A great digital multimeter5
I have owned a few multimeters, and even built one when I took an electronics course many years ago. This is the best one I have owned.
This beauty has great features, large readout, and has a protective case to help avoid damage should it be dropped.
One can even strap the meter to your arm during use to have it handy. The instruction manual is clear and concise and the price is right.

Very cool!4
It's a great product for your money.
I use it in my car and the chores around the house.
You have to have one of these units if you are planning to do any electrical work.

If you need a meter.5
I have several meters but this one has it all.
Since I retired this is used mostly for battery checks.
Easy to read and the leads are a nice length.
The speaker and the stand with the wrist band makes it easy to use.

LOVE IT!!!5
It is simple to use, cant use it enough.
Glad i chose it over the 3120. Best product for the money, and then some.

Works great4
Got this unit yesterday.
Worked on both my OBD1 vehicles (Toyota and Ford) just fine. I was impressed with the extra tests for the OBD1 ford EEC.
Just beware those that buy this product, check the compatability with your vehicles before purchase, and update the software on the code reader.
Purchase a usb to serial plug also

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Product Description
The Actron CP9190 OBD II/I Elite AutoScanner Pro Diagnostic Code Scanner is an enhanced scan tool that is loaded with many professional features.
If you are new to diagnostic scanners, this handy tool connects to your vehicle, scans various parts of your car, truck or SUV, and retrieves a list of diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and code definitions from your vehicle's computer.
But even if you're a veteran to scanners and auto repair, you'll be impressed with the new functionality that Actron has added to the CP9190.
This device not only scans your vehicle, it also allows you to freeze-frame live timing and pinpoint your vehicle's problem.
Instead of having to recreate a scenario over and over again, you can now playback the timing to scrutinize all the data and make a clear diagnosis.
Combine this with Internet connectivity and the ability to interface with a PC, and you have a powerful, professional diagnostic scanner in the palm of your hand.
Like its little brother, the Actron CP9180, the CP9190 is compatible with all OBD II (On-Board Diagnosis II) compliant vehicles manufactured in North America, Asia, and Europe from 1996 to the present, but the Elite AutoScanner goes a step further and is even compatible with certain pre-1996 GM, Ford, and Chrysler vehicles.



The Actron CP9190 easily scans and retrieves DTCs. View larger.


TrueLink Technology assures a fast and accurate diagnostic output.


The Elite AutoScanner comes loaded with cables and a hard case. View larger.
In addition, the CP9190 fully updateable via the Internet, so it is designed to accommodate future vehicles as well. The device features a large, graphic, easy-to-read backlit screen that shows the trouble code and its definition. And although you still have to fix the problem that your scanner detects, this device will deactivate the "check engine" light on your dash so you'll no longer be distracted while you drive. Every Actron scan tool and code reader incorporates CAN (Controller Area Network) and the patented TrueLink Technology which guarantees the tool will link to and communicate with every OBD II compliant vehicle. This assures a fast and accurate diagnostic output -- a key ingredient to an effective repair.

The CP9190 is simple and easy to use. The included OBD I/II cables provide both data and power connections, while the USB cable offers a quick and easy way to connect your scanner to your PC.
In addition to connecting to the computer for Internet updates, you'll also appreciate the CP9190's USB connectivity because it makes printing DTCs and other information a breeze. Once the scanner is connected to your vehicle, the user friendly menu provides a variety of information in a snap. This device displays OBD II enhanced functionality with graph data (1996 and newer), O2 monitor tests, state emissions, and even reads, records and displays live sensor data so you know what's happening with your vehicle as you make adjustments.
Other features include an OBD II code library built right into the tool, an OBD II drive cycle mode, battery power so you can review diagnostic data even when the scanner is disconnected from your vehicle, and a trilingual (English, Spanish, French) mode.

Another important thing to remember is that all emission testing facilities will fail a vehicle that has the "check engine" light illuminated at the time of the test -- even if it is only lit to remind you of a past-due oil change or 60,000-mile tune-up.
With this scanner, you can shut off the check engine light and pass the emissions test on your terms. The menu also alerts you of any pending DTCs and reads the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) status. By reading the MIL status the scanner gives insight into what might cause your "check engine" light to turn on in the near future. In this way, the scanner also provides some preventive measures to help you keep a close eye on your vehicle's systems. These functions, combined with the simple keypad used to read, erase, and navigate DTCs, make the CP9180 scanner a perfect solution for identifying problems with your vehicle and keeping you safe on the road.

Review of Actron 9190 4
I found the 9190 to be a great tool. It provides all the data I was looking for and displays in graph form data streems that I was needing to see.
The Snap On scantools are much more exspensive and the Actron makes looking into ones own car service affordable. Thanks Actron

Excellent Product!4
I brought this product twice as gifts for family memebers. This product is very handy and works great.

Actron CP9190 Elite5
Works great. Has already paid for itself in helping to diagnose problems several times. Clear instructions and very easy to use.
All of my vehicles are out of warranty now and I must attempt to repair myself. Being an old shade tree mechanic and not very up to date on the newer systems, this tool has helped me come up to speed.
Most of the dealers and shops around here want at least 75 bucks just for a diagnostic check. At the very least this tool will allow you to see what codes are present and help give you a leg up on those high and mighty service writers at the shops.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good way to set performance baseline for your cazr, January 19, 2007
This product allows you to capture data from the ODBC II port on most newer vehicles. I found it easy to use and I'm the kind of person who will log data from all my cars and keep it for future reference. When the car isn't running right, I'll use the old data for diagnosis. My only complaint is that the CarChip only logs 4 signals in addition to vehicle speed and only a small set of the available signals. I'd rather it log more signals at once. For that, I'd be happy to trade off how long it can log data for more signals. For example, with a Chevy V8 engine, you cannot log the fuel trim for both cylinder banks and all 4 O2 sensor signals at the same time.

Product Description of CarChip OBDII/CAN Data Logger

You'll get complete trip details including: * Time and date for each trip * Distance traveled * Speed (recorded every 5 seconds) * Hard brakings and quick accelerations If the vehicle's check engine light (also known as a malfunction indicator light or MIL) comes on, you'll be able to: * Read the diagnostic trouble code (or DTC) * Get the "freeze-frame" sensor readings telling you the status of various engine parameters at the time * Reset the light Includes data logger, software on CD, and cable for downloading data.

By FordFan (NY USA) - See all my reviews
Very good product. Small, light weight, easy to use unit. We were having difficulty reading codes on a Dodge SRT supercharged truck and this unit out performed a commercial unit that notably was several years old but had recently been software up dated (to the tune of over $1,000). We're planning to try the data log function next time at the track. I highly recommend this unit to commercial and drive way mechanics.

Excellent Diagnostic Device,

By Smart Shopper (Houston, TX United States) - See all my reviews
I plugged this scanner into my Suburban to help me understand why the "check engine" light was on and in seconds it told me that the EGR valve circuit was giving a fault indication. I followed the procedure in the service manual and quickly determined it to be a bad EGR valve. Replacement took minutes. Entire job was over and done with in about 30 minutes counting the time it took to drive to the autoparts store and return. What a timesaver and in the longerun a hughe money saver too!!
