Thread: Anybody using this scanner?

that looks like a nice scanner, but for 140 more you can own a dhp.....id save up, learn how to tune....you know you want to lol

I like the fact it reads ABS codes though..wonder if it actually does

pretty sure a dhp will scan abs on newer cars, does all the same scans and more, and you can "tune" it too. win win win win all around dont ya think?

i know it wont on my 98.

Hmm dhp doesn't read my 02 abs codes..

you have to ask around more about the abs, iirc bill told me it can do newer GP's, but not a 97-98 for sure. w

either way, the live data scan is a 100 times better then a hand held because it saves it and you can review it.

dhp also reads and clears normal codes, as well as does a crank learn too if ever needed.

i got that too. torque app, also clears and reads codes if you can figure out how to log it will log a scan for you.

i can read abs wheel speed sensors with the t app. thats a bout it so far.

Ive got the OBD Link MX scan tool that I use with the Torque app.

Looked like this scanner does more?? Specifically I have a need to read ABS codes on the 98 GT right now, been poking around with that and am tired of throwing parts at it. After 2 rear hubs my daughter says "Gee Dad I thought you'd be able to fix it....."

i dont see where it says it reads abs codes....

red just got a cheap abs scanner not to long ago. iirc like 80 bucks.

as far as abs goes. i fought with mine right up to the point it won lol i pulled the abs fuse from the inside fuse box, one abs light on and thats that. i hate traction control, and who needs abs braking? car stops faster with out it.

I'll have to check but I believe that the Tapp reads wheel speed sensors on my 05'.

i got it scanned, changed hubs relays, the ebtcm, i lost the fight lol fuse removal, free. i must have a bad wire some where between the abs pump and the ebtcm. i just need to test the wires with a dmm. but dont have one. nor do i have the patients for all electrical gremlins.

Dhp doesn't read and codes.

You might not need it, but ABS is something i LOVE having in the snow or rain. Without it no matter how hard you press down on the brake your sh%# will slide until it hits something. You have NO control without it.

this is not the thread to start that debate....but your 100% wrong. ill out stop you all day long in snow. and steer around stuff better then you can while braking.

i come from a time where abs was your foot and knowing how to drive. abs adds countless feet to any abs activated situation.

HF abs compatible scanner wouldn't read any abs related codes for my 04.

I use a OTC 9450 to read abs codes and it works just fine.
