I have three warning light lit up on my dash ABS, Service engine, trac off but when you plug in a diagnostic tool there is no codes or reading. You can clear them out and they are gone for a short while but they come back on and the car doesn't feel any different when the light are on. Any thoughts on what the problems may be would be great. Thanks

You are correct the diyer scan tools only read basic stuff not abs traction control computers etc.I wish it wernt so I have a ton of money tied up in my professional scan too. You could find a older matco pro scan tool that could read everything on ebay very reasonable. It just cant command actuators solenoids special tests like mine can. But it can read codes data etc.
