i have a OBDII reader that I plug in to the truck and blue tooth to my phone they are like 20 dollars https://www.amazon.com/BAFX-Product...hy=9018907&hvtargid=pla-405660976208my 2004 GMC 1500 has an evap system relay that doesn't read fully open or closed from time to time. I bought the truck used from my local tire shop they replaced the relay 2x even tried the new updated relay valve I drive with the light on now it isn't hurting anything , I clear ait and check to see if any other codes from time to time the tool is handy and worth the 20 dollars Can u rely on a $20 dollar code scan tool to give u accurate read ? If so, I interested , the one at shop probly at least $150 or more , Bcause if ur going run with check engine lite on, it be nice check out on occasion to see if anything new happen, my tps is on in cold weather as well as air bag sensor or lite on, just hope in future the low fuel lite don't start go on all time on dic ORielly's will put a code reader on it for you for free, they can turn off the light after reading the code as well.

ADC they will but when the nearest ORielly's is 20 miles away you can see where having your own pays for it's self
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Wouldn't it just be easier to just constantly wonder & worry about things, rather than listening to sound advice?

I offered the advice on the chance someone has similar issues and happened to see my post. Dave almost never takes my advice. Perhaps a piece of black tape over the light???

Go out and lift your hood. Unhook the battery for a minute and hook it back up. Alit of times that will clear codes and shut the light off. Sometimes it dont Take off the battery terminals and hold them together for 30 seconds and it will clear the codes and take off the light.

I've given plenty of good sound advice. And like everyone else I feel it falls on deaf ears. And yes with the way things are going it could take months to get a radiator. I'm not saying that's your situation but it's possible.
