it worked again. I called the company (manufacture)several times with no answer, I also emailed the tech support, no answer. I am returning it to Amazon.
 More than expected August 27, 2008

The ScanGauge was everything I wanted and more. Once I set it up and calibrated it, it worked great. Like everything else in life if you spend a little time setting it up iniatally it will work great which only takes a few minutes with the manual in hand.
Scangauge 2 August 27, 2008
W. Olson (Grand Ronde, OR United States)
It is a great learning tool for increasing your gas mileage. Using the instant readouts you can adapt your driving strategy to get the most mileage. I'm still working on getting 27mpg round trip to work with my Jeep. Best ever without the scangauge (checking tank to tank) is 23mpg (usually about 21mpg). After getting the scanguage my tank to tank results is now running a little over 26mpg. Jeep Cherokee 4.0liter 5-speed EPA rating 15city 19hwy 17combined.
As added bonus is reads diagnostic codes and will reset your Check Engine Light.
Better than a Pro Link August 27, 2008
J W Taylor (Florida)
I'm a retired Garage/Owner before retirement I sold my business, the sale included all garage equipment, tools which included a Pro Link diagnostic tool.
A few years later I realized I needed to have OBDII scanner after hearing about ScanGauge II, I purchased one. I'm completely satisfied with it and its performance I've been able to used it on two different vehicles, it will do most everything a Pro Link does and you don't have to purchase software for different makes of automibles. 5 Stars and more
ScanGuage is great! August 27, 2008
TS (Gainesville, FL)
I really like this product, it has helped me to watch my quick starts and to stop the "lead" foot. I also have started to use neutral on coasting and downhill to help with my mpg. It has helped me improve my mileage by a couple of miles per gallon just by helping me watch what I am doing.
