Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this OBD2 scanner work with my car?
A: The YM119 is compatible with all OBD2 and EOBD compliant vehicles. In general, this covers petrol cars made from 1996 onwards and diesel cars from around 2001 onwards sold in the US, EU, and most other regions. Simply plug the 16-pin connector into your car's OBD2 port (usually located under the dashboard near the steering column) and the scanner powers on automatically — no batteries required.
Q: Can I read and clear fault codes without taking the car to a garage?
A: Yes. The YM119 OBD2 code reader lets you read diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), look them up in the built-in fault code library, and clear them directly from the device. You can also capture freeze frame data to understand the conditions when a fault was logged, helping you make a more informed decision before any repair work.
Q: How do I change the language on the scanner?
A: The device has 13 built-in languages selectable from the menu. It can also auto-detect your phone's language setting and translate data into up to 25 languages when connected via the cloud printing/sharing feature, making it highly versatile for users across different regions.
Q: Does the YM119 scanner require a battery or external power source?
A: No separate battery is needed. The scanner draws power directly from your vehicle via the OBD2 port, so it is ready to use the moment you plug it in.
