Actron CP9690 Provided by Bosch
I have this same one. Probably bought it from watching this video before. It doesn't do "all system", like the 9695, but I got it because it also does OBD1, and had an old truck. Have gotten a better one since, but keep this one around in case I ever run into an old OBD1 vehicle again. Thanks for sharing.
I have that feature but it dosent show anything or do anything
Throller body relearn
Does it scan OBD1 Ford/Lincoln ABS codes? Like that of the factory Rotunda Super Star II scanner.
Greetings. One question. Can you reset the PCM with this tool. Thankx in advance.
Thanks man.. i had no idea what that was.
I just fixed my last code error and watch two monitor's clear on way to work today. One to go.. O2 heater
Funny: I just discovered that feature in my Actron yesterday. I'm like, "I thought you were just a code reader!" She's pretty handy– better if it had hands to do the work too.
how do you get to that spring how do you use it can you show us the screens in the steps of click to it
hi eric will this tool suit my 94 silverado 5.7 tbi .. great channel subscribed ages ago … rc from nz
would this be a good tool for a gmc envoy…i am old school
Stop and get a smoothie the protein drink That smoothie at the Smoothie King
Eric the Car Guy independent
Brilliant vid… thank you!
I want to buy pre-owned under $100. any one can help?
Every guy should keep one of these in their cars and test on the road like on a trip to check for problems occurring while driving.
I would like to see blue driver vs autron 9690
I watched one of your vids. and it showed the coolant temperature and other readings on a EEC-IV Ford OBD I so I ordered one from EBAY. It does more than my Snap-on scanner! Thanks!
that scanner can perfrom injector coding?
Do you have any idea which code reader tool might be best for Ford Transit Diesel Van for code reading and as a diagnostic tool? Reading various modules etc seeing live data? What would you recommend
Please make a video on how to do a drive cycle
Hello I bought a CP9690 and want to do live data to catch warning lights on a 2014 Ram Promaster, I have two lights going off intermittently, dealer says they can not fix it cause the code is not registered, its a air bag sensor and rear back up assist, can you do a video on how you would use the Actron to check codes or how I would use it to catch these codes while the vehicle is in motion.
What do you think of the CodeConnect feature?
Does the scanner do anything with abs sensor lights on the dash or read the codes?
i have a question no body can seem to answer and it's came in twice at my shop now. I'll be honest, i did a lazy diag but it was a fairly easy one. Vehicle stalled out & only cranks, when you spray carb cleaner in the breather it'll start for a sec then die out. you'd automatically think fuel problem correct? turns out after replacing the fuel pump & diagnosing fuel I'm like wait, what if this isn't even a fuel problem. check spark, zero spark. my question is if its getting fuel with no spark, then how on earth does spraying carb cleaner get it to attempt starting. long post but please answer. thanks!!
That scanner looks very similar to the OTC 3211 and Bosch 1300. I bet all three scsnners are made by the same manufacturer then covered with the different companies color scheme and sold as one of their products.
Eric DYI question I have a Acer Laptop, is there a good software package that can be run showing the data stream using the OBD connector. I have an old scanner that will sacrifice its connector if I can use the Laptop. I also hope to win the Actron tester🤔
I do like that feature.
curiosity question. I used to have my NYS inspection license and I know the rules have changed a lot since the 90's. since you had to do a drive cycle before the car can be issued a sticker you are obviously driving it without a valid inspection. How do you deal with the law enforcement if you get stopped for an out dated sticker.
Looks like a pretty sweet tool for the DIY'er . Unfortunately for me, with a Land Rover LR3 in the family I don't think it gives me anything other than bare OBD2 for that truck, and I only want to invest in 1 tool.
this makes my CP9190 look a bit lame 🙁
I always use the drive cycle monitor on mine also 🙂
Do you do a smog test in NY.
What is the drive cycle?
What "inc" means on the right side of the scanner monitor?
with my luck never winning anything i doubt i will win one
Eric to the O,
Happy papa day dude,
New subscriber from Tx. and total respect in the fact that you northern mechs, have to fight the salty cold winter like
yall….. do.
God Bless and peace out!
cool function. HAPPY FATHERS DAY
ICE CREAM RUN=DRIVE CYCLE
easypeasy Ahem.Mr O. neat tool dedicated as ever. cheers. for the run down.
Happy fathers day Eric.
eric o come man actron i want a snap on
What I'd love to know is does it really provide enhanced obd2 data like the verus/maxisys/encore? can you do a comparison video on the same car?
Cool feature. Hope I win one!
HAPPY father day Eric.
I have to say that you are the best Youtuber for the DIY automotive people out there right now. If there were more independent shops out there like yourself. We as mechanics (been turning wrenches in a dealership for over 25 years) would have a much better reputation. People watching Eric's channel, this is the type of independent mechanic I and anybody else would want to find when they retire. Keep up the great videos and thank you for taking the time for making them for us. Happy fathers day!
Eric O, thanks for the video. great demonstration! that's great to know. I have el cheapo obd2 scanner. not as many features like you have. But I like yours! Happy Father's day, Eric O!!!
Hmmm pretty cool little scanner,I believe that Bosch makes That exact same scanner,or is it OTC,Dont Know ??????
Perfect-Thank you for sharing that with us and yes, excellent feature. Great example BTW.
Thanks for sharing and hope you have a great fathers day
I have the CP9690 also being a DIY'er it comes in very handy. Full on reviews can get How can I say this nicely boring, But key features like this are very cool. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into these top notch Videos
I think for the price of this Actron you can get an Autel with more features. Thx for video ERIC.
