It is possible but rare and when combined into automotive diagnostics it's a nightmare.) * - Diagnostic Triple Play (This is a nice story and exposes how to use 3 different kinds of equipment to solve an automotive diagnostic issue, the Scanner, the 5-Gas Analyzer and the Scope.

It shows that there's always a quick way to find a specific fault, if you can master the equipment.) * - Dodge Re-Flashing Identity Crisis (Modern automotive computers or ECM/PCM are sold with a blank memory base.
