I've seen these cause problems. They make the vehicle computer panic and shut down the data bus. (on top of being unreliable of course).

 

If the price is too good to be true ... it probably is.


click on the "Tools" link at the top of this page to see some decent OBD scanners. Blue driver is a popular entry level choice.
