Scotty I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in Jan. 2021 so money got tight and time definatly got short. I've building and working on my cars for over 40 years. This new age of computer cars is overwhelming and then I found you. Thank you car God. You have helped me out over a dozen times so far and with time being of the essence I want to thank you. I have to say you make life alot easier and I've never failed with the school of scotty. 2 thumbs up!!

Scotty - you are credit to "honesty" and sadly you don't see that much in people anymore. I have a State-Registered Animal Care & Rescue (non-profit) using a 2000 Ford van with 275,000 miles, that I have to keep running and on the road safely. I can't tell you how many times I've been ripped off by mechanics in the past working on it, or shall I say, suspected I was ripped off by a mechanic for hundreds of dollars in what seems like such a simple repair. With the CRP123 scanner you recommended I can at least feel confident that I am paying for what the problem really was. Thanks for the "honesty" about how to identify and possibly fix an ABS problem. Keep up the great videos - I am recommending your stuff.

There's a KZbin mechanic that says he charges $180/hour for any work done on/with a car. Just reading a check-engine code is $180. Even if the light is on because of a low battery, it's $180 just for him to tell you that. Comparing the cost of the tool to mechanics like that is no contest; tool wins. Makes me really appreciate all the information Scotty shares. Thanks Scotty.

Great video. My 2013 Ford Fusion has the abs light on, traction control, and brake light on. They popped up when the wiring harness for the engine coolant sensor broke and was fixed. I did a full brake job, checked that the wheel sensors all read the same with Forscan. Have zero dtcs on Forscan and cannot figure this problem out. If I engage the electronic parking brake the lights turn off tell the epb is disengaged. Would reseting the ABS module in Forscan be worth a try and would the module need to be recalibrated if reset with Forscan. Thanks for your time.

I stripped two of the Torx screws in the top of the module, so I had to pull the entire unit. I lost all fluid. I figured since I went that far ,I would replace all calipers shoes and rotors. Hard ware is in. 2 pumps I get full pedal, start engine no brakes. Does this scanner do an auto bleed do the ABS SYS.

HI Scotty . Im in the process of troubleshooting the several problems on my 2004 Pontiac grand prix GTP. Ive been looking for a supercharged 3800 series 3 car for several years now. There weee many problems that i have tackled myself. Like the rear passenger window regulator . Cabin air filter , 3 wheel ABS bearings ,. Ive disassembled the sun roof ot determine that the drivers side track regulator is stripped ,. I will address that problem at a later date . What's more important right now is understanding how to tackle the ABS , TRACION CONTROL ,STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEMS. The brake fluid is really dirty and there are many leaks on the motor, all due to lack of responsibility to maintain the car . So i know that I my have bought a black hole but I'm the kind of person who likes to learn about things . Learn how to rrpair things . But in order to repair such things ,I must have knowledge of how all these systems work. Before I spend piles of cash on items that I think are the problems. I have a good mechanic who I trust to work on my other vehicles but im at the point in life where i want to learn to do the work myself. Is there a really informative book that you might be aware of that you can suggest for me to get ? Im at the point of reasoning were why should i spend $1400.00on a new ABS control module when there might be a better diagnosis procedure to follow that might find out exactly what the problem is. Im thinking that if I totally dismantle the entire braking system, clean every part inside and out, that that might slove the problem. But we all know that simply cleansing parts doesn't bring them back into factory specifications. They are just worn out and need to be replaced. Now the topic of endless money pitt . Do you think that I should just stop this project due to the projected costs ? Or would you suggest that I continue with my plan of attack, to eliminate one problem at a time using logic ? I dont like making things into gods . All i wantrd was a reliable, durable engine, and the 3800 V6 is good. And the 4T65E HD tranny isn't really what I wanted but the other option was to get a G8 with the 3.6 VVT and a manual transmission. I thank you for all your advice and opinions. I understand what you mean about turbo's,superchargers over stressing engines. But it was available for sale and there where 2 other 2007's that were also for sale but allthough cheaper $900. &750. The 900 one had 350000km, and the other had 3 and 4th transmission problems. Anyway Scotty i love your channel . Your recent stories about Ford ,Toyota and Honda . Im totally dismayed with GM and i cant ever see myself buying another new product from them ever again.

Hey Scotty. What’s the best scanner for 2024? I’ve got an old 2002 Econoline I’m fixing up and the ABS light came on.

Will this scanner let you actuate the ABS system for bleeding old fluid through it? When cleaning a contaminated brake fluid system?

Scotty, i have a 2005 Ford Ranger XLT 4x4 with the abs light on. Its throwing a C1230 code for the rear speed sensor. Changed the sensor, still throwing the same code. Now the brake light is on. I was told that it was my abs control module under the hood. I'm not mechanically inclined

I have a situation with my accord sport 2013. Power steering light is on, traction is off and low tire pressure light is on. Every time I run the computer is says that the yaw rate sensor is malfunctioning and as I went to the mechanic he said I need to change the abs module. Now, the abs light is not on. I was just wondering is there is any additional information on this or what can I do ? Or should I just go with what the mechanic said ?

I have an infinite G35 where brakes pedal is not bring the car to a stop. I had all the brake pads replaced, 2 rotors and new fluid added n bleed. I did have an engine issue an disconnected my battery to fix the engine. What would be the diagnosis for my brakes not working properly? Of by chance I know without a scan?

After changing my 2007 Envoy air suspension to coil suspension, my brakes started clunking, sometimes, when I stop at lights, etc. My brakes are all good. Hoping it is some type of fuse problem, but maybe I need a sender. Anything I should check first before all that work?
