Scanner / Diagnostic tool for Vito W447 (2016, 116 Cdi Bluetec Sport)

[zendog66]

Hello everyone,

I'm hoping to find a recommendation for a scanner / diagnostic tool for my W447 (2016) Vito van. I can't find one from a UK supplier that lists the W447 model as a supported vehicle. I was favouring a icarsoft MB V2.0, given its good reviews, but it only lists up to the earlier Vito W639 model. Its difficult to determine whether it will work at all with the W447 model. Ultimately, I'll buy whatever ~£100 scanner will work on the W447.

I'm hoping to diagnose an ABS plus Traction Control warning light problem that I have. Both warning lights come on together at unpredictable times whilst I'm driving, sometimes with the brakes feeling like they "catch" slightly, or a slight change in revs if I've got cruise control on. The lights will then stay on (with cruise control becoming inoperable) but will often reset after the ignition has been turned off and stay away for a while. It seems likely to be a wheel speed sensor/reluctor ring issue so I'd like to use a scanner to work out which wheel to focus on.

Many thanks for any help or recommendations you can give.

Buy a mb3 if it's got a regen dpf fitted.

Icarsoft are hit and miss tbh with mercedes software , I have to select a ml350 or a cls350 just to see engine data on my 19 reg glc350. And that's with a cr pro , one of the top models . The mb3 before that was useless as well. Worked a charm on my 17 reg e350 mind you.


Don't rule out the brake light switch as your problem
