Default Simple Tweecer RT question

I ordered it about 3 weeks ago so it should be here anytime soon. But I have a quick Tweecer queston for those who may have seen or used them before.

I know what I can change and recalibrate with the Tweecer. But I don't know if it can read simple error codes that trigger CEL's. It would only make sense that it would have this option. I imagine it would be able to do this, but you never know, lol. And I can't seem to see that feature listed on their website.

Never asked the guys over at ecctuning. I suppose I can check there next.

Wow, I'm shocked that it doesn't Adder. You would think that if you are spending $550 or so on a tuner that connects to the computer, then the least it could do was read codes too! Cheap bastards, lol.

Yeah, but i can get away with buying a cheap scanner if I really need one.At leastI have a 95 so it has the OBDII hookups... meaning AutoZone will scan for me if I'm really feeling cheap and don't want to buy a scanner.

obd2 hookups on 95 cars aren't great to say the least. the software wasn't fully written yet, and some parts are missing. your better off scanning the eec normally through the underhood hookup.

I don't believe you can pull codes with the tweecer.

Maybe it can be doen with EA though?
Not sure how, but I think EA has a couple of tabs related to codes.
