Modern cars are essentially rolling computers, where electronics, sensors, and software control everything from engine function to braking systems and air conditioning.

It shows you fault codes that the car has stored, often in formats like P0420, P0301, and so on. These codes can then be interpreted to understand, for example, if there is a problem with the catalytic converter, ignition coils, fuel system, or other components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1113\" data-end=\"1383\"\u003eThe best models offer real-time data, the ability to clear fault codes, reset lights, and even display live parameters from the car's sensors.
