ANCEL AD310 Classic Enhanced Universal OBD II Scanner Car Engine Fault Code Reader CAN Diagnostic Scan Tool, Read and Clear Error Codes for 1996 or Newer OBD2 Protocol Vehicle (Black)

Works great. I spent a few minutes going through the instructions and plugged it in and easily read what my error code was. Simple to clear the error. Basically a good value for the money and simple to use and understand.

This is great. It is a great price and instead of just giving the error code, it gives the actual problem. It's very easy to use, diagnose, and operate.

The ANCEL AD310 Classic Enhanced Universal code reader is a fantastic tool for anyone who wants a simple, reliable way to diagnose check engine lights. Right out of the box it’s intuitive — just plug it into your vehicle’s OBDII port and you immediately get clear codes that help identify issues without confusing menus or jargon. The display is easy to read, and the unit feels solid and well built. It reads and clears codes quickly, and it supports a wide range of vehicles (1996 and newer). I like that it shows definitions for the most common codes right on the screen, which saves time compared to looking them up later. For the price, this scanner performs as well as many pricier models. It’s perfect for DIYers and car owners who want to understand what’s going on before going to a mechanic. If you’re looking for a no-nonsense, reliable OBDII reader that does exactly what it should, the ANCEL AD310 is a great buy. Highly recommended

The Ancel AD310 is a little glovebox-friendly code reader that delivers on its basic promises: reading engine and emission codes. It's also made properly and ergonomically. That said, here are its pros and cons I noticed as a DIY mechanic. Pros 1. Built properly and will likely stand the test of time. 2. While the display is basic black and white, it's offered in a manner that is pleasing to the eyes. 3. A small size helps the code reader fit into gloveboxes and center consoles, even for small vehicles. 4. A code library helps with strange codes & 5. There's the live data function, which, though limited, is great for DIY tasks, especially for the home mechanic. Cons 1. The keypad is non-intuitive and needs getting used to. 2. Codes aren't explained. You'll need search engines to understand some, if you're not a professional. 3. Options like the Auto VIN feature are missing. There's a workaround for this, though. Summary The code reader connected with Asian, American, and most vehicle types, including German vehicles I tested it on. It also read the codes and deleted the same at my instance. Going with the build quality, I'm sure it will last a while. However, I'm giving it 4 stars because it skipped some basic options like a color display and a comprehensive code library. If these aren't issues for you, it's hard to get a better code reader at the price point of the AD310.

Just got it in the mail - feels like a quality product. I immediately plugged it into the car with no issues. Instructions were easy to follow and the accuracy of which it read the code was impressive. I finally know what part I need and I was also able to clear the code. It connects to any car, because I used it to help a friend as well. The price is SO worth it. I would have paid $100+ just to get this done at a dealership.

The ANCEL AD310 does exactly what a basic OBD2 scanner is supposed to do: read and clear engine fault codes on 1996+ vehicles. It powers directly from the OBD port, requires no batteries, and is simple to navigate. For checking a check-engine light, pulling a code, and clearing it after a repair, it performs reliably and consistently. That said, it’s strictly entry-level. It does not offer advanced diagnostics, live data depth, ABS/SRS access, or manufacturer-specific modules. The screen is basic, and the cable length is adequate but not generous. If you just need a no-frills tool to confirm a code before deciding on repairs, it’s fine. If you expect deeper diagnostic capability, you’ll outgrow it quickly.

Perfect scan tool/code reader. Price is better than most especially for the quality and ease of use. We have x5 vehicles and have purchased one for each car and the 3 trucks. Nice to have in the vehicle when/if needed. Easy resets get home or to the repair shop and easy to check after repairs are made that the problem/s are corrected and no longer an issue. Have tried other brands but this is perfect for everyone, with or without mechanical experience. Plug and play device.

Awesome tool for a great price. Works well for my 2019 Jeep Wrangler JL.
