Peake R5/FCX 3 BMW Scanner & Reset Tool

 

  • R5/FCX3 Works on BMW Model Years 1987-2000
  • Displays REAL BMW "factory" engine fault codes (unlike OBDII tools that only display generic error codes)
  • Resets the Check Engine & Service Engine Soon Light.
  • Resets the Oilservice - Inspection Lights & Service Mileage.
  • Includes instruction and code lookup booklet.

BMW owners and technicians today are facing the urgent need to read and reset BMW’s unique “factory” engine fault codes and lights. This requires a NON-OBDII tool, such as the low cost R5/FCX3 from Peake Research, which will read and reset factory “dealer” codes and reset BMW’s unique dash lights, like the Oilservice - Inspection and engine lights.


Why is "NON-OBDII" so important?
There is a huge difference between OBDII (generic) codes and the highly specific BMW “factory” codes. The R5/FCX3 accesses BMW’s vast array of “factory” diagnostic, analysis and repair codes enjoyed by BMW dealers - OBDII tools and the misleadingly named “Manufacturer Specific OBDII” tools simply will not. Keep in mind, BMW did not go beyond the governments most narrow and basic legal requirement for OBDII code reading in their cars. Therefore OBDII code readers are of virtually no value outside the realm of smog testing.

Connect, Select & Go
Taking less than 30 seconds to use, the R5/FCX3 requires no batteries, no additional cables, no connectors, no laptop, no software to learn, no special interfaces or downloads. It can only be plugged into one spot, one way. It is truly fool proof - compares in ease with checking your oil, pumping your own gas, etc.
