Does this retrieve ABS codes as stated?

I purchased this for the neighbor. I just asked him and he said it does retrieve ABS codes, but you have to download the manual online. It is very easy to do.

It does show the codes. All you have to do is go on-line and type in the error code to learn what the code means. The good thing about this scan tool is that it also clears the error code. Not all readers do this.

There does not appear to be any codes in the locks I purchased. So, the answer is No.

It does not. I didn't need them.It worked perfectly once it was installed. These codes exist online.It requires a Google search

Yes it does. It has some add-on software that you apparently need to buy to get anything besides a P-code. (Diagnostic troubleshooting, exact LR definitions, etc) but it will check, and delete the three amigos.

1996 and newer ford, gm, and the chrysler abs codes. I would say no on the honda and toyota abs codes.

It should read the codes but ABS and SRS it won't Go to the makers web site they have enough that will help you on the years it will cover I like mine it does me well

Mine did when I bought it. Amazon sent the codes by email. But it needs to be indicated in the product page. If it doesn't say so it means no codes.

It worked fine for me, was even recognized as A: drive which was what I needed for an old program unlock code. That was on Windows 7 ultimate.

do not think it accesses the ABS sub-system. Have no idea about the protocol question.

Yes. If you have the disk and the key code. I successfully installed it on my new computer with no problem.

Definitely NOT. The only command it can send to the control unit is to clear the codes. This tool is only a code reader and eraser. It works good, but it is limited to the specific vehicle models programmed into it. If the vehicle is not on the list, there is no way to make the tool work. No way to "try" a non-listed vehicle. It works good, but due to the limitations and me buying a more expensive scanner that does ABS for a wider variety of cars, I have sold this to another tech.

I believe it should work. I used this scan tool on many vehicle from different make and model. So far, it reads fine for transmission and abs codes.

These OBDII scanners will not access SRS (airbag) or ABS codes. You needs a different scanner for those though there are some combo units on here for about $150. You might try an internet search for reset airbag and geo metro to see if there are manual reset procedures out there. Some vehicles can be reset without a scan tool though most do need a tool to read & reset them.

it only reads abs codes from 1996 and newer GM, Ford and Chrysler, http://equus3150innova.com/

As basic as this reader is I have found many ABS problems with it and resolved them. With a little practical experience it is useful in locating a variety of engine diagnostics also, however the code protocols are so varied, PID, SID,MID etc. are all based around the OBDII protocol. There is a book offered by Nexiq technologies for $89.00 dollars that is almost a necessity to make this tool worthy. Hope this helps.

Danny, I am not sure as I am still getting used to the scanner myself. What I do understand is that almost all heavy trucks are still based around the OBDII and Can systems. This scanner is not as good as OEM program scanners and does not give you capabilities to test systems, it simply reads codes. I am not sure sometimes how to interpret them as I get SPX, and other codes that you need to have additional literature as to how to interpret. It will read ABS if you switch to the six pin protocol. The instructions that come with it are vague, and I am still researching OTC's claims that it will read heavy, medium and light and what additional cords and or liturature that will make this a useful tool. Good Luck.
