with the new MDI scan tool being released for the new cars, will that do the older cars VT-VE or is a tech 2 with candi module still needed for VE's.

so is it worth trying to buy the MDI scan tool over the tech for VE stuff

does anybody know how to stop the VE's from bringing up codes when you plug in the Tech 2? every time I plug something Into the diagnostic plug it brings up stability control off and abs module codes and contact dealer codes. I thought they might go away on there own but when I started driving the other morning it had the check engine light and it was a abs module code, I cleared it with my phone but would like to know if it can be stopped or what's the go there?

Have you got it all plugged in or are you just running the cord from the tech 2 straight to the diagnostic port

i can no longer find PCMCIA software to use in my old laptop it's called "ELAN pcmcia card"

i can however get cards but unless you going to use it on newer cars you don't need it
