Will a Snap-On Ethos Pro program SLABS?
I need to turn off the SLS since I have coils and while I'm in there I also want to disable superlock for the obvious reasons.
1) I have free access to this unit (drive 15 miles and plug it in) so I wanted to see if any of you knew for sure if it will or will not work.
2) Is there anything else I should address while I'm in there?
Thanks in advance.

Not sure if a Non LR designed scantool can make BCU/SLABS Unit changes, but go try it and let us know. I have a friend with a SnapOn scantool and I know it can reset Adaptive settings and ABS faults. I never tried to use it for programming though.

The shop that swapped the air springs for coils on my truck years ago failed to change the SLABS setting, so I took it back to them later once I figured out the cause of a parasitic battery drain was the SLS pump. I had them also disable superlock that day. Took all of five minutes, if that.
The Autologic can also sync the instrument panel and the BCU. Mine got out of sync earlier this year so I stopped by a different local Rover shop to ask them to get the two talking to each other again. That again took less than five minutes.

Reset your adaptive memory values like Best4x4 mentioned.
Change your EKA (immobilizer) code to something you can remember in case your key fob doesn't work.

I personally disable the superlock function, disable the seatbelt reminder (drives me nuts off road), make the OEM front fog lights come on no matter if you have hi/lo on (use common sense when on the highway). My Nanocom paid for itself the second I could program stuff!

If it’s the odd shaped half square half oval scanner that I’m thinking of.. no it unfortunately will not.
I believe it will read ABS codes but mine was being a little piece of crap and wasn’t having it.
gotta remember it’s a 5 year old scanner at this point
