Best Abs Code reader

[ilovetheabel]

What is the best Abs Code reader that would work on a 2016 brz, not too expensive tho. Been trying to diagnose an abs light that doesn't seem to turn off.

Have you done anything to the car?

You mean an just an engine code reader? If you want the best that's going to run you over $200.
If you just want to know what code it is you can buy one at autopart store or amazon for $50-60.

Regular obd code readers do not always pull ABS and other diagnostic codes. They are not the same as a check engine light.

Breadman and Mr.ac you guys kinda misunderstood the question as finch1750 mentioned. Most obd2 code readers DO NOT read ABS/SRS codes. Unless it's something like a laptop loaded with techstream which reads everything.

Also important question ilovetheabel, do you even have the technical ability to fix an abs issue if you do read the code? Some of the codes can be caused by either a really simple wheel sensor fix or a hard, abs actuator replacement.

Also to get those capabilities you must spend a minimum of $100, but in return you get a OBD2 reader that not only reads CELs but also ABS and SRS codes:

I've been eyeing that ML619 one for awhile personally.
