Code/Scanner

Does anybody know of a good code/scanner, at a decent price, that can erase codes. I have done the key test but need to erase the codes too see if they come back, disconnecting the batteries didn't work for the hard codes PO217 and PO216 I don't need one that is difficult, just one to read codes and erase too see if they come back. Thanks

Go to any generic auto parts store. (Autozone, napa, advance auto, etc.) and they usually have them for under $100. Mine is an actron, gives code numbers (which you can clear as they come up) and also gives the inspection readiness test, egr/misfire etc. as far as complete or incomplete. I think I paid about 80 dollars.

If you are just looking to clear the codes, you can go to one of the above mentioned stores. Most of them have a scanner and will read and clear the codes for you.

My code reader is a locked up superchip flashpaq tuner that is not good for tuning but for $5 at a garage sale will read and clear codes. ED
