SEAFLO NT301 vs NT604 — Which Scanner Should You Buy?

The NT301 and NT604 Elite are two of the most common SEAFLO upgrade paths. The NT301 focuses on engine OBD2; the NT604 adds ABS, SRS, transmission, and bundled battery testing. Here is how to choose.

1 NT301 — engine diagnostics only

Read/clear engine codes, live data graphs, smog readiness, freeze frame, and battery voltage. Does not access ABS, airbag, or transmission modules on most vehicles.

2 NT604 Elite — four-system scanner + BT301

Scans engine, ABS, SRS, and transmission on 100+ brands. Bundled BT301 battery tester and service resets including oil light. Better when you maintain multiple systems.

3 Price difference

The NT301 costs less upfront. The NT604 Elite costs more but replaces a separate battery tester and adds module coverage that pays off after one ABS or airbag diagnosis.
