Anyone recommend a fault code reader that can read all types of fault codes, not just engine related,

The TRC OFF and VSC light comes on and stays on the moment the wheels start to turn, I guessing a speed sensor, just need to know what one.
Yes I have a laptop with usb, just concerned as a lot of readers will only read engine codes

Na na I'm joking, but yeah, not good 
There's a way to read the codes that doesn't need a code reader though. Go to this link, see section 1©. That will make the warning lights blink in a pattern from which you can work out a two-digit fault code. However, this seems to say that the ABS and nrake warning lights should be on as well, so I'm not sure it's going to give you any codes if that's not on ?

06-10-2017, 10:34 AM #8You can get a load of "C" codes (as opposed to the engine "P" codes), e.g. to tell you that a specific speed sensor is having a problem, but I'm not clear on whether OBD-II readers will pick them up or not.

is300_dino b2s2 will cause all the vsc and trc lights of the dash to illuminate, and car goes into limp mode, i had that problem before.
Surely that'll bring up an engine check light and a code though ?
