Hey guys my aurora has some codes id like to fix. But every code reader I buy wont work on my car. It's a 02 aurora by the way. Where it was made in Canada the reader wont work on it. Anybody have any idea what I can get to read the codes? Thanks guys

If it's a 2002, then any OBD2 scan tool should work.

Some tools you need to select "other car" option . Most new tools dont have OLDS as the choice but it does work if you select other. You can buy cheap OBD bluetooth reader on amazon and use ur mobile phone with the app to scan . If you would be in NJ i would of helped you with my Tech 2 scanner.

I use a 10$ code reader ELM327 / OBDII along with a free InCarDoc app on my phone. Works well with my 2003 Aurora for the basic stuff.
For more serious stuff and deeper analysis, you need a Tech2, there are brand new clones out there for 400$.
