Gryphon as code reader

[cheepone2]

What are the Gryphons capabilities as a code reader compared to other popular tuners/code readers?

Its good for your truck and other similar trucks. For example, I could pull the code on 04-08 f150s if my truck was programmed back to stock. Anything outside of that bracket wont work.

But for just your truck it can pull any code that pops up so it is very usefull. I was having trouble with a remote starter and if it were not for the programmer I would have had to make a wreaker take my truck to the dealership for PATS issues.

It reads the obdII can bus codes.
Just like the other programmers.
If you need to read body or tranny codes then a scanner with those options is needed.

body codes?

[Longshot270]

I think it is for stuff like electrical shorts for the power windows and stuff.

I think the some stuff like the B1600 do show up. This is a code from the PATS that the signal isn't correct. This code is able to immobilize your vehicle.

Yup! There's all kinds of different codes. Almost makes the idea of a tech who could listen and "feel" to diagnose a vehicle problem an obsolete concept. All we need now is a "smart" code reader. Then, we just remove and replace the part that's throwing the code.
