AutoTap connects the special OBDII (CAN) plug-in-port on or under the dash of your car or light truck to your computer. AutoTap translates the signals from your vehicle’s computer-controlled sensors to easy-to-read displays.

Did you know that your car provides data for hundreds of sensor readings? Just choose which of these parameters you want to see and whether you want to view them in tables, graphs, meters or gauges. Set your own ranges and alarms and even pick your own colors! Once you've got a screen configuration that works for you, save it with a couple of keystrokes. Save as many different screen configurations as you need for different vehicles, or perhaps one for major maintenance, one for tuning, one for quick checks at the track. Now you’ve got a powerful tool! AutoTap provides access to generic and enhanced parameters.

As the first PC-based OBDII scantool, AutoTap, provides a proven solution for thousands of satisfied customers. AutoTap takes the complexity out of vehicle diagnostics.

As Seen On TV...

AutoTap was used on the DIY Network's Weekend Mechanic to diagnose a failed throttle position sensor and a coolant temperature sensor. AutoTap read and identified the Diagnostic Trouble Code. AutoTap's graphing capabilities were put to work to confirm that the sensor had truly failed. Finally, AutoTap cleared the code and check engine light when the repair was complete. A detailed summary of the program can be found on the DIY Network's web site.

The Screen Savers on the Tech TV network featured AutoTap for Windows as they explored the technical aspects and capabilities of OBDII diagnostics. Leo and Patrick used AutoTap to demonstrate how to read the thoughts of the car's computer. You can see this episode right on your PC (This is a Windows Media Viewer file) . Beware, if you don't have a broadband internet connection you'll need a lot of patience for this to download - but it zips right along on a high-speed connection.

Let's Talk Computers®, one of the longest running radio computer talk shows, recently featured the AutoTap diagnostic scantool as s well. Hosts Alan and Sandra discuss how AutoTap fits in topics ranging from DIY repair to emissions testing to racing in this fifteen minute interview with AutoTap's Mike Fahrion.
