DSC scanner

Does anybody have a recommendation for a BODY CODE scanner. I am trying to troubleshoot my DSC lights and the ELM327 scanner with bluetooth did not find the codes through the OBD2 link. Do I need a different scanner?

Try this. I've never messed around with DSC myself, so no idea what the connections look like.

Go to Brakes, then Onboard Diagnostic, then Onboard Diagnosis. It sounds like the use WDS the same way as in regular OBD reading, just on a different module?

Thanks that was a great link. I am looking at a service called "Alldata".

ALLDATA Repair - OEM Automotive Mechanical Repair Information

They are subscription based with a tablet link to the OBD2. The cost is $30/yr, or $50/5yr.

Has anybody used them?
