Default Code reader - harbor freight?
This is $49 delivered.

Since I am sick of trying to use complicated PC based code reader software, I would like to consider this simple plug-in device.

Has anyone used these?

Thanks...

I have one and have made so much money with it. I leave it in my daily driver and pull codes for co-workers all of the time (and normally get their repair work too). Best $ ever spent, great product, simple, clears codes,etc.

I have one as well, I saw it in their advertisment and couldn't resist. It has worked wonderful so far; very simple and straightforward.
