I own a motor home with an 8.1 on a work horse chassis with an abs light. Will it read it

this is for checking heavy truck , I use it on fire truck pumpers and ladder trucks. it should work if you have either the 9 or 6 pin diag plug. the round plug.

It should with no issues. I have been able to read trucks with cummins engines with my scanner

you need an obd2 reader; this reader has round 6 & 9 pin connector for class 5,6,7,8 trucks only.

If it is a 8.1 that's means its a winnebago?? Most of the things like that take a obd2 plug in

One responder says it cannot read ABS. The other responder says it can. Which is it? And if it can, do I need 'specisl' software to do it?

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.

I dont think so...i believe 95 and below is obd1..this is 96 and up tool used to scan off obd2 ports ..which is 96 and up vehicles...to read codes on 95 vehicles and below, u have to read number of check engine light flashes..google it

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.

Yes it will but you might need a bypass module if it has a chip in the key or factory alarm

Yes it will. I just did mine. The wires in the hub get weathered and damaged and it causes the sensors to go out. Changing it fixes the problem, although my traction still sometimes activates (I have to check that), it solves the traction and ABS problem.

Hi, No it will not. It's for reading engine codes. The Alarm system is an auxiliary system is if it is monitored at all.

Yes, as long as the vehicle produces the codes (and since 1996 most do) the device will read them. Meaning of the codes can be looked up in the book or on the internet.

Yes- even is says 6 or 12 Volts- it will still check a 8 volt put the Red on the + side and the Black on the _ side and read the volts should read 7 or better --Then hold the load switch and it should read between 12 and 6 volt if is not a bad battery-Some of the old car restorers use 8 volt Batteries in what used to call for 6 Volt to make them turn over faster

Hi good questions. This unit will only give you readings that your engine computer has and there is a lot. Also if you have a check engine light come on you can read it and reset the computer. If you get the unit you'll be glad you did. I am.

ABS is an additional upgrade, unsure on BCM. I have had NO luck with anything other than basic OBD-II data and manuf. codes. NONE of the on board tests work on ANY GM vehicle, OBD I or II! No updates for the tool in over 3 years. Works good as a basic scanner, however I do not recommend this tool.

I think there would be sensor wire coming from hub near bleeder screw. ABS light in instrument panel.4 whl disc brakes maybe

Thomas, I have mine on my GL1800, but it isn't specific to any particular brand or model motorcycle. As far as installation is concerned it just needs to not interfere with ABS. I took the power from the wiring that went to a 12v plug so it was really easy. Mount the flashing light where it is easy to notice as you ride, mine is on the dash off to the left side, but very noticeable when it flashes. I love my unit and it has saved me a couple of times already.

It will read any OBD II compliant vehicle according to the documentation. The documentation also says that most 1996 and newer vehicles are OBD II compliant.

Yes It will pull any and all codes that trigger the check engine light. However you should get a list of codes that are model specific. Google it.

Yes it will work on the pcm for engine codes, It will not work for abs codes.
