Check engine light on? Plug a small Bluetooth OBD2 plug into your car, open SKANYX and read what the light means in plain English. How serious it is. Whether you can keep driving. What the repair should cost. All before the garage tells you. No car knowledge needed. The plug costs about $15 and works with gas and diesel cars, trucks and vans that have an OBD2 port: sold in the US from 1996, in Europe from 2001 (petrol) or 2004 (diesel). Reading and clearing codes is free, and every scan always tells you how urgent a fault is. Full AI explanations start with your first verdict free, then a one-time Diagnosis Pack or a Pro subscription. No ads. WHAT YOU GET • The check engine light, explained: every fault code in plain words. How serious it is, the likely cause, the cheapest first step and what the repair should cost. • Turn the light off: clear the code once the fault is fixed and see if it comes back. • AI verdicts: your first one is free with a free account. A one-time Diagnosis Pack adds 5 or 25 more, and they never expire. • Health Monitor: a 60-second scan that gives your car a 0-100 health score. • Failure Prediction: what is likely to fail next, with cost and timing. • AI Mechanic Chat: ask anything about your car. Answers are based on its own data, not generic web advice. • Pre-Purchase Inspection: buying a used car? A guided inspection of a few minutes ends with a buy, avoid or negotiate verdict backed by real data. • Drives: record every trip on a live map. Each drive gets a 0-100 score, fuel use and an AI drive report. WHAT YOU NEED Any Bluetooth ELM327 OBD2 plug, sold separately for about $15. On iPhone it must be a Bluetooth LE (BLE) plug. Wi-Fi plugs also work. The plug goes into the OBD2 port, usually under the steering wheel. No plug yet? Open the demo to explore the app on a sample car.
