Review: Pretty much does - Having had so many problems getting an OBD2-USB cable talking between my laptop and car, I opted to go for this item and pretty glad I did Plugged it into the OBD2 socket (under the ashtray in the centre) on my 2003 Vauxhall Signum 2.2 Auto (pretty much a Vectra). The scanner lit up straight away and found the correct protocol before identifying one fault P0302 - a quick read of the included PDF file and hard copy of the user manual booklet identified a misfire on cylinder 2 (which seems pretty consistent with a problem I've been having (now will get my hands dirty and investigate more) The unit lets you reset the code, so I'll see if it comes up again. It also correctly read and identified the VIN and advises that the engine warning light was 'off' and that various scanning functions are running. Next test was on my 2002 MG ZT 160 - OBD2 socket is just to the right of the steering column, about knee-height. Again, plugged in, found the correct protocol and gave a 'no faults' response Final test was on my Wife's 1999 Vauxhall Tigra 1.6. The OBD socket is in the fuse panel to the right of the steering column (about knee-level again) This time, plugged in, but couldn't find the correct protocol, so couldn't read the codes. I'm guessing that because this is an older vehicle, the protocol isn't supported All in all, I'd say this was a pretty good item - it does the job and supplies the info you need in a pretty simple way. I guess you could ask for bells and whistles (eg an auto lookup of the fault code on the unit itself) but you get what you pay for. I wanted to pay as little as possible to identify any fault codes and that's exactly what I got - its not exactly a hardship to go and look it up in the PDF or booklet or key in the fault code to the little app thats included on a mini-CD. Buy it...if your car is after 2002, you probably won't be disappointed Review: Fanatastic - Thing about cars these days is all these dash lights coming on for this and that, some spurious, some not. How to tell? Bought this for a late model BMW E38. Works fine. Gives all the standard codes you might expect, but doesn't appear to give all the car accessory codes you can get on the BMW socket. Wont give you 'live data' e.g. readings for throttle when running. But lets face it, it's the pricey engine and transmission bits you want to test? Not being BMW specific you have to read into it, what the code might mean - and for me 'air mass sensor'. Knowing this let me reset it a few times, and having a few suspicions, watch for when the code came back. As suspected it was in very cold weather, probably mass sensor degrading - give it a clean, and don't spend £200 on a replacement. Money saved! Works also on new model Corsa D. Will reset service lights, but not airbag lights - but at this price you can hardly complain. ## Features - 【For Car DIYers And Beginners】This Autel scanner MS300 can pay for itself in the first use.

If you read the product details it says all European and Asian vehcles from 2001 on and diesels from 2004 **Q: what happens if it does not work on your car, I have a Mitsub Equipe Sport 2.5 4x4 which the engine light keeps coming on then the power starts to drop, I can clear it by turning off the car locking the doors then opening them again** A: The same thing was happening to my mondeo 2.0ltr turbo diesel, I had had the injectors and fuel pump etc changed @ £2000,but it still cut out to 30mph,get you home mode,and the light kept comming on. The garage said it needed a new turbo. Icould do the same as you by switching off and re starting,the power would come back,but the light stayed on untill you really pushed the car hard,when it would cut out again.I bought the maxiscan,plugged it in, it went through the checks and showed fault code,I followed instruction book and immediatly turned the engine management light off,and vehicle returned to normal,which is what I wanted to do to be able to sell it. I would get one bought as @ under £14, well worth it and it should work good luck. **Q: Can this show you monitors are ready? Can you see if a monitor isn't ready because it was recently reset or the battery was unplugged?** A: Dear, Glad to hear from you. YES, it support I/M readiness, but it does not support battery. MS300 is a very basic obd2 code reader, it can turn off check engine lights. Mostly, if your car is with OBD2 socket, then it supports. BUT it does NOT support ABS, SRS, Engine and Transmission etc. systems. PS: For OBD2 Functions, usually, EU cars after 2006, Asian cars after 2009, US cars after 1996. To check the function or compatibility, please send your car information(car VIN, brand, model, year), and the detailed functions you need to our email: auteldirect @ outlook . com Autel engineer will help you check. Thank you! AutelDirect-UK **Q: Can the MaxiScan 300 reset the ECU codes- in particular the code that is shown requiring topping up of particulate fluid on a 307SW diesel.** A: should do I have reset ecu codes with mine and turned dash lights off ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty much does *by M***H on 20 April 2013* Having had so many problems getting an OBD2-USB cable talking between my laptop and car, I opted to go for this item and pretty glad I did Plugged it into the OBD2 socket (under the ashtray in the centre) on my 2003 Vauxhall Signum 2.2 Auto (pretty much a Vectra).

While it won't do as much as some more expensive products (such as read out live data) it will read and display a list of faults stored in the ECU, erase them and a few other things on certain models. It comes with a handbook giving an explanation of what makes up a fault code, and a list of what each code actualy means. Anyone who works on their own car should own one as it makes maintenance and fault-finding so much easier. ## Frequently Bought Together - Autel MS300 OBD2 Scanner Code Reader, Turn Off Check Engine Light, Read & Erase Fault Codes, Check Emission Monitor Status CAN Diagnostic Scan Tool - ANCEL AD310 Classic Enhanced Universal OBD II Scanner Car Engine Fault Code Reader CAN Diagnostic Scan Tool, Read and Clear Error Codes for 1996 or Newer OBD2 Protocol Vehicle (Black) - GOOACC - GRC-33 240PCS Bumper Retainer Clips Car Plastic Rivets Fasteners Push Retainer Kit Most Popular Sizes Auto Push Pin Rivets Set -Door Trim Panel Fender Clips for GM Ford Toyota Honda Chrysler --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fi/products/51664712-autel-maxiscan-ms300-universal-obd2-scanner-turn-off-check-engine](https://www.desertcart.fi/products/51664712-autel-maxiscan-ms300-universal-obd2-scanner-turn-off-check-engine) --- *Product available on Desertcart Finland* *Store origin: FI* *Last updated: 2026-11-05*
