Welcome! To Sincere Auto Scan INC

We're glad to have you on our site. You are here probably because you are looking for a OBDII Scan Tool also known as "OBD interface", "code reader", or "OBD scanner. You've come to the right place!

What is a SCAN TOOL ?

A scan tool is a device used to access on-board diagnostic information. Scan tools come in many shapes and sizes, but there are two basic types: stand alone and PC based. As the name suggests, stand alone scan tools do not require a computer. However, they typically have a small screen with a minimalistic interface, run only proprietary software with limited functionality, and cost significantly more than comparable PC based scan tools.

PC based scan tools harness the power and economy of scale of modern PCs, and have a number of important advantages:

  • Large, easy-to-read screen
  • Unlimited storage for data logging
  • Wide selection of diagnostic software that can be easily updated
  • Remote data acquisition
  • Cost a small fraction of the cost of comparable stand-alone scan tools

Our PC based scan tools can:

  • Turn off the check engine light, and erase stored diagnostic information
  • Check emissions readiness
  • Read and erase trouble codes (generic and manufacturer-specific)
  • Display real time parameters
  • Record data for later playback
  • Plot data in the form of graphs & maps
  • Display customizable Digital Gauges
  • Serve as a dynamometer
  • Provide a drag strip feature
  • Generate printable diagnostic reports
  • Access manufacturer-specific information
  • Do lots of other cool and useful things

None of the stand alone scan tools available on the market today (even the ones that cost thousands of dollars) can even approach this feature set.

Without software, a PC is just a box with lights. The same can be said about a scan tool: it is only as good as the diagnostic software that works with it.
