x-type again, can this device read and clear ABS codes?

It all depends on the software you are using. The device it self wont work without software like tourque or something like it.

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

If you can locate the fob brain box and get the numbers off of it then you will know for sure. I lucked out and had a fob already but it just didnt work and I matched the numbers and presto...problem solved.

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.

I am not an expert, but I think it will read most codes on your pickup. Some of the ABS codes may not read correctly.

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.

No this scanner can not read codes best scanners to look at would be the innova brands on amazon I sent this scanner back because it was a old model that the manufacturer would not support nor was there updatable. Find the innova model 3130b/1303 this scanner can read all supported codes on OBD I and OBDII AND You get a free ABS/SRS Upgrade with it. Hope this help.

No, I think that you just 2 dimensions code can read with it. I will try and get back to you with more information about it.

Any car with a OBDII port, that's 1996 and NEWER have the port someplace. Any scanner these days can read the Generic OBDII Engine codes!!! There are also Enhanced OBDII codes that are more Specific for GM, Ford, Chrysler, etc that a cheap Scanner can't read, well some do kind of. Of course there's also ABS, AirBag, Heating

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.

I believe it reads all codes reported by the OBD II system. I gave it as a gift so I don't have the booklet. You can Google it and find a difinitive answer but I would bet ....Yes.

Yes. Will read with the included obd2 cable. This comes with 4 cables, obd1 obd2 ford Chrysler . Obd2 yellow one is one mostly used. I would not be without my auto-X-ray has ability to clear codes as we'll.

Yes it will clear codes and give you indication of when readiness mode is achieved so that you can get vehicle inspected. I use this when needed and it is handy since it runs on my iPhone.

It would not read the abs codes on my 1998 Dodge Dakota even though the book said it would.

To be honest, I don't know if it reads ABS codes, I needed it to display emissions/fuel related codes, & that it did fine. However, a quick check for info on that model online brings up this pdf - http://www.otctools.com/sites/default/files/12-101.pdf - which seems to indicate that this model doesn't check ABS, but two other OTC models do, one domestic & asian cars, the other domestic only. Hope this helps.
