NX Check engine light.

I bought the "Car WIFI OBD 2 OBD2 OBDII Scan Tool Foseal Scanner Adapter Check Engine Light Diagnostic Tool for iOS & Android" from Amazon.

It is WiFi based (not Bluetooth) and quite convenient being wireless. They make a wired version as well if you need that.

The PC software I used is the Free Trial version of "OBD Auto Doctor"
The Apple iPad software I used is the app DashCommand $9.99

I used my buddies scanner today, turned out it was the cen-tech for CAN/ABS one from harbor freight. It hooked up and showed there was 1 code, but when I tried to retrieve it it said not supported and would not give a number. How ever it did erase it. It also showed several sensor readings and idle rpm, which is back to normal. Guess I'll check the tractor over real well for any wiring issues or anything obvious and go from there. I've tried to find detailed info about that scanner as for what protocols it reads and such but not having much luck. I'm still looking into a new scanner for my self but for now his gives me more info than I had.

If you find a scanner for Kioti tractors let us know. Thanks!

The scanner that the dealer uses is available but at $700 its out of my budget.

I seen that yesterday, but think you have to either have the computer software or the scan-200 to go with it. I'd gladly give 1000 dollars to be able to read the engine codes and sensors.

The shop manual says you need 2008 Visual C++ redistributable package (free from Microsoft) and the FT4 Diagnostic Program. I am wondering if the FT4 program comes with the uVIM, is so you would be able read everything in the ECU for $700 plus tax. Still beyond my pocketbook but I'm going to send them an email just for grins.

I know it sounds high, but a couple of trips to the dealer, could very well pay for it or at least a big part of it. I looked at the manual a little and ran across that software but didn't read much about it yesterday because I was more looking at what could have caused the cel to come on. I'll go back and read more about it then.

I think I've got nearly $500 in diagnostic software (hardware, actually- software is free) for my cars. I figured that the best way to justify the cost was to get more of the same cars!:D My cars have been under $7k. Getting this strategy to work on the tractor side is something that's going to be a bit harder to figure out. :laughing: But, as stated by countrybumpkin, it'll only take a couple trips to the dealer (on one's dime) for that $700 to pay for itself.
