ABC trouble code retrieval

Is there any way to get any ABC trouble codes off these cars without STAR? MY hand held and my dongle don't show any ABC code but yet I did get a "ABC Visit a Workshop" notice on my muli function display.

go and see your MB dealer



no, I'm joking, some low budget OBD diag software handles ABC codes like Autocom / Delphi
you can buy a cheap-*** DS150E clone box and get the cracked soft from the web
some sell the Chinese cracked soft icluded with the clone

I bought a Dell 630 laptop with STAR and a multiplexor for $550 on eBay.

No, it's a passive scanner but it does read codes from all the systems which is a big help.
