Question on the code reader shown on an earlier post with the Dell computer. Will that unit read sensor values and tell you exactly which sensor is at fault? I'm setting up shop and that looks like just what I need to work on the newer MB's. If anyone is familiar with the unit shown please pm me your thoughts on it.

The tech at Exclusive uses that setup and it's great . . I've "watched" him and sometimes it takes 'forever' to get a result.

Yes, for some "ckts", it does test and give results . . but I don't think it can test "ALL" sensors for a definite t/s to the particular bad component.

The system is much more advanced than my 'standard', an AST Retriever. For a shop, it would be extremely helpful . . IMO.
