I'm currently looking for a good OBD2 scanner and before I took the plunge and buy an overpriced one I thought I would ask if any of you had any good recommendations for the functionality I'm looking for.
1. I need this OBD2 to help me troubleshoot an ABS and a traction control warning light on the dash. The scanner will need to be capable of providing real time data on the components that may be triggering these two lights.
2. I also had the check engine light go off so being able to read, troubleshoot and clear the code are required things.
3. Last but not least, is Forscan a thing with these cars? I used to have a Fusion and a Mustang and Forscan was actually very useful. Is it worth it on the Fiestas? I would be willing to get a separate, cheaper OBD2 scanner for this too. I know you need one with the switch to be able to work with Forscan.
That being said, do you guys have any recommendations on cheap, yet good value scanners? The top two items are required, the 3rd one would be nice to have but not mandatory at all.
