    Can anyone recommend an OBD reader that will read and clear faults on a 2010 Renault?

    Something like this maybe?

    Edit:
    By the way the code I need to clear is the "Check handbrake" message. It's a random fault, the handbrake has been checked and is fine. Will generic OBD reader be able to clear that one?


    I've never used that one to be honest, but for generic codes I find the €20 bluetooth dongles on adverts to do the job. Most require you to download a free android app ( The dongles don't work over bluetooth on Apple devices ) and connect to that. The dongle should clear the code but it may come back up again if the problem persists.

    I currently have 2 or 3 of these devices and I find them very handy. They obviously won't do dealer level stuff but for the getting an idea of what s wrong they're pretty good.
