Ford code reset/reader

Post by grasmere59 »

My o/h's Focus has thrown up the eml light today,2 weeks ago it played up with over revving on tickover with no eml up and it went to her local garage and they fitted a throttle position sensor,the eml is up now although the car runs fine.Is there a half decent code/reader reset tool at a reasonable price? any recommendations?

I just bought a cheap EML327 off ebay for my MK1 Focus.
It read and deleted codes fine.

You can also go into the cluster and get DTC codes off that!
