Autel Scan Tool
 
Does anyone have the Autel Scan tool ? I've got this one ....

Autel

It seems to be good enough but I find it a bit confusing. It has the option to scan generic OBDII codes or BMW specific ones. It rarely shows any generic codes (like P0xxx), but it often gives a few of the BMW specific codes. They tend to be numbers only, no letters. Usually 2 or 3 numbers. Plus a bit of a cryptic definition of the code, not much use. I've got about 4 of them showing at the moment.

Anyone know of somewhere to find a good translator for the BMW codes ? I'm really struggling with Google searches .... not finding anything that's useful and making sense.

Dont know which Autel you have but all the ones I used come with a software disc that has all the manufacturers codes.
You can also download it from the Autel site here;-
