Obd 2 MS300
I had a check engine light on my Toyota Camry 2001. I did a little
research and found out that a computer scanner called an OBD II can be
used as a diagnostic tool for most cars on the road today (1996 and
newer with some exceptions). I decided to buy this affordable scanner
rather than pay a mechanic $70 to $100 (plus sales tax, shop fees, and
all their other nickle and dime fees) to read the code. When I got the
Autel MaxiScan delivered, I read the instructions a couple of times.
Then, I went out to the car and looked for the place to plug it in,
which was right under the steering wheel. I plugged it in, turned the
ignition key half way, pressed a few buttons on the scanner, and presto!
It read P0401, which means egr flow insufficient. As it turns out,
that is a common problem with 2001 Toyota Camrys. I cleared the engine
light with the scanner, and unfortunately the engine light came back
about 125 miles later. The P0401 code also came back.
