I made this video to show  an affordable ABS scan tool can auto bleed ABS brake systems and ABS module just like a pro scanner.  You don't need a 5 or 10 thousand dollar GM Tech2 or Snap On diagnostic scanner (or any other high end vehicle manufacturer specific diagnostic scan tool)  to preform an auto bleed on an ABS brake system.

Please do your own research to be sure this scanner will work with your vehicle.

The Foxwell seemed to be the cheapest, and the OTC was the most expensive. (no longer sold as of late 2022, as far as I know)  TO ME, the Autel seemed to be the best decision because it wasn't the most expensive, but at least it was from a company that I had heard of before. OTC is a good, well known brand (Originally from my home state) but because of that, it seems that you are somewhat paying for the name. The Autel MaxiCheck Pro was middle ground for me.  After using it to bleed my brakes, I can say that I am very happy with my purchase.

I'm sure there are others out there but at the time of this video, these seemed to be the cheapest three (that I could find) with auto bleed capability.

And just to be clear....  I manually bled fluid from all four wheels before AND after performing an auto bleed with the scan tool. Once the air is moved out of the ABS module, (with scan tool) it must then be physically bled out of the system at each wheel.  I did this entire process twice.  And another side note: I use the Motive Products Power Bleeder  to bleed my brakes.  All other forms of bleeding may work eventually, but using a power bleeder (any brand) is absolutely the quickest, easiest and most reliable way to remove air from the brake system.... Your mileage may vary.

Please feel free to post any questions that you might have.... I will do my best to answer them.

Three years after this video was recorded a LOT has changed in the OBDII scan tool world.  You can now buy a full function diagnostic scan tool with live data and full bi-directional controls on all vehicle modules for just a few dollars more than this device featured in this video. Not only will this new device perform an ABS brake bleed, but it also has full bi-directional controls like high-end pro grade scan tools.  This new scan tool is 10 times the scanner, for only a small a small price increase.


Thanks for watching.
