    Welcome!
    Get a Bluetooth obd2 from Amazon, pair it with your phone, download the "torque" app and you can scan & clear dtc's with your phone

    Because it plugs into the OBDII port.
    It’s a stand alone unit.

    There's lots of stuff out there depending on what you want it to do. If you want something that can just do engine codes and data a bluetooth adapter and phone app will probably be your cheapest option (<$50), if you want something that will do codes and data on all modules on the vehicle your probaly gona be in the $200-400 range, if you want something that will do functional tests and bi-directional controls probably $400+.

    Auto parts stores have theirs used to pull up codes. If you want to have your own the choices are endless. I’ve seen them cheap as 20, and high as near 10k. Of course the high end ones is what a good repair shop would have. I’ve heard good and bad things about the Bluetooth ones. I’ve got a snapon micro scan, $400, it’s really bluepoint, their budget line.
