Confirmed brake bleeding scan tools

That seems like a reasonable price.

Watch this video. Skip through first 1/2 of the typical BS.

Think ill order it, if it doesn’t bleed gmt400 brakes then I’ll at least have a scan tool that will work on what little new stuff I work on. Specifically 2 transit vans with electric parking brakes

Perfect, if it doesn’t work out at @fancyTBI I’ll just head south to Texas.

“East bound and down, loaded up and not stopping, cannot stop until the ABS bleed is done.” We all know that Jerry Reed song.

This is complicated enough that we need a spreadsheet. If you're gonna post, give me model numbers of the scan tool as well as which system it works on.

What ABS systems came on our trucks? So far in this thread I've seen Schurkey mention "aluminum RWAL", EBC310, and EBC4. What other systems are there?

The Autel video above is pretty good evidence. I have it on my sheet as an "Autel MaxiCheck Pro". Anybody know which system he's bleeding?

​	Aluminum RWAL​	EBC310​	EBC4​
Snap-On Solus Pro 14.2​	​	Yes​	​
Snap-On Solus Pro 17.2​	​	​	​
Snap-On Solus Pro 8.2​	​	​	​
Snap-On MT/MTG2500 6.2​	​	No​	​
Autel MaxiCheck Pro​	​	​	​

Iron-body RWAL has it's own dedicated bleeder screw. '87 (Squarebody), '88--'90(?)
Aluminum-body RWAL does not have a bleeder screw, needs scan tool. '91--'94(?)
EBC4, mostly used on Suburbans and perhaps other SUVs. I don't think it was ever used on pickups. '92--'94.
EBC310 All GMT400 C/K '95--on.

There are other applications outside the GMT400 family, as shown in the .pdf attached.

As for the spreadsheet, you can put a "No" in the Snappy 8.2 software/EBC310 box.

I strongly suspect that the Snappy software revision is not tool-specific. A Solus with 6.2 would have the same limitations as the MT/MTG2500 with 6.2. A Solus, Solus Pro, Solus Ultra, Modis, or whatever else Snappy makes with 14.2 software will bleed the EBC310.

Here's the link to it in .xlsx format with what's been stated so far. Let me know if the link or sheet are dorked.

Link is dorked on my end.

I reset the sharing settings and re-pasted the link into that post. Google Drive stinks. Lemme know if it's still dorked.

EDIT: I'm going to have to find a workaround. You should just be able to download from the GoogleDrive link, but apparently GoogleDocs is intervening and trying to display it instead. It doesn't help that it was made in OpenOffice and saved in Excel format. "We seem to be experimenting some techmological differences."
