I am thinking of buying a code reader for the Jeep. One that I can hook up to a laptop and reads codes and can reset fault codes. Anyone have any recommendations?

I have 2 since last Saturday. I bought a 99 Orvis ( registered in 99 in the UK but a 98 build according to the build sheet from Jeep) for my wife. So I have 2 ZJs

I am trying to fix the radio on the Orvis. The guy I bought it off took out the factory radio and cut the 2 connectors off and just joined the wires to the aftermarket radio, what an ***. I am trying to work out which colour wires go where

I see on the news New York has had the snowfall we have been having for the last 4 weeks, my reason for buying the Jeeps

The scan tool is a seperate issue from the radio, sorry to mix them up. The guy took out the factory radio to fit an aftermarket. But he just cut off the connectors and left the wires there. I have the original header unit and have bought new connectors but dont know which wire goes where. I bought the Jeep last weekend and the radio had been taken out and nothing new put in.

I just want to put the factory unit back in and need to know which wires go where in the connectors.

By our standards he lives far and he would be no help, I have already asked.
I tried yesterday following a wire color scheme I found online but I got no sound. Its trial and error until it works I guess.

Just to close this off, I got the radio wired up, working and installed. A wiring puzzle but solved now.
I would still appreciate any advice on a code reader.
