Looking for a scan tool that's capable of entering/exiting brake maintenance mode other than forscan? Don't need the best snap-on deal but something can handle it. I'm not exactly computer savvy so looking for an alternative method.
Thanks in advance!

What’s wrong with Forscan?

I found that Forscan is not reliable for maintenance mode activation. I had multiple attempts before it finally worked. Better to do it with the method Dale posted?

I placed my 23ST into brake service mode using Forsan and could not return to normal mode using Forscan, the Above procedure will not work with newer Explorers, the procedure below worked. This happened about 6 months ago, hopefully Forscan has been upgraded.
