Would it work even if the vehicle is incapable of starting?

You don't have to start the engine to access the codes, all you have to do is turn on the ignition. I think you would have to have a charged battery.

all i do is turn the key to start position do not try to start the car, plug in the unit and press scan you do not have to start the car you just need voltage or power to use it, you can also use it when car is running,

As long as you can get power to your dash, it will work. I've used it without starting my car.

Yes but you should consider purchasing a solenoid kit that drains the unit in the event of a power failure.

I cannot say for sure but, my guess would be yes. I've used my as directed to jump start a friends car and it powered the starter motor just like the cars battery.

Yes. Shouldn't be a problem. If you plan on doing it yourself, make sure to disconnect the battery. wait 15 minutes after the battery is disconnected then you can begin the work.

I use this thing to start my Cummins motors in my concrete trucks and off road fork lifts. If the trucks block heaters are not plugged in and it's really close to zero it won't start them. If the batteries on the truck are dead and the block is warm it absolutely starts them up. I would believe it would start a pickup truck motor from cold with a dead batteries.

It should because no activity means the O2 is basically dead and not reading or responding to the ECU anymore ie, no activity. Its like just unplugging your O2 then letting your car run, the same DTC would come up.

Yes, if your phone or the smart starter is not working, you may use a brick. That will get you in your car every time.

Simple answer is YES. It doesn't have immobilizer feature. I guess you refer to its output to cut the power to the starter. I thought it might be riskful and didn't use that.

Yes. Plus, after over hauling (fuel clean, new plg, filter etc) would not start again.

it will work as long as there is OBD2 connection and will pull data as the protocols for it allow

Nope. Mine worked out of the box. regular small engine. Electric start works. I did add a float charger to keep it alive. I bought it for insurance. If you have one ready, there will never be a storm. :)

Yes, it will work. Since adding this to my system I haven't had any problems with starting the vehicle. Prior I could only run system for a short period or I would get stuttering on start. I recommend any system that draws a lot of power to add this to their system.

It should work, unless its a more serious problem. Its worked like a charm for me, and its cheap so if it doesn't work its that huge of a deal.

It will NOT work. The intake and exhaust fans need power as does the electronic igniter.

Yes. You might not be able to drive it in, if you can push it in it might work for you.

Yes, as long as it is electric start - otherwise there is another kit that includes a battery. Thanks. Ginger

Yes, just make sure you put it at the top of your windshield. Also make sure you run the power and ground otherwise it won't work.
