Yeah....both of mt post are in reference/ refer to ST2500..that end line was a just a typo.
There is no ST2600....they went to Vantage Series after the 2500 to comply w/OBD2.

Ah, got it. The 2500 is fully OBD-2 compliant (with the appropriate software cartridges & cables), even CAN compliant for newer cars, with the CAN-1B adapter ($$$). Snap-On is ending upgrades for the 2500 software cartridges as of the 2009 model year, though. Bundle version 9.x will be the last one, after that you're forced to upgrade to Solus, Modis, or Verus. Which is silly, I mean most of us are working on 10-15 year old cars, not 10-15 month old cars, lol...

Yeah..the Snap guy are always pushing the techs into the new 'MUST HAVE " stuff...guess that's what they have to do to get the stuff out there..

This friend w/2500 owns an Indy shop and he is a Benz guy, but mostly diesel..and he is a very funny guy.

Anyway, about ten or so years ago I was making all these LED tools of different shapes and chassis boxes , etc. for my Tech friends and a few guys on the Forum here ... [it was the new DIY thing back then] ..so, the Indy friend comes into the Club one night and brings me a Yellow , semi-small , hand held flashlight and he ask if I can make him another Led tool, but he wants this one with leads coming out the bottom and the LED in where the reflector is, etc., and he wants the leads on the long side so he can walk around the front of the car ....and he insist it looks kinda commercial...
So, I say yeah..OK... I make it up and bring it by a couple of days later.
He's got a car in one of the Bays with the hood up and the customer is standing there as he is checking the car out. He whips out the tool, holds it in his hand like it is a microphone, plugs it into a couple of pins on the box and then he brings it up to his mouth and says " Requesting Diagnostics Initiation...HFM module , please report." . O'course he is workin' the button, and the Flashes start coming back , he walks over and he tips it for the customer to see and me and another tech guy watching all this have all we can do from rolling on the floor..and he does it flawlessly...then he does it again , waltzing around in his Benz patch laden lab coat, tool in hand.... telling the module the VIN# and stuff... if you didn't know, you just went..WOW..that's cool !!
Customer is just awe-struck, but cool...
LOL -big time !!!!

Anyway, he would fix the car and all would be cool... Except a couple of days later his customers would show up for a Beer and they would go on and on telling me how Dean had taken care of the cars problem , never ran so good , yada,yada,...and that I should see this new Voice Recognition Diagnostic High Tech thing that would just report whatever the car needed ..all he had to do was talk into it...

I never blew his cover , but when he would come in , he would ask if so and so had come by yet..and then he would do the whole theatrics all over again at the Bar and we would have tears from laughter...he should have been a SNL comedian.... it was good times and funny as hell........
