Key Features of the AGT MT50 OBD2 Reader
This handheld OBD2 scanner is packed with features that simplify car diagnostics:
-
Read Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs): The primary function of the AGT MT50 is to read and display DTCs. These codes are generated by your car’s computer when it detects a problem. Understanding these codes is the first step in diagnosing car issues.
-
Clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs): Once you’ve addressed the issue causing a DTC, the AGT MT50 allows you to clear these codes. This also turns off the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL), commonly known as the “check engine light,” if the problem has been resolved.
-
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) Status: The reader clearly displays the status of the MIL. This quickly tells you if the check engine light is currently on or off, providing immediate feedback on your car’s diagnostic status.
-
Communication Status Indication: The AGT MT50 provides clear indicators of its communication status with your vehicle. This ensures you know when the tool is actively reading data from your car’s OBD2 system, giving you confidence in the diagnostic process.
-
Read Pending DTCs: Beyond current error codes, the AGT MT50 can also read pending DTCs. These are codes that indicate potential problems that haven’t yet triggered the MIL but are worth investigating.
-
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) Reading: For vehicle-specific information and accurate diagnostics, the AGT MT50 can read and display your car’s VIN. This is crucial for ensuring correct part identification and repair procedures.
Supported Protocols for Wide Compatibility
The AGT MT50 OBD2 Reader supports a range of OBD2 protocols, ensuring compatibility with a broad spectrum of vehicles:
- SAE-J1850 PWM
- SAE-J1850 VPW
- ISO-14230
- ISO-9141
This multi-protocol support makes the AGT MT50 a versatile diagnostic tool for various car makes and models.
Benefits of Owning an AGT MT50 OBD2 Reader
Investing in an AGT MT50 OBD2 Reader offers several advantages:
- Save on Diagnostic Costs: Instead of going to a mechanic for every check engine light, you can use the AGT MT50 to diagnose the issue yourself, potentially saving money on initial diagnostic fees.
- Quick and Easy Diagnostics: The handheld design and straightforward interface make it easy to use, even for those with limited car repair experience.
- Empower DIY Car Maintenance: Understand your car better and take a more active role in its maintenance. Knowing the DTCs allows you to research problems and decide on the best course of action.
