Default ABS code reader

So no parts store in town has a scan tool that reads ABS codes.. I don't really want to pay $40 to have a garage do it, I'd rather buy one my self and have it forever. I was wondering if anyone had one and what brand it is, and does it also read engine codes. would rather not spend more than $200??

I was at Sears today, and I saw that they had a nice looking ABS scanner for $170. Too pricy for me, but it sounds like it might be something your interested in.

I bought a Innova online for 228 and it does everything you would need. It was model 3160 and I got it from Amazon. Nice buy

Harbor Freight Tools has the best prices on them. I have a Scanguage myself. I can leave it connected all the time. Plus, it can read the codes.
