Editorial Reviews:

The Actron CP9180 OBD II AutoScanner Plus Diagnostic Code Scanner encompasses many professional features in an inexpensive scan tool. If you are new to diagnostic scanners, this handy tool connects to your vehicle, scans various parts of your car, truck or SUV, and retrieves a list of diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and code definitions from your vehicle's computer. But even if you're a veteran to scanners and auto repair, you'll be impressed with the new functionality that Actron has added to the CP9180. This device not only scans your vehicle, it also allows you to freeze-frame live timing and pinpoint your vehicle's problem. Instead of having to recreate a scenario over and over again, you can now playback the timing to scrutinize all the data and make a clear diagnosis. Combine this with Internet connectivity and the ability to interface with a PC, and you have a powerful, professional diagnostic scanner in the palm of your hand. This device is compatible with all OBD II (On-Board Diagnosis II) compliant vehicles manufactured in North America, Asia, and Europe from 1996 to the present.



The Actron CP9180 easily scans and retrieves DTCs. View larger.


TrueLink Technology assures a fast and accurate diagnostic output.


The CP9180 is bilingual (Spanish). View other features.
In addition, the CP9180 is fully updateable via the Internet, so it is designed to accommodate future vehicles as well. The device features a large, easy-to-read backlit screen that shows the trouble code and its definition. And although you still have to fix the problem that your scanner detects, this device will deactivate the "check engine" light on your dash so you'll no longer be distracted while you drive. Every Actron scan tool and code reader incorporates CAN (Controller Area Network) and the patented TrueLink Technology which guarantees the tool will link to and communicate with every OBD II compliant vehicle. This assures a fast and accurate diagnostic output -- a key ingredient to an effective repair.

The CP9180 is simple and easy to use. The included OBD II cable provides both data and power connections, while the USB cable offers a quick and easy way to connect your scanner to your PC. In addition to connecting to the computer for Internet updates, you'll also appreciate the CP9180's USB connectivity because it makes printing DTCs and other information a breeze. Once the scanner is connected to your vehicle, the user friendly menu provides a variety of information in a snap. This device displays freeze frame data, O2 monitor tests, state emissions, and even records and displays live sensor data so you know what's happening with your vehicle as you make adjustments. Other features include an OBD II code library built right into the tool, an OBD II drive cycle mode, battery power so you can review diagnostic data even when the scanner is disconnected from your vehicle, and a bilingual (English, Spanish) mode.

Another important thing to remember is that all emission testing facilities will fail a vehicle that has the "check engine" light illuminated at the time of the test -- even if it is only lit to remind you of a past-due oil change or 60,000-mile tune-up. With this scanner, you can shut off the check engine light and pass the emissions test on your terms. The menu also alerts you of any pending DTCs and reads the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) status. By reading the MIL status the scanner gives insight into what might cause your "check engine" light to turn on in the near future. In this way, the scanner also provides some preventive measures to help you keep a close eye on your vehicle's systems. These functions, combined with the simple keypad used to read, erase, and navigate DTCs, make the CP9180 scanner a perfect solution for identifying problems with your vehicle and keeping you safe on the road.

5 out of 5 stars Great Item!!   December 28, 2008
Juan Gonzalez
very fast shipment, excellent product, sealed and good packing!, works like a charm!

thank you



5 out of 5 stars Excellent product and easy to use.   November 30, 2008
R. Sanches (North East, MD USA)
I've had it for a little over a month and used it several times already. So it already paid for itself. It's not hard at all to use although I haven't really used all of the functions yet. I also like the protective casing. I already dropped it and there were no damages done to it. I look forward to many more uses, and I'm sure my friends are too.


2 out of 5 stars Lack of product support   November 3, 2008
John Bartley
I purchased this scanner and installed the software on my computer and was unable to download the latest updates. I tried contacting Actron support and after 2 days of not being able to talk to a representative I gave up and returned the item.


4 out of 5 stars handy tool, but not for a diesel   October 28, 2008
A. Walk
work great, but dont try to use it on a diesel pickup, it wont even recognize it.
I bought it to diagnose my 2006 f350, and thought there was something wrong with the tool because it wouldnt even acknowlege that it was plugged in.
I have since found out that it doesnt work with diesels.
I am still glad I bought it though, I have since used it on many other vehicles.



4 out of 5 stars invaluable tool   October 27, 2008
Denis C. Miller (Montana)
has saved me hundreds of dollars on repairs. I can pull and reset codes on my truck, and do my own repairs. Without it I would have to pay someone to diagnose my trucks problems.

works great, but not windows Vista compatable, and not much support from Actron.

am happy averall, but would like to be able to connect it to my computer for the available features.
