OBD readers for a 300 TDI EDC discovery

as per usual the ABS is playing up again, i expect its the air gaps.

having seen the price of the hawkeye system, they can stick that somewhere where the sun dont shine !.

i wondered if anyone has found any other OBD readers that can do basic jobs like the ABS.

looking on e-blag there appears to be quite a few that say they will do landrover ABS.

can anyone shine any more light on this please.

Dont need an expensive code reader to diagnose ABS on a 300 disco. It can be done with blink codes and bit of bent paperclip.

Blink code description can be found here:

Then you need a jumper (paperclip) to short pins 4 and 15 together.

Full proceedure instructions can be found here http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=300%20tdi%20abs%20paperclip&source=web&cd=7&ved=0CHsQFjAG&url=http%3A%2F%2Fhomepage.ntlworld.com%2Frichard.martin%2Fdiscovery%2Fabs%2520diagnostics.rtf&ei=KlClTtHXEsSnhAfjpvnxBA&usg=AFQjCNGBx9nJbN9AxdkTgQknmdfRfbQWsQ

When I did it last i forget to d/c the abs relayed but the process still worked so its up to you.
