Question Will EFILive Scan Tool V7 work on a 2000 Grand Prix??

Seems like from the info on their site, it will work with all late model OBDii vehicles??
Not the tuning tool, just the scan tool.
Really all I need to know is will it read and let me clear DTC's, so i can see why my wife's car is gettin an SES and reset it.

thanx

it should let you read it at least the generic parameters.

just to clarify.. you'll be able to clear the code but not delete them (delete meaning a PCM modification)

Yeah, I figured that. The wife aint gonna let me do any programming on HER car anyways, after she saw the grief I went through last week having to replace my PCM, when I hosed it using LS1edit.
Now that I got EFILive, I assured her there was nothin to worry about, but she said "no way you're hookin up that computer to MY car!!!" All I wanted do is delete a DTC that was set the other day, cause I think the issue that set it is now fixed.
So I grabbed her keys and snuck outside a few minutes ago, hooked the scan tool up, cleared the DTC and all seems fine. She'll thank me later when she sees it worked, and didn't screw anything up.
You hate to see that damned SES light on, even if you know there's nothin' wrong. Nice to know i can scan other OBD2 vehicles and check the DTC's etc.
