Buying a code reader finally!
 

Can someone recommend a good, reliable hand held code scanner that won't break the bank? I have decided finally 2 take the plunge and buy one instead of borrowing 1 or having Auto Zone do it for me. I have a 98 Blazer 4x4 LT and my wife has a 97 Nissan Maxima so I will need something that can be used on both vehicles... Showing my lack of really understanding scanners, just want 2 be sure whatever I buy works on both of them lol!!! Like I said, nothing super top of the line, just something reliable around the $100 dollar range, thanks for any advice :)

I bought one of these to clear dumb codes like P0410s.

WOW... I had no idea how cheap these things actually are... Thanks for the info :)

I decided 2 buy a Innova 3020 code reader... I was told it would fit both my 98 Blazer and my wifes 97 Nissan Maxima... Works great on my ride but I can't seem 2 get it hooked up properly on her car... Last thing I want 2 do is break and or bend something by pushing 2 hard...

I had an Innova I bought from AutoZone and it was crap, returned it a day later. The Launch one I linked, while cheap Chinesium, is actually quite sturdy and has worked no problem for me. Even came with a USB cable to update the firmware from my computer. I was pleasantly surprised to say the least.

So far the 3020 works great on my Blazer, no issues hooking it up ect, but for whatever reason it is not hooking up 2 her car... I will figure somethng out.
