Review: Worth the money. Paid itself off in first job - If you have your own business buy it, saves so much time on diagnosing the fault and tells you exactly what to look for and determine where to start and diagnose. We have been able to successfully diagnose and repair all Trailer Abs Fault we have encountered using this adapter. Need Jpro or equivalent abs brake system software downloaded on your pc to diagnose.
