Actron CP9575 Auto Scanner Does what it says it will do.
Actron CP9575 Auto Scanner Does what it says it will do.
This product does what it says it will do . I need it to check and erase codes and reset the light. it does it all. I have a Toyota Camry, the only down side is the tab that is on the rear of the adapter that is in the car itself. when you plug the scanner in the tab which is male locks the female side of the plug into the adapter. To extract you must lay on your back and look to the rear of the adapter and you will see the male, adapter tab which has locked it self into the plug. You must push in on the tab and extract this way. Or just cut the bridge at the bottom of the scanner making the whole locking device useless then it will slide in and out with ease. Im good with it well made and works well.

Actron CP9575 VERY GOOD!
Actron CP9575 VERY GOOD!
Works no every car I tried it on 1996 HHR, 1997 Dodge Caraven, 2008 Honda Civic, 2006 Ford Mustang GT, 1996 VW Jetta. Connected in a timely manner and read the codes no problem. The live data feature separates it from a basic reader and is very useful to diagnose how the engine is is functioning.
Bottom line is it's worth the money and it does what it claims, as advertised.

Actron CP9575 Auto Scanner Great Value, Good Design, Does what it says
Actron CP9575 Auto Scanner
I have used a lot of scan tools, everything from $12,000 Snap-On units to $25 E-bay garbage.
Let me tell you - this is neither of those tools, BUT:
If you want, easy to use, easy to understand, quick link, and CAN and Early OBDII capable - this is your tool.
Great for times when you just need to get a code, check what monitors have run - or get a little more in depth with real time data. Its a little laggy, but its NO WORSE then any other scan tool out there - fact is the OBDII standard is just slow with real time data. Its quicker then our OTC Genisys unit - its about as fast as a Snap-On Solus scanner when it comes to data updates.
Shows freeze frame data as well - along with monitor status updates (as you drive).. self powered off the OBD II socket.
Id I had one only gripe - it would be that the buttons are a little too sticky - and they get stuck in the case. But for $99, self power, real time data, decent screen, and up-datable - I'm not complaining at all.
I have scanned:
2001 Audi A4, 2005 Nissan Xterra, and a 2009 VW Rabbit with it so far.
Its small and light - backlit screen. Well worth the money saved from dragging out the bigger units, or a laptop to the car.

Actron CP9575 Works as advertised
I've used this product twice so far; once on a 2003 Nissan Altima and once on a 2003 Chevy Trailblazer. It worked great both times. It does what it's supposed to do and it is easy to use. It quickly diagnoses the problem and provides an error code. Highly recommended.

Actron CP9575 Simple and Effective
Actron CP9575 Simple and Effective
After my car showed its first check engine light I wanted to know what the car needed. Since I'm overseas, the local shop did not wanted to chack my car because it was "too new". I started checking for a decent scanner to see what was wrong with my vehicle. I found this item here and got it in about a week and a half. Instructions were plain and simple. Connected the device to the car, read the code (it was a loose fuel cap) and cleared the error after I fixed the issue.
There, that could have costed me more than the cost id this item so it has already paid for itself.

Actron CP9575 BEST PRICE
Actron CP9575 BEST PRICE, Quality product.
I purchased this OBD2 scanner because I wanted to be able to diagnose problems with my car at home, rather than having to go to Autozone every time. I opted for this model because I wanted to do more than simply pull codes. I've used it once on my Toyota Avalon and was able to get the code, its description, and erase it. It did not pull the VIN number for this car, but it said that not all cars are compatible. I like that it is backlit, so I can see the screen clearly. The state emissions check utility is also useful.
Only problem I came across was when I downloaded the software, and connected my device, it was unable to find it when looking for an update.
I recommend this product for everyone who is comfortable with working on their vehicles.

Actron CP9575 Scanner Works Perfectly!a
It is a nice inexpensive product. It works like it was advertised. I used it on a 1996 Chevy Impala, and it worked perfectly for diagnosing the problem and erasing the error code. I also used it on my Pontiac G6 just to see the sensors in action. Plus, I hooked it up to a 2003 Lexus and it diagnosed the problem perfectly and erased the error code.

Actron CP9575 REVIEWS
Actron CP9575 Worked as expected.
Since getting out of the auto repair business and only working on my family's and my cars I needed an ODB2 scanner and finally got around to getting one. This is by no means a snap-on scanner but it does do the job of resetting the codes and showing sensor read outs although there does seem to be a bit of a delay in updating sensor info.
As other reviews have stated the keys feel like there going to stick but they haven't gotten stuck so far and the cord is a bit short but that's not really an issue for me since I don't plan on driving around with it plugged in. I haven't had it long but it seems pretty durable. I'll update this if I have any problems.
For the money you can't go wrong paid 99$ and that included shipping, so far I'm very happy with it and would recommend it to any backyard mechanic.
Actron CP9575 It Dices It Slices! It scans codes!
Does this thing scan codes? You bet it does! Does it clear codes? You bet it does! It has a backlit screen which is awesome! The software is super easy to use!
I might recommend an extension cable depending on where the OBD II jack is located in your vehicle. I'm not saying the cord is short, it works great in my Volvo in which the jack is located under the arm rest.
Actron CP9575 pretty impressed.
works good for the money. quality seems a bit low, but function is good for price... would recomend this product for backyard mechanics and entry level techs,
have not used it extensivly so time will tell if quality is an issue
Actron 9575 works perfectly.
Product works perfectly and is shipped as described.help me solve a good amount of problems with my car. recommend this product if you are getting a check engine light.
Actron CP9575 Auto Scanner VERY GOOD.
Very good buy, Small, compact but screen is more then large enough to read clearly. Worth having instead of paying a mechanic or going to a parts store to read a check engine light code.
Actron CP9575 Scanner Good for the home mechanic.
Overall this unit worked as expected on my 2000 Toyota Tundra and 2004 Toyota Sienna. Relatively self explanatory to use and the manual covers the rest. My only issue is with the cable. First off, it is a little too short. You either have to place the unit on the floor or on the driver's seat or lap. The cable is not long enough to set up on the dash or really anyplace farther away than the driver's seat or transmission hump if you have one. The other complaint is the stiffness of the cable. It is pretty stiff and if it is cold at all, you won't be able to straighten it out very well. Not a huge issue really, but since it is already short, all the bends make it even shorter.
Overall, a good product for the occasional user or home mechanic.

I purchased this scanner because it was one of the least expensive scanners that could read live data. My 2003 Subaru WRX was throwing error codes related to the O2 sensors and I wanted to see their voltages. I plugged it in and it worked just fine showing the data I wanted to see. I have 2 other vehicles a Toyota and a Mazda that I plan to use it with, but I have not plugged it into either of them yet. The unit feels a cheaply manufactured so hopefully it will prove reliable. Kudos to Amazon for fast shipping, it arrived in just a couple of days. I have not uploaded the latest software, and don't plan on it unless I need to.
