Were can you buy a scan tool for a 1996 350 suburban?

1996 is the year that most automobile manufacturers converted from OBD I (On Board Diagnostic I) codes to OBD II codes. There are 'code scan tools' and 'engine scan tools', the difference being that codes scan tools can read the OBD codes from the vehicle and erase them, and engine scan tools do the above, in addition to read live data from all of the sensors while the engine is running. These latter tools are more expensive, but depending on the type of work that you plan on doing, you need to choose which type of scan tool that you need. I just bought an Actron CP9175 at Sears yesterday for $79.99 ($50 off) which is a code scan tool that reads OBD II codes only. The more expensive engine scanning tools often read both OBD I and OBD II codes. Sears has these tools online, as well.


97 Honda Prelude obd-ii to obd-I conversion?

The 1997 Honda Prelude has OBD II, there is no conversion. You will need a scan tool or code reader that is capable of reading OBD 2 codes. From 1996 up all vehicles with few exceptions are mandated by the Government to have OBD II systems. This was put into place to standardize codes and make diagnosing problems easier.
