## What is VinScanParts?

Scan the VIN. Save the vehicle. Search parts with year, make, model, and engine already filled in.
VinScanParts is built for the driveway and the shop. Scan the barcode on the door jamb or type the VIN. The app pulls the vehicle, saves it to your garage, and opens part searches that already know what truck or car you’re working on. No retyping “2018 F-150 3.5L oil filter.”

 • Powertrain OBD2 codes with Active/Confirmed, Pending, or Inactive status
 • 12,000+ code definitions
 • Live control-module voltage
 • One-tap from a code to the most likely part
 • Shareable diagnostic sheet with optional company name
 • Service interval tracker with oil, filters, and more
Who it’s for: DIY owners, independent shops, and anyone who works on everything from a Civic to a one-ton or highway tractor.
