I am looking for a way to read fault codes on MP3 all versions
Is there anything available to mere mortals or is the factory PADDS tool the only option?
I see OBD adapter cables available just wondering what they need to plug into and if they are suitable for ABS issue or only generic failure?

thanks in advance

the MST-3000 pro should be able to read abs functions sold on aliexpress for about 1800.- full version

motor management can be done with jpdiag freeware for a windows laptop for 1 vehicle multi vehicle account is 100 euro

I do have some bike.

1. 400, 2010, 155,000KM.
2. 300, 2014, 85,000Km
3. 300, 2016, 35,000Km
4. 500, 2017, 26,000Km

actually, I do not have any special request, however I do like to deal with this bike and I would like to be capable to able diagnose.

buying the "MST-3000 pro" is overkill for me, as I checked it is about 4000-5000$ include shipment & taxes (may be even more expensive than all 4 bike)

start with these threads as I reckon they'll work as the mp3 is I think using the same series of ecu

for the older models

for the newer

Thanks allot - SteelBytes
it looks like a valuable information...
I did not realize that HPE and old bike are different solution.
