Not all of them...I don't think it scans ABS/TCS codes. I'll have to ask Don after he recovers from the holidays

Nope it won't do the ABS/TCS... But it should show you the Fan relay 1-2 request on or off, Engine operating temps... If the PCM requests the Fans on, the PCM should flip the Low or High speed relay depending on the Operating temps at the given time... I think the low spped comes on around 210F and High at 220-227F..

Update on Traction Control issue...yesterday I let the car idle in gear for about 20 mins, no movement at all...and no traction off light :? So it looks like it very well might be wheel speed sensor related. I now need to find out if the WSS'* are directly or indirectly tied into the TC circuit (i.e. "WSS-ABS Computer-TC computer" signal flow).

I'm solving miles of problems inches at a time

Thanks for the link Boosty! Now then, after looking at the above diagrams, and looking through the FSMs I have (particularly 6e3-a-9 in the 93 FSM book 2), could I *trick* the ECM into thinking the AC is on by splicing a switch at the A/C request line, diode it, and place it between the pcm and the pressure cycling switch? This way, both fans go on instead of just using the high-speed.
