It should read most abs codes. It mainly depends on the year, make, and model vehicle that you are using it on. If you go to the page on Amazon for this unit and scroll down, you will see a chart for all the code readers and what each one will cover.

This question is over my head. All I know is the scanner does not work and I let to much time go by to return it because it was a Christmas gift bought to early.

Not on any models I've been hooked to. ABS is normally a different computer. And you would have to fix the problem.

Since you asked the question, you are not prepared to program this scanner. The comments made by Al Buterol on 4/7/2014 are right on target. Go one step further and purchase it from the vendor fully programmed for your area of use. Good luck.

We returned this scanner. Ordered one, worked for 10 minutes powered off and could not turn back on. Returned and ordered another - same thing! Maybe they got a bad batch - not sure. But what are the chances of that happening twice. We went with the hand held Uniden Trunk Tracker IV and love it. Good luck.

The ABS light should always come on when first starting the car as it goes through its system check, then go out. My ABS would activate when coming to a stop, but my light never came on. After much trial and error and expense, I finally took it to the dealer. The sensor would not send the correct signal at slow speeds so the ABS thought that wheel was locking and activated. Save yourself some time and money and have someone with a scan tool check the sensors while driving. It will show the outputs of each sensor at different speeds and indicate a faulty one. If you need one, Amazon has the best price. The ABS light should always come on when first starting the car as it goes through its system check, then go out.

There is a code in the book that came with it, that you scan. You have to enter program mode first, then scan the code. I'm not sure which one it is, but you can try several options until it works.

Have you looked at the User's manual. It's on the CD and there should be an icon on your screen. You probably have inadvertently changed one of your scan options.

You do not understand this product. The scanner is not the key it is the software that is the key. It is a powerful tool if you know how to use it. It is to bad that you do not understand this product.

I have not succeeded in doing so, and am no longer using the scanner because of problems in trying to use it. I've gone back to using my previous scanner.

If you are using it with Win XP or Win 7 computer via USB then drivers for it should be installed automatically. If this happened and still no scans then it maybe defective... If it is other then computer device then it might need drivers perhaps. Also see troubleshooting section at the end of manual. Pinout section (also at the end of manual) if you are connecting not via USB may help as well...

Hello, my name is Alister. I to am an owner of a 1990 300zx tt and after purchasing this scanner I'm sorry to say I did not go well. The Z has an obd1 system and connection is different compared to what was supplied. I purchased an obdll to obdl wire but it still didn't work. Obdl computers had many different connections and your best bet would be to buy an extremely pricey top of the line scan tool or go to your dealer and ask/verify if any cheaper scanners exist. I also have a 98 pathfinder and 00 xterra and the scan tool only reads trouble codes with no live action data or anything. I've noticed this is a year old post but to any one wanting to buy this product please note it does not have in depth abilities on nissan.

We wonder if there is a spot on your scans. If so, please use the brush coming with the product and clean the "scan mirror" from the bottom. Our customer service just contacted you to offer help. Please pay attention to your mail box.

I don't know, I don't use the software. Software comes with the scanner, you might try that first and see how that works for you.

You are most welcome! Return it and get another one with a manual. It really is a good piece. Does so much. And so inexpensive. Go for it! Not going to hurt Amazon!
