I will start off by saying updating is a must to get the latest vehicles' information. Thankfully, it was an easy task despite how long it took (leave it for a while, make dinner, watch a movie, and come back long). In terms of functionality, I have yet to encounter a vehicle it cannot pull the codes from in the four months of ownership. If there is a vehicle not listed, it is still possible to pull the generic OBD 2 codes. On many vehicles (not Dodge unfortunately, but that is a Dodge problem and not an Ancel issue), the Vin number can be looked up, giving a prospective buyer of a car an added level of security they are not getting scammed (I think anyone looking to buy a used car should have an OBD 2 scanner with them). A nice perk is being able to save the codes as a file that can be moved to the computer and saved. The primary reason I bought this over another scanner in a similar or lesser price range was the ABS diagnostic which has a bleed feature, making brake bleeding less of a chore on computerized cars. I have not heavily messed with the SRS (airbag) part of the scanner since none of my vehicles have thrown airbag codes, but it is nice to know it is there in case it happens, or someone else I or my son knows is getting the dreaded airbag light.

The Ancel FX5000 is an excellent OBD2 scanner that offers impressive features at an affordable price. It's perfect for both DIY enthusiasts and professional mechanics. The scanner provides comprehensive diagnostic capabilities, including reading and clearing trouble codes, live data monitoring, and advanced system tests for ABS, SRS, engine, and transmission. The large, easy-to-read color screen and intuitive user interface make it simple to navigate, even for beginners. It supports a wide range of vehicles and multiple languages, which adds to its versatility. The included lifetime free updates ensure you're always equipped with the latest software. Overall, the FX5000 delivers professional-grade functionality in a compact and portable package. It's a reliable tool that offers great value for money!

I just updated it , and so far I liked it

Easy to use and it's a very good analytical tool.

I like the Ancel scanner. It allowed me to complete the task I purchased for. I am pleased that I can download the software for other manufacturers so I can scan for issues with future automobiles ownership.

Easy to operate and quick to detect, I am very confident about the upcoming emission testing.

Not as expected for the money. I have a 2005 Chrysler Town and Country Van and a 2006 Chrysler Sevring and the Reader does not function as expected. It has a lot of areas where it can't read and or gives connection issues etc. For the money it should, in my opinion, do a better job. Also, it shows that it has cleared codes, but when it is read again immediately, the codes are still there. My box that it came in has been accidentally thrown away so I can't return it. I am just stuck.

This item is not what I expected for the money. I have a 2005 and 2006 Chrysler vehicle and it will not test all my functions as expected. I have an old and cheap scanner that shows speed sensor faults on my 2005 but this one will not. Doesn't clear codes as it says it does. I clear codes, says it has cleared, but when I read again, they are still there.

I cannot recommend this unit. I was able to read ABS codes but could not connect to ECU. My car is pretty standard, Toyota Highlander 2005, and I know that the ECU unit is OK, because I was able to read error codes with an old code reader. However, this unit did not help. Had to return it, sorry.

Not working !!!
