Default Will Jet DST read ABS codes?

I've got an intermittent ABS light on my 01 Silverado. I have a feeling it's one of the wheel sensors but I'd like to know for sure. My handheld scanner won't read them, and I already have the Jet DST for tuning the T/A.

Does anyone know if it will actually read ABS codes, or am I limited to the more expensive stuff?

JET DST does not scan anything it is just an editor.

HPtuners and Efilive have a scanner and they can't read codes from ABS or other modules. Jet doesn't even have a scanner so...
You need a dedicated scan tool (not a code reader). One like that is usually expensive so it may be cheaper to just go to a shop and have it fixed.

Well of course it doesn't lol. I'm not super familiar with it, so glad I asked. I was afraid that only one of those super expense scanners could do it, what a PITA. Thanks guys.

The EFILive scantool does actually read codes from any/all modules on the serial bus (including ABS).
