ANCEL JP700 JOBD OBD2 Japanese Car Scanner, JDM Automotive Code Reader, Check Engine Light OBDII Diagnostic Scan Tool, fit for Toyota Nissan Honda Mazda Subaru Vehicle Diagnosis

I needed this device for a Japanese imported car which does not accept the usual ODB 2 system, instead needing JODB. The scanner worked without any issues whatsoever, quickly and easily showing all relevant information. I was also pleased that it not only showed what the fault code was, but also explained what the code means (which another device I have does not use). I now use this device for my Volvo as well as the Japanese car as it is not limited to JODB. The scanner is nice and rugged with rugged grips, so no fears of it being damaged.

I bought this Ancel JP700 purely on the basis it is optimised for Japanese vehicles. I own a 2016 Suzuki Vitara 1.6. I have no problems with the car, but I just wanted a piece of kit to check there was nothing lurking in the background I was unaware of. On receipt, I opened up the package and plugged the supplied USB data transfer wire into the bottom of the unit. I then went onto the Ancel website and to the downloads link to get the latest library update. I downloaded the .rar file to my laptop running Windows 10 and extracted the file. I plugged the code reader into my laptop USB port and the code reader lit up. The screen remained blank until I opened up the application file and immediately it began updating the Ancel JP700 to the latest update. Once complete, I unplugged the unit and took it out to my car. I started up the car and plugged the code reader into the OBDII port and the code reader lit up. I entered the set up menu and selected Suzuki. Basically, I just used my common sense and flicked through the buttons. The unit does come with instructions but it is intuitive enough, so much so, I mastered it in a mere minute or so. I'm no expert or rocket scientist, it really isn't difficult navigating through this code reader due to its basic operation. Bottom line is, I didn't find any trouble codes at all, which is exactly what I had hoped for. I saw information that I wouldn't ordinarily have the opportunity to view. I'll keep it in the car for future use. It's a basic bit of kit that works which is all I wanted out of it. The price wasn't too bad either, especially with an extra 10 percent off when I bought it and it was considerably cheaper buying from Amazon than elsewhere.

Good tester, not such an explicit manual. Cleared my faults a few times, but i wish it had a more complete user manual.

Has proved itself very useful in providing eml codes for my imported Nissan.

I've always had these devices for my vag cars. But my import car uses jobd so bought this. It does connect up and confirmed there's no faults on the ECU. But that meant I couldn't check any more features of this. But the fact it connects should mean it works as described.

You've probably come to the 1 star reviews to read all the negative things before you buy (i did the same). Most of the 4/5 star reviews say it's the best thing ever, and most of the 1 star reviews say it just doesn't work at all. THIS PRODUCT IS AMAZING. However, there is a lack of info on this amazon listing and in the instructions that come with the product. Basically, the product won't work if you don't update the software before use. Simply plug in the USB-C to the device and the USB end into your laptop. Google ANCEL and go to their official site. Go to the devices tab and find the device you bought. There will be a user manual for you to download but also a software update🤩 download it (it's a .rar file so you'll need to download winrar (free softwear) to unzip the file.) Open the read me file, read the instructions and go from there. None of this info is stated on this amazon listing and the manual that comes with the product is a generalised manual for all their products. I hope this helps anyone that had the same initial issue of it not working that I did. Only rating this product 1 star so people see this info before they're detered from buying. I rate this product 4.5 stars.

Didn't work on my Toyota Alphard, which is a Japanese imported car

Brilliantly simple, easy to use and affordable. My Subaru Forester has a common engine management fault. The secondary air inlet valve has seized but this does not affect the running of the engine or emissions at all. But with the engine light on, the cruise control flashes and cant be used and the same happens with the traction control light. This simple gadget resets everything to normal. Saves money on diagnostics and an expensive unnecessary repair.

This is a great way to see the codes for a check engine light. You can also use obd2 and the live stream function for realtime feedback of certain sesors, like EVAP purge valve and Fuel Tank Pressure sensor and a lot more. You can use the IM function to see if the vehicle is inspection ready.

Ben fatto ma non compatibile con il mio Mitsubishi Pajero Sport del 2002 ( e immagino con tutte le auto Mitsubishi dell'epoca). Se il produttore pubblicasse una lista delle auto compatibile forse si eviterebbero acquisti e resi inutili.

Mooi apparaat en degelijk maar helaas terug moeten sturen omdat mijn Toyota Yaris uit 2004 niet kon uitlezen, de verbinding was er wel maar daar hield het mee op, jammer !

Recomendable 100% Ojo Solo marcas japonesas 👍👍👍👍

Works great with my jdm car. I couldn't find a scanner that would scan my toyota altezza however I saw this one recommended on a forum and it worked great, was able to scan and also clear the check engine light. Highly recommended if you own a jdm car in North America
