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

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.
