OTC 3418 Heavy-Duty Code Reader

This SPX 3418 OTC Heavy-Duty Reader does just what it claims to do. It works on various different equipment and gives you all the codes you need to fix the problems on the equipment you are working on. Once you have finished your repairs the code reader allows you to clear the codes so the next time you need to work on the same equipment you don't have to worry about the old codes still showing up. The code reader will also provide you with some code definitions right on screen. It also comes with 9 pin and 6 pin cables which allows you to use this heavy-duty reader on a more equipment than if only one cable was provided. This has been an excellent investment for my repair business.SPX 3418 OTC Heavy-Duty Reader

The item works fine, but is missing an important adapter required for many diesel vehicles in order to read all available codes. Unfortunately, the adapter which can be purchased separately costs an additional $150 or so, plus shipping. That would be a couple of feet of wire and two plugs.

It has done exactly what it is supposed to do and has worked on all the trucks I have used it on. Most of which have been various Freightliners. Over the past 19 years that I've been a mechanic I have occasionally purchased OTC products and have been mostly satisfied. They don't make all of their own stuff but the products they offer seems to be decent mid-grade tools.
