Hello,

I have a 2003 Vue that is "crank/no start" with Throttle Actuator Control faults (looks like it may be throttle body cleaning or part replacement).

I am going to fix the car myself and am looking into which OBDII scanner to buy. Right now I am looking at either the Actron CP9180 or the Equus Innova 3130. I've read that Body

Control Module faults can't be checked with the Actron CP9180 but I don't know whether to believe the individual or not. I've read that neither is effective in powertrain fault coding (for

instance - supposedly it can't erase faults) but I don't know if I believe that either. I don't know what the best unit would be for the type car and the type repair, please advise me.

Thanks,

Dean

Find one that reads the BCM as well as the EMC

thanks for the response, I have used that information to guide my search

which did you end up getting?

What about a Used OTC Enhanced? I believe that has OBDII capabilities as well as some data logging abilities.
