AE, abs bleeding

Will an AE perform the bleed procedures for an abs repair?
Looking for one more reason to buy one now vs later.

Thanks.

AE has the option to perform a service bleed. You will have to have the steps required to get it to work. The NGS scanner Ford uses, walks you through the procedure. AE just runs and says it has failed the test. If you place your foot on the pedal, it does go to the floor then gives you a fail. Like many of the tests the truck is capable of, you need to know the logic sequence to make them work properly.
