 OBD II & Electronic Engine Management Systems (Haynes) Feb 24, 2008
By Joe Chivaro
This book is easy reading and comprehensive. It covers all of the OBD II diagnostic codes for the majority of auto builders. I've found it to be very helpful in diagnosing vehicles with the check engine light on.

OBD-II insight Apr 10, 2007
By Donald J. Klimesh
The book is quite useful to help one understand how the OBD-II system works. It may not solve your current problem, but at least you will have some idea of what causes the "service engine" light to come on and sometimes go off. It makes no bones about the fact that some problems are difficult to solve.

A DIY, shadetree mechanic book. May 22, 2011
By Thomas (Sherri's husband)
"BeeMan458"
This product was just received a few days ago. As I begin to read through it's pages, I'm impressed by the amount of information, both regarding OBDII, trouble shooting test equipment and how to use the mentioned test equipment. When you first order/receive this book, you think that it's going be all about OBDII scanner codes. Instead you find a rather complete information set regarding various test equipment and how to apply this gear to what's happening underhood. There's so much information regarding general test equipment and engine repair that I have to keep looking at the cover to see that indeed the book is about OBDII code scanners.
Stating the obvious, today's automobile engines are far more technical than what us old guys worked on in the 50's and 60's. All this technology required abandoning the personal satisfaction of fixing one's vehicle troubles. This book helps bring an old shadetree mechanic up to speed with today's engine technology and between this book and an OBDII scanner, I once again can get back under the hood.
After more time with this book, I'll post more impressions. I gave it four stars but only because I need more time with this book. In the interim, I can write that the amount of information in the few pages I've read, the book is well worth having. I might add that this book, without a doubt, makes for a fine inexpensive gift to give to a loved one who likes to do their own vehicle repairs.
-----------------------------------------------
First addendum: I've now had time to spend a couple of sessions perusing the first five chapters of this book. The book is a veritable wealth of basic automotive information for both the novice and the more experienced.
Chapter one and two are intro and warranty chapters.
Chapter three is a nice primer on basic diagnostic tools and their use.
Chapter four is a troubleshooting chapter which deals with a wide range of information on basic vehicle systems. This chapter starts with basic system checks and moves onto battery starting/charging, spark plugs, EGR/EVAP systems, to testing of vacuum systems, to troubleshooting. Wow!
Chapter five deals with Powertrain management: fuel injection systems, fuel pumps, the "Powertrain Control Module" (PCM) and has a plethora of information regarding various sensors the OBDII system is dependent upon. Double wow! It's not until chapter six that the book finally starts to write about OBDII monitors. Lastly, all chapters come with lots and lots of annotated B&W photos to help the reader visualize what's being written about.
More to follow, as I've had more time with the pages of this book.

Good book for Amatuers and Pros Alike May 28, 2010
By S. Hock
"slhimages"
Bought this for my pro mechanic son. Lots of good info. Most pros will know much of it but surely not all. Everyone can learn something from this book. Anyone who works on OBD1 and OBD2 vehicles should have this in their toolbox. You are bound to need it sooner or later, and when you do you'll be happy to have it. Covers many makes and models, includes all generic codes as well as many manufacturer specific codes. Clearly written. Easy to understand. A good reference book. Keep it in the bathroom until you learn it all.
