Some ODB scan tools support pre-95 cars but they need to use an adapter since the OBD2 connector is different to prior ones.
Personally I wet down a bit of a hole with OBD2 scan tools. I started with one of these, then paid a bit more for a BlueDriver, and now I'm using a Innova 5610. The cheap ones read standard codes that are available on most cars and they have limited or no write/clear ability. Different car manufactures add their own sets of codes and you need to pay more to scan those because each set has to be included in the scan tool firmware. If you want to interact with all the systems on your car via OBD2 you need to pay more again because that all takes time to implement and keep updated for the latest car models.
Also note that some people compare this tool to tools like BlueDriver and ThinkCar but that's not really fair. Those scan tools have associated apps that cost money to maintain and provide much more functionally than the free versions of apps you might use with this device. For instance, BlueDriver supports BMW battery registration and if you ever need to do that it will pay for itself in one shot since the stealership will charge you $200+ for the pleasure of doing it.
Final note: these tools should not be left connected all the time - that's not what the OBD interface was designed for and can cause trouble.

It should not clear codes without you explicitly telling it to. I'm pretty sure this one will not auto-clear codes.

Hey, given your rabbit hole experience, do you know of a fairly cheap scanner that will pull ABS codes off of a car? (1997, so OBD2) I've heard from a few places that ABS codes aren't done by standard readers. Thanks!

Hey, thanks. It's a 1997 Ford Ranger, 2wd, 2.3L. I wonder how ABS is linked.. the orange warning light is on, as well as the red brake light which prevents it passing inspection, but the last garage i took it to said no codes are pulling, but can't pass inspection while the red dummy light is on. ABS went on after slamming brakes to avoid a car that pulled out in front of me, so I know i probably blew out something in the system ...

From what I've seen, for an ODB2 scan tool that can deal with ABS you need to get one that explicitly states ABS as a function AND covers your vehicle. The scan tool might not give you much information and even if you clear the code it could return if you don't fix the root problem.
I just looked up my Innova 5610 [innova.com] and you can see that the second icon is for "ABS/Brake Codes Read and Clear". If you enter in your vehicle info on that page you can see that it covers ABS. I got this tool recently on eBay for $150 and it was basically like new. If you dig around you may find a tool with less functionality for less money that does what you need for ABS. Craigslist, OfferUp, and Facebook Marketplace are good places to look because people often buy these tools for a single issue and when it's fixed (or not!) they have no use for them. That said, some people are not familiar with the market economy and think they can get 100% of their money back - best to avoid those until they come to terms with reality.
