Actron ABS BrakeScan Saves Time and Money The appearance of an ABS light on the dashboard typically signals an expensive trip to the mechanic. Actron arms do-it-yourself mechanics with tools previously only available to professional technicians. BrakeScan helps identify what parts are required to fix ABS-related problems, allowing you to avoid a trip to the mechanic's shop.
Be Smarter When Talking to Your Technician In the event that you do need to visit your automotive professional, the Actron ABS BrakeScan gives you the information you need before you go. The BrakeScan's robust code library is embedded right in the tool, and you can view necessary information on the large, backlit screen. Being empowered with this wealth of knowledge enables you to visit your auto technician with confidence.
Easy-to-use Features The Actron ABS BrakeScan connects to the OBD-II port on most domestic vehicles 1996 and newer. It diagnoses the brake control module, ABS pump motor, brake switch, wheel speed sensors, ABS solenoids, vehicle speed sensors and more. The onboard ABS code library is updateable online via a USB connection to your computer. An optional battery backup can be used to save data and power the BrakeScan unit when not attached to an automobile. Help screens are also available for additional assistance.
What's in the Box The Actron ABS BrakeScan also includes a detachable OBD-II cable, a durable carrying case, and a Quick Start manual.

Poor, poor excuse for a code reader - mikefromseattle - Seattle, Washington
Prior to purchasing this, I did due diligence in checking whether my car (2004 Ford Mustang) was on the list of compatible vehicles. I received the unit, put in a fresh battery, programmed it telling it what car I had, then plugged it into the OBD 2 port in the car. Key off, key on, engine on, key in accessory position, didn't matter, the unit continued to report "communications error, could not communicate with vehicle". I found a compatible USB cable amongst my gear and downloaded the update from Actron off of the web, successfully installed it, still no go. Returning unit to Amazon this week for a refund. Afraid to try a replacement, I don't trust this unit to work. Do yourself a favor and either a) let the dealer diagnose the problem for the same price you paid for this, or b) invest in one of the more expensive units from a reputable manufacturer.
