What truck does your friend have? Most scan tools don't do well with Superduty's. Folks around here swear by the Auto Engenuity scanners. They do work on our trucks.

Most people here, if they are getting a chip, get a DP-Tuner. It is custom programed for your truck.

The Auto Enginuity is a very nice unit, and will read all of the PSD codes if you buy the enhanced powertrain package. You need this package, because PSD's do NOT fall under the requirements of the OBD-II federal law. That is why the "cheapie" scanners do not read our trucks.
