OBD2 Gauge, Trip Computer and Engine Monitor
The ScanGauge 2 is a compact OBD2 digital gauge and trip computer that displays real-time vehicle data while you drive. It plugs into the vehicle’s OBD2 port and shows useful information such as coolant temperature, intake air temperature, RPM, fuel economy, battery voltage, engine load, and more.
It is a proven choice for drivers who want extra dashboard information, better trip data, and basic engine code reading in one compact unit.
Best Suited For
The ScanGauge 2 is best suited to drivers who want live vehicle data without permanently installing extra gauges. It is popular with 4WD owners, towing users, motorhome owners, diesel drivers, fleet operators, and anyone who wants to keep an eye on temperatures and fuel use while driving.
It is also a good option for older vehicles with limited factory gauges, especially where monitoring coolant temperature, load, voltage, and fuel economy is useful.

System Diagnostics
The ScanGauge 2 can read and clear standard OBD2 engine fault codes and display live engine data from the vehicle’s ECU. It is useful for checking a check engine light and monitoring how the vehicle is running.
It is not a full-system diagnostic scan tool. It does not access ABS, SRS airbags, transmission, body control systems, coding, programming, or advanced service functions.
Service Functions
The ScanGauge 2 is not designed for service reset work. It does not perform oil reset, electronic parking brake reset, DPF regeneration, injector coding, battery registration, ABS bleeding, or similar maintenance functions.
Its strength is live monitoring, trip computer functions, fuel economy tracking, and basic engine fault code reading.
Vehicle Compatibility
The ScanGauge 2 works with most OBD2-compliant vehicles fitted with a standard 16-pin OBD2 port. Compatibility and available live data depend on the vehicle make, model, year, fuel type, and what information the vehicle makes available through OBD2.
Some vehicles provide more gauge data than others. The ScanGauge can only display data that the vehicle reports through the OBD2 system.

Is This the Right Scan Tool for You?
The ScanGauge 2 is the right choice if you want a simple, proven digital gauge and trip computer with basic OBD2 engine code reading. It is especially useful for drivers who want live vehicle information on display while driving.
If you want a colour screen, newer display layout, and a more modern interface, consider the ScanGauge 3. If you need full-system diagnostics, ABS, airbag scanning, or service reset functions, choose a dedicated diagnostic scan tool instead.
