Any interest in a Three Amigos solution module?

smoverstreet,

It would be awesome if my unit could read/clear codes as well. But it can't. The reason is that it interacts with the SLABS through one wire, the Shuttle Valve Sensor wire. The ABS Amigo interacts through the data dump port. The reason my unit can't reset other codes it the same reason the ABS Amigo can't keep them from happening. They are really two different things.

I didn't buy an Amigo. I just had my local private shop read the codes.

OK...so this is what I see as the main problem with your solution then...the price to implement the shuttle valve fix is in the sub-$20 range even if you don't own a soldering iron.

IMO, Paying $100+ to get the same outcome just doesn't sound like it makes much sense when I still have to go out and buy the ABS Amigo to read/clear any other codes that come up.

That said, I do think that this is a good idea...It sounds like you've probably got the technical skills, so my recommendation would be to decide whether it is feasible to take it one step further and add the functionality to address the remaining causes of the 3 Amigo's.

Seems like a $200 thing!
