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.

Works as advertised, easy to use, great price. Read the codes quickly and easily. There are only two drawbacks:
1. The list of compatible vehicles is somewhat limited and there is no guarantee that other vehicles will be added to the list.
2. The case is terrible - it's a nice looking case but it doesn't firmly hold the scanner.

Note: Make sure your vehicle is on the list of compatible vehicles.

Folks these ABS and OBD scanners are fine - but can you count to eight?

That's all the knowledge you need to use the flashing light from the ABS light on the dashboard to tell you what the ABS diagnostic scanner will tell you.

Short out the OBD cable and the ABS light starts flashing the diagnostic code.

Look up the code in your fix-it manual.

Now you're in business, and you don't have tp worry whether this scanner fits yor car.

On most cars you have to cancel the code by a stepping on the brake procedure. It's in your manual.

I purchased this 2 weeks ago for my 2001 Alero with dash lights annoying me and also cause I needed an inspection sticker. The unit was much larger than I expected. The manual could be more comprehensive but the unit is very easy to use and it only took 5 minutes to diagnose my problem. Two new front wheel bearings and my dash lights are out and I have a sticker. Make sure if you are buying one of these units that it will work on the car or truck you intend to use it on. I paid $109.00 with free shipping. The hubs I replaced were both covered under lifetime warranties so I paid nothing for them and it takes about an hour a hub to replace. Take that same job to a auto repair shop and your talking about $700.00. My next purchase will be an Actron engine code scanner.

Thought had to take to dealer (as usual) for abs issues--2x since owned veh. When I encountered ANOTHER abs light knew had to find better way-ran into this product--not so sure would do all as description implies,contacted their customer service (good\knowledgable people) and walked me through process no problem. Found 2 codes and was able to read on the scanner what they were! Truly amazed me!!
You'll need to use a UBS cable to download most current info took about half hr. Inorder to do this the product MUST be registered.
R&R 2 sensors a few starts later abs light went out--have not had any issues since, an incredible diag tool for the DIY'R.
Check the PDF file make sure your veh listed prior purchase--avoiding a dissapointment,just a suggestion!

Bought this to troubleshoot problems with a montecarlo. The tool worked great fast easy to use clear screen. plugs in the OBD2 port.I had a bad rear wheel sensor. Buying the scanner and wheel sensor was a lot cheaper than having the dealer do it.
