Yes....... even basic hand held DIY tools can do that.

Mechanics are very likely to have professional scan tools that can do far more. The really advanced features are rarely needed or used.

Starscan is the factory tool that as you would expect can pretty much do anything...... but the chances of a stealer mechanic understanding its features is pretty much zero.

In practice all you need is a basic code reader for 99% of problems.
