[LKRANC]

Can Obd Scan Reader Detect And Show Failure In The Abs Circuit
Or Must I Purchase Seperate Reader.

Hi
same link (under dash) but different reader. On my '96 the only ABS light I have seen in 120000 miles has always been fixed by topping the fluid in the reservoir right up to the max line.

Best of luck .Let us know what you learn.

Sorry, guess I should have elaborated. The factory manual for '96 specifies a Rotunda New Generation Star (NGS) tester 007-00500 or equivalent. I don't know what exactly that is , but that is what is calls for.

It is highly dependant upon the reader. The more money you throw out, the more functionality you will get. Some high-end readers will allow you to access the ABS system as well as the PCM and GEM to troubleshoot and diagnose nearly anything.
