I need to know if the following MAC tools scanner is compliant with my 04 Mazda6s.

I recently purchased an AEM CAI, and I have read that I can expect CEL's from it. The auto club I belong to has this MAC scanner, and I want to know if this scanner will help me reset/ clear these CEL's.

...also, where is the scanner port location on the 6's?

The mac scanner tool won't work. Unless there is an update which allows support for CAN to be added, it'll just show a link error.

Here's a article more on the subject which also answers your other question.

Hey Crossbow- FYI. I did a search for the scanner you suggested, and found it for $279.

Not a bad price. I might have to pick one up, hey?
