93 3.3 DRB II Scan tool

Where can I get a DRB II scan tool for this engine ? I see much relating to
the ODB scan tool but not much about the DRB II.

thanks,
nick

 

There were a few on line thru e bay not 2 long ago, or contact your local
dealer

 

DRB means "Diagnostic Readout Box", and was Chrysler's name for its own
OBD ("Onboard Diagnostics") scan tool. The DRB II was the 2nd version of
the DRB, and the DRB III was the 3rd version. All of the DRBs were made by
OTC (Something Tool Company), who also sold their own scanner called the
Monitor (Monitor 2000, Monitor 4000, etc.).

There are many scanners that will work with your '93. I use a Monitor
4000, which I bought on eBay. If I were going to do it again, I might get
a Snap-On MT2500 instead.

May I post to this DS? It isnt the original post but the 3rd one on my
screen. (OTC) Ottawanna Tool Company was the company that made em, you can
buy the DBRIII from Chrysler which will let you do more and see more on the
scanner then the snap on and all the other generics, it will cover up to
some 2005 models

 

Except that the OP asked about a "DRBII" and he's looking to use
it on a 93 MY vehicle in which case the Snap-On or OTC 4000 will
suffice just fine.

 

OK, for all you guys (and gals) that have an extra $6000 burning a hole in
your pocket, here's a link so you can buy your very own new DRB !!

But seriously, for a 1993 (pre-OBD2) all you need is an OTC Monitor 4000E, a
cartridge 1993 or newer, and if you are the unfortunate owner of an A-604 4
speed electronic transmission too, then you need the Chrysler A-604
Transmission & Chassis (CCD) Adapter to go with it. You can readily pick up
the scanner and cartridge on Ebay for roughly $75 or less. The CCD adapter
is a little harder to find on Ebay, but they appear occasionally for
anywhere from $20-$50.

 

exactly, but my posts are for others to read to if they are interested, some
may want info on the DRBIII and what it does. therefore i covered all

 

All that does is confuse the issue. Perhaps a new post would be
more appropriate?

 

Maxpower's rather feeble in the brains department. The idea of a new
thread for a new topic is probably rather beyond his grasp.

 

Still having that hard time sleeping?

 

max you will find neil know's all and thinks with his ego instead of his
intelligence but still a good man

 

Maybe you two should get together and have a good cry.

 

There are a few in here like that, It dont mater to me, I dont get into the
political arguments in here with people, Hey are you guys staying busy at
the shop?

 

sounds like a plan, are you hosting the meet?

 

Which political argument was that Glen?

 

Those factory labor times are really cutting into your take-home
pay, 'eh?

 

not yet, the ink pen still works for me

 

Yeah, we know.

 

Unless of course you want to bleed your ABS brakes in which case only a DRB
will
work.

I have a OTC Monitor 4000E with all the stuff mentioned above. Only problem
is who was the bozo who decided the engine compartment was a good place
for the engine diagnostic connector? Kind of makes road tests a bit
impossible.

That would have been Chrysler and with our DRB, we have no problem with the
connection, it wasnt designed for your OTC monitor.....just curious, how
long is the cable on your tester?,
