I would definitely encourage everyone here to get an OBD-II dongle that connects via Bluetooth to a phone app like Torque. Saved me a fortune and helped me understand just what needs to be fixed. I don't know why these OBD-II codes aren't available through the dashboard touchscreen, but that's another rant.

- pvaldes 4y agoUnless you want specifically a classic car (and some are excellent in mechanics), probably buy a new car that is not 30 years old. OBD readers are expensive if you want a decent one, but save a lot of headaches.
- grecy 4y agoI turn my key on and off three times and any trouble codes are shown right on my Jeep’s dash.
- jlkuester7 4y agoThere is definitely a Jeep joke here in how they have optimized getting the error codes since it happens so often.... :) But really, that is super handy! I wonder if other makes have a similar feature that I just have never heard of or if it's a Jeep thing?
- alamortsubite 4y agoThis would be handy if Chrysler also let you reset the codes without a scanner. But at least a generic $15 bluetooth dongle off Amazon will still do the trick.
