Innova 3100 OBD 2 Instructional Video [REVIEW]

[@connor.f12]

Batter test wasn’t “a waste of time”. That tells you if you have a good or bad battery so you know if it’s your battery or alternator or starter. It’s actually helpful if you know what you’re doing🙄 you should’ve just got the basic one that’s a third of the price if you don’t know what 75% of that stuff does

Shut up you id10t. Probably a m0r0n Biden voter

[@voidisyinyangvoidisyinyang885]

It DOES HAVE LIVE DATA - that CEOR option in your Ford OEM is the LIVE data!! thanks

[@misterstealth9237]

I have the Innova 3100j and I don´t have the "System Tests" option in my scanner... Can I get a free software upgrade online?

[@dansorrell4113]

Thanks now I know what all the button do.... Grate job

[@403Mech]

does this scanner read oil pressure?

[@vasi3969]

Thanks for doing this video. I was using it on my 2007 ram and it was showing me that I had a cylinder one misfire. After I realized the scanner did not have batteries inside so I do not know where that code came from. The engine is running rough so I hope it is something else. Just wanted to say thanks for mentioning about the batteries. Great video for a stupid guy like me. 😂

[@WilliamVG]

Need a scanner because my car won't start, now this scanner tells me the scanner only works when car is running, nice.

[@michaelw7932]

You don’t have to have your car running, just in accessory mode (when the lights are on the dash, and you can still play music but the engine is off). If you can’t get into accessory mode, your battery is dead/bad

[@rubenvarela4077]

@@michaelw7932 does work with out car running

[@FurryWrecker911]

ABS didn't work because that's a separate plug and module in the car. Enhanced is for doing diagnostics while driving around the block, or doing active troubleshooting while the system is energized or running.

[@joeldokken5690]

separate? I thought it was all the same port but just talking to a different module on the canbus

[@FurryWrecker911]

@@joeldokken5690 It's been a while since I made this comment, but I learned that it varies from car to car and year to year. In my Tbird the ABS diag is on a completely different diag plug in the trunk liner. My Silverado and Focus though talk through the CANBUS.

Hi ! Do have any idea about this two codes p0171 and p0174 ??? What is the reason for those two codes?? My car have the same code .. do you have any idea ? Thanks 😊

[@justjoshin5140]

Google or search KZbin for it. I’m pretty sure the codes mean the same thing for all vehicles

[@josephcarroll6356]

Lean condition, either too much air or not enough fuel for the ratio. Could be a vacuum leak somewhere.

Thanks for the info.Are You able to do abs testing with this scan tool?

[@BrianFowlie]

Same, are you able to abs bleed?

[@davidnewell9358]

You need to be able read your battery voltage, you need a minimum of 12.5 volts. For most vehicles computer systems work off a 5 volt reference. This is needed for accessing proper information and function of the computer. So if your charging system malfunctions your still able to operate vehicle till battery voltage is depleted. Most vehicles properly working charging systems have an output of 14.5 volts when running. On a starter load test battery voltage must not go below 9.6 volts before you replace the battery. Check all battery connections and body/chassis grounds before testing.

[@coache1nine]

I have this scanner and never use the battery check option. I use my volt meter to check battery, starter, alternator conditions.

[@rashiddorsey1642]

Who's "letting you choose"? hahaha. Thanks - best vid so far on this Innova scanner! THANK YOU for telling me that I have to "turn on the car" - this is not explained in ANY of the other INnova 3100 reviews or "educational" vids or even the manual. The manual's a joke! I searched "running" and "engine" etc. total b.s. -

[@FurryWrecker911]

Which is odd because their Ford OBD1 manual has entire "before we begin, we need to teach you what KOEO and KOER mean" section.

[@voidisyinyangvoidisyinyang885]

@@FurryWrecker911 thanks for reminding me. I just had a "general misfire" code and it started as "cylinder six" and then ended as "cylinder six." I replaced all the spark plugs and cleaned out the spark plug wells - still had "misfire general" code so then I replaced all the ignition coils - problem FIXED!! I think it was cylinder six ignition coil - if I had done a scan with the car on and done live data - but idling the car was just too damaging. I still need the new catalytic converted welded in but my fuel economy is not that bad once the car heats up. I put in Liquid Moly and boron nitride as an extra half quart to the usual 7 quart oil - and the molybdenum got sucked into the spark plug wells as some kind of metal magnetic induction effect - sucked right past the piston rings or else the valves. Pretty wild.

[@lilark4201]

I have this scanner and it literally has a live data feed

[@bigdeek4427]

My car turns on but I can’t give it gas when I press the pedal. All I can see on the scanner is that it’s not working lol how do I enter the codes to fix it?

[@LifeOnInCline]

Have you got help yet elsewhere? It should scan your engine light, then show you codes ex. P1401, or P1001. Then type it into Google to see an explanation on what that code means

I'm not a mechanic, but let suppose my fuel pump is dead, how do I pull codes to diagnose if it's the pump? Do I just have to get a pressure gauge replace fuel pump then hope the car turns over? Or is there a way to pull a code for fuel pump failure in acc mode.
