Default Creader 7

Hi everyone , I've been looking at buying the Creader 7 scan tool to use on my s type.
Has anyone used one ?
I've got a abs light on.
Local mechanic diagnosed right rear speed sensor and left front hub. I've changed both and fault hasn't cleared by itself.
Should it reset itself or does it need to be cleared by a scan tool ?
Rear sensor was second hand.
Booked in for re scan reset in 2 weeks he's that busy

Could it also be that the used right rear sensor is duff? Used parts in this application is not exactly your best move...

Elm and iCarsoft are the most often mentioned scanner/code readers mentioned here on the forum. I have the iCarsoft LR-ii, which works very well for its intended use.

I agree. Never use second hand speed sensors.

Default Fixed

A new front hub kit with speed sensor attached 214 dollars delivered from online auto parts Melbourne was bolted on and abs is working. Now I understand the fault codes. C12345 for left c12346 for right if I remember correctly which I probably doesn't
