I need to get my hands on a scan tool that can do SRS codes on Honda / Asian cars.
Looking for accurate, but cheap. Torque Pro doesn't work for this (I tried).

Any recommendations, before I go and spend a day or two researching candidates? :laugh:

Have you tried Car Gauge Pro? I haven't tried it on Asian cars.

I’ve got an Innova that I’ve used for years for, among others, my ‘99 Nissan.

I’ve got absolutely no complaints.

Not sure what you mean my “cheap” but you can get a pretty nice unit for about $60.

Looked it up, and it won't do SRS. :cry: But thanks for playing :laugh:

Well, my idea of 'cheap' is under $20 USD. But today's research suggests to me that the entry point for a unit that: a) does SRS, and b) actually works -- is at that price point and up.

I have a TOPDON that has yet to not work in any vehicle I try it on. It does ABS and SRS too. Reasonably priced. Also gives you the status of your emissions readiness monitor.
I'm probably going to roll with this one... Autel seems to have a good rep, especially their higher-end units (which this isn't, but it's closest to my desired price point)


Finally... While I was looking, I came across the following... (humour alert)

I'm thinking that tool isn't going to fix those 'in-cabin' conditions...

And I'm kinda wondering how this one works, tbh... 🤷‍♂️
