    We were at Sears and I spotted this new scan tool. The company also has a web site that allows you to look up codes!

    Link to the scan code look ups: OBD II Code Definitions - EQUUS PRODUCTS, INC.

    I checked the look up function with two known codes and it appears to be accurate for those two. Try[FONT=Arial, sans-serif] U0293 and get the return values of [/FONT] [FONT=Arial, sans-serif]Generic Lost Communication Hybrid Powertrain Control Module[/FONT]

    when buying a scan tool, i would advise getting the newer ones that do CAN, and there
    are some that can be upgradable via the internet
