What is OBD II Code Reader Or OBD II Scanner?

OBD Scan stands for On-Board Diagnostic Scan. It was originally used for tracking auto emission from automobile. Essentially, you can plug  Handheld OBD automotive scanners into automobiles located along or on the underside of the dash using OBD cable for a comprehensive diagnosis of the engine. All gasoline powered automobile in the United States manufactured from 1996 onwards are fitted with a plug-in that allows scanning by an OBD II code reader for anything related to the engine or engine troubleshooting. Most vehicles prior to 1996 use the older version known as OBD 1. The differences between the two is that in the case of OBD 1, there is no uniform system in identifying problems associated with the engine failure since each automaker used their own codes and definition.

The development of OBD II  scanner has simplified the problem of identifying engine failure for multiple auto brands by standardizing onboard diagnostic system in all automobiles manufactured from 1996 onwards.

Once the handheld OBDII scanner is plug-in, live data related to your automobile's engine will appear on the scanner's LCD screen. It can also be used to check engine light and provide information on the automobile's fuel injection efficiency and throttle related problems. Most importantly you can check your engine emission status whether it is in compliance with the state mandated smog emission.  

Should there be failure in the engine, such as anything related to oxygen sensor, temperature sensor, throttle sensor, temperature sensor, it will show up and recorded on the screen under DTC or Diagnostic Trouble Code. This is just an indicator giving warning about the engine's fault. However, do not buy any replacement parts just yet because such warning could just be due to a bad sensor or blockage causing abnormal high or low reading. Whether it is a bad indicator or otherwise, it is a good start to discover any real problem with your engine. It is then necessary for a further investigation onto the specific area around the problem indicated before you go out and purchase any replacement parts.
