OBD reader needed near Bel Air
Any of you Bel Air local guys have an OBD reader and know how to clear codes? I got a code on my new car and well, everything points to me being an idiot and not tightening the gas cap properly, but I'd like to clear it out and see if it comes back on its own.
drop me a PM or something. thanks.

the specs at the link you sent me lists that it will only read up to a 2003 for my vehicle mfg. my car's an '06. i think that might be a problem... its weird because i thought all OBDII had to be the same code/read etc. but it lists up to 2005 for GM.

what kinda car is it? If it's an 06 vette then you need something that can do CAN i believe... gotta double check that.
Edit... heres a better answer:
The C6 uses CAN (Controller Area Network) (which GM calls GMLAN) communications rather than the SAE PWM communications (which GM calls Class 2) at the OBD-II port. So you need a scanner that handles CAN. The AutoXray 4000 does, I know some other units that do but don't have a list handy. CAN is being phased in as the standard to replace the old mess of 4 or 5 different "standards", I think its required for 2008 but GM is getting started early with the newer models.
Edit, I dunno why I thought that... 2008 requires that all manufacturers convert over to CAN so chances are whatever your car is (you're being too vague...) is CAN already.

Its pretty much null-and-void now anyays, as I find myself no longer needing to purchase one. I looked at the mfg specs for yours and it said 199?-2003 for Lotus. Thanks for the offer though.
