Description

Veepeak VP59 is a handheld, standalone OBD2 code reader with a 2.8" color TFT screen – no phone, app or battery needed. Plug it into the car's OBD2 port (it is powered by the port) and read the check engine light codes, clear them and turn the light off, or check whether the car is ready for an emissions test.

Functions (all generic OBD2 modes): read and clear trouble codes, freeze frame, I/M readiness, live data stream (speed, RPM, coolant temperature, fuel trims, fuel pressure, intake air temperature, O2 sensors, MAF and more), O2 sensor test (Mode 5), on-board monitor test (Mode 6), EVAP system test (Mode 8), vehicle information (VIN, calibration IDs), built-in DTC lookup with 40,000+ code definitions, and 12 V battery voltage reading.

Cloud Print: the VP59 shows trouble codes, live data, freeze frame and vehicle information as a QR code – scan it with your phone to save, share or print the report.

Vehicle coverage (generic OBD2 functions): OBD2/EOBD-compliant cars and light trucks – USA 1996+, Canada 1998+, EU & UK 2001+ petrol / 2004+ diesel, Australia 2006+ petrol / 2007+ diesel, Mexico 2006+.

Not supported: electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids (EV/PHEV), non-OBD2 systems such as ABS, airbag/SRS, EPS and TPMS, oil/service resets, and manufacturer-specific data. It diagnoses emission-related (check engine light) faults only.

Specifications: 2.8" TFT color display, powered by the OBD2 port (12 V), operating temperature -10 to 60 °C, anti-slip protective sleeve. In the box: VP59 scanner, carrying bag, user manual.

About the manufacturer: Veepeak

Veepeak

Veepeak is a US-based brand of automotive diagnostic tools for car owners, DIY mechanics and enthusiasts. Its tagline is "Connect Your Vehicle, Enjoy Your Drive." The company makes compact, plug-and-play OBD2 scan tools that let drivers check and diagnose their cars at home or on the road, which saves time and money on workshop visits.

Its best-known products are the OBDCheck adapters. They plug into the vehicle's OBD2 port and connect to a smartphone or tablet over Bluetooth, so users can read and clear check engine light codes, watch live sensor data and build custom virtual dashboards. The range includes:

Wireless OBD2 adapters: OBDCheck BLE, a favourite among DIY mechanics, and OBDCheck BLE+, the advanced version for enthusiasts.
Standalone and wired scan tools: for example VP59, a diagnostic tool that works without a smartphone.
Tools and accessories: for example BT24, a Bluetooth car battery tester for iOS and Android.

Veepeak adapters don't come with just one app. They work with popular third-party apps such as Car Scanner, OBD Fusion, Torque (Android), BimmerCode, OBD JScan and Dr. Prius. This lets users choose the software that best fits their vehicle and needs. They support the standard OBD2 protocols and work with most vehicles sold in the US since 1996 (Canada since 1998).

The company says it is committed to "developing quality products backed by friendly, responsive service."
