To use
OBDCOM, you need:
| |
|
| 1. |
A
laptop or netbook computer with
Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows Vista, or XP. Windows 98* and 2000
will work too. All 32 and 64 bit versions of Windows are
supported. OBDCOM plugs into the USB port. Netbook users can download the software and drivers online, or copy
the CD to another device.
If you do not
have access to a laptop, you can borrow one, or use a desktop computer that is within
10 feet of the car with an extension cable.
MAC OS and Linux users: OBDCOM is a Windows application. Please see
our FAQ (the Questions link on the left) for information.

ANY brand, ANY manufacturer, ANY model, except some

| 3. |
We recommend that you get a service manual for any vehicle you plan to work on.
There's also plenty of free information available online, but no repair work should be attempted without a
proper service manual for the vehicle so you know the disassembly procedures
and have access to troubleshooting flowcharts provided by the vehicle
manufacturer. |
