Has any mechanic had problems with tapping into new ford trucks with their diagnostic scanners?
I HAVE HAD TWO DIFFERENT FORD TRUCKS THAT WERE 2003-05 AND COULD NOT GET ANY COMMUNICATION WITH A SNAP-ON SOLUS, AND A HAND-HELD GLOBAL. WHAT CAN I DO TO READ THESE ECM’S?

No problems so far. I hook it up, turn the key on, power up the unit and it words.

nope
IF you are trying to communicate with a vehicle that has CAN (Controller Area Network) protocol, even with the Snap-On you will need the CAN adapter and the CAN enabled software in the scanner.
Good Luck
