A OBD-II Bi-Directional scanner is used for reading the codes, interacting with the various systems and testing those systems and individual components and then finally clearing the codes once you have fixed the problem. Basic scanners will allow you to read the codes and clear most of them. Bi-directional scanners do all that as well and allow you to dig deeper into the various systems and interact with the various sensors, actuators and computers to help you "nail down" the fault precisely.
It could be considered a minor or a major problem depending upon the root cause the fault. A minor easy to fix problems can become a large expensive problems if it is ignored long enough.
A warning fault light is just that, it's a warning that there is a problem and if you ignore the warning light long enough it can result in extra damage to the vehicle under certain conditions. A stop engine light is a warning that serious damage could now be occurring or that the vehicle is unsafe to drive. If the stop engine light comes on immediately pull over to a safe spot and shut off the engine and get help.
That's a "loaded" question that can not be easily answered because for any given fault there can be many different seemingly unrelated reasons for the fault and also so many different items that could potentially need replacing or repairing. A good bi-directional scanner will go a long way in helping you "nail down" the problem and will get you pointed in the right direction.
Go to a store that has a wide range of parts and tools that also has hassle free returns. For parts I can no longer afford to get my parts from the local (very expensive) dealership which will often need to have the part ordered in (takes about a week usually). To save money and time I have found it easier to get it from Amazon where the selection is better, it arrive quicker and its cheaper than the local suppliers.

It could be considered a minor or a major problem depending upon the root cause the fault. A minor easy to fix problems can become a large expensive problems if it is ignored long enough.
A warning fault light is just that, it's a warning that there is a problem and if you ignore the warning light long enough it can result in extra damage to the vehicle under certain conditions. A stop engine light is a warning that serious damage could now be occurring or that the vehicle is unsafe to drive. If the stop engine light comes on immediately pull over to a safe spot and shut off the engine and get help.
That's a "loaded" question that can not be easily answered because for any given fault there can be many different seemingly unrelated reasons for the fault and also so many different items that could potentially need replacing or repairing. A good bi-directional scanner will go a long way in helping you "nail down" the problem and will get you pointed in the right direction.
Go to a store that has a wide range of parts and tools that also has hassle free returns. For parts I can no longer afford to get my parts from the local (very expensive) dealership which will often need to have the part ordered in (takes about a week usually). To save money and time I have found it easier to get it from Amazon where the selection is better, it arrive quicker and its cheaper than the local suppliers.
