Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) obd II question

[2poor4zr1]

I have a Actron CP9035, no idea when i got it. I did a search and the article i found on it was from 1999.



My truck is a 2001 3500 diesel drw. Will the reader work on it, or do i need to uprade to a newer version?



Thanks,

Bryan

I guess the best approach would be to plug it in if the plug fits. But, you don't really need it. Do the "key trick" and read the codes in the odometer. Without bumping the starter, turn the igniton key ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON and read the codes.



Then look up the codes from the list in the 911 forum here.

Thank you



Can you clear codes with the key trick?



The plug does fit in the port.

Obd II works on vehicles from 96 to present. You can clear codes with that scanner.
