Yeah it checks for OBD2 trouble codes,it's the tester the Ford Service Garages used up until 2,006. It's got 3 different cards you can put in for diagnosing different systems,brake bleeds,reprogramming the computer settings etc. It said it passed. That's what got me thinking I may need to have it check the PCM too but didn't know if a problem there would make the engine light come on or if another light would come on or if I needed to have it plugged into the PCM too to get an accurate OBD2 diagnostic test,I just had it plugged into the diagnostic test plug. I may have to try and get another code reader when I get the money but that won't be for a couple of months. I have 1 that works for the 94's but the test plug is different on the '99 and it won't plug into it.
