First, once familiar with using the Ford IDS, I find it is the very best Ford diagnostic tool I have personally used. I am not going to get into very much actual vehicle-based use of the tool I'll stick instead to the PC side of the equation as much as possible.īefore we look at the hardware choice and installation of software, why would you even be interested in a tool that carries with it a fairly high intimidation factor, especially for those from the "red brick" generation? The answer to that is twofold.

Scan tools have come a long way in the last few years.
