cp9180 abdII: will this read the code when abs light comes on?

A cheap generic scanner just reads and displays the DTC (diagnostic trouble codes) codes and lets you clear them and turn off the Check Engine light. The CP9180 also lets you read the various power train (engine) sensors such as coolant temp, engine speed, vehicle speed, timing, etc (there are literally dozens). It also monitors emissions systems status, such as whether your EGR system has passed its self-test and is properly working. All the emissions systems must be "Ready" in order to pass the state emissions tests. The CP9180 only monitors the powertrain computer. It doesn't work with the air bag, transmission, ABS, anti-theft or other body modules that may be present in your car.

Sorry, no, it does not read ABS codes, only engine codes. Yes, it is the same item listed as 2500.

it will but YOU MIGHT BE HIDING A SERIOUS PROBLEM by clearing codes....there is a reason why the engine light comes on.....but its your vehicle...so the answer is YES....THE SCAN TOOL WILL CLEAR THE CODES

ABS maybe. SRS no. It will only reset the check engine light warnings from OBDII. Some ABS warnings are from OBD sensors. But they will come right back if the sensors are still not working.

It does read air bag codes and abs. I do not have a list. It does live abs data also.

I have the original version (3130), it won't do ABS codes and I don't know of any way to upgrade it. The newer version 3130c claims to do ABS codes but it costs a little more.

It should tell you answer code when there is a check engine light. There are pending codes as well. It does take a couple of attempts to get the code to come up, but it works well for $20.00.

No it will not. The only way to clear a trouble code out of OBD-I is disconnecting the battery for a few minutes. Honestly this device does the same thing as small jumper wire from the a to b pins. ABS feature is useful if it's compatable for your vehicle, it was not on my Saturn so I returned it.

No It does not. I will just store the codes and tell you the assumed cause or causes. Codes will disappear as you address the issues. The light may go out after resolving the biggest issue but CarMD will not let you reset it.

Yes as long as the truck has the diagnostic plug on it it will read the codes!

If I remember correctly, hold the power button down until the light starts to flash. If your prompted for a code on the device, such as a phone, enter 0000

Hi, Unfortunately you will not be able to read abs codes or sir codes with this adapter. However you can read CEL or check engine light codes and emissions related information by downloading the torque pro app from the android market. To do abs and sir codes you will need a proper scan tool and not just a cheap one. These can be priced anywhere from $200+ to $1000+

Can't help you on that. I just brought the Fob to my community office and they programmed it with their software.

I use it on windows 7 and it auto detect (no additional software). The light should be on once you plug it into the usb.

Unfortunately the free software (OBDwiz Version 2.16.0.783) that came with this particular device does not support reading Automatic Braking Systems (ABS) and Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) codes. However, this other software that can be purchased that may read ABS and TCCM codes. Since I had no need for reading those codes at the time I purchased this item, I have only used the free software.

This will read all trouble codes but the software that comes included only reads "generic" OBDII codes. ABS, Transmission, etc would need a different software package that has the ability to read manufacture specific trouble code such as GM ABS. Scan XL professional can do it with the GM code plugin but you are looking at spending roughly $150 to $200 on that software package to do that. But if you get the software and the plugin, this device will send it to the computer.
