Car diagnostic Scanner

Talkers, how effective are these equipment?

Nataka moja ndio ni avoid kukimbia Kwa mechanics for trial and error as way of troubleshooting problems displayed on dashboard. If this machine can take me straight to where the fault is, then I won’t mind owning one ya between 5k to 10k.

:)Buying a nyundo, saw and nails cant make you a carpenter.

It may tell you what is wrong but that is just the beginning of the probe. Good luck though. I too started that way :slight_smile:

Get a cheap one. 5k pekee

Thanks for the insight

With that budget you can get a generic OBDII scanner which will work OK for basic diagnostics, but for more professional gadgets like the Autel series, you need a higher budget.

They are cheap. The basic ones. Ebay.

Si YouTube inaeza nifunza kuzitumia?

Ebu watch this clip halafu unisaidie kudecide

Hizo amerecommend ndio best because they have more features than the rest

Not true, even the cheap ones are useful, provided you have basic knowledge of repairing vehicles. The cheap ones will be able to read and clear fault codes. You just search the codes on the net, and repair as required.

Case closed

[ATTACH=full]285380[/ATTACH] this the one discount tyres have… how much do u see written ?

jst bcause u learned ku suck kwa youtube, hauwezi somea mechanic youtube

Those things cost as low as $50 on ebay. Information on fault codes generated and correct fixes can be found online.

YouTubers are better mechanics that you will find in a dealership in kenya. Uko nyuma sana.

ukinunua Gari ndo utajua , its holds the other part of your life, u cant gamble with it

my best mechanic hata hana smart phone, hajui google ndo nini, akiskia mgurumo wa gari anasema pale shida iko . he is kidu 50yrs

Those are outdated ones. Ni wale wanaamini kuna mechanic wa chuma, wa wire, na wa computer.

Upusu, hawa mechanic wengine hata hawajamaliza form 4, hawana gari na wame learn umekanika on the job!
