    AK90 is old junk, do not buy it. My favorite tool for ews3 was always EWS Editor Lite which reads through kline. Like other poster said xprog works good too.

    To tell you the truth I don't remember the masks I use it on but I know I have never had it not work on a EWS3 that I did use it on. If the mask is not in the list then I probably used another tool to read it. Its not good for early ews or ews2 if that is where that mask is found.

    The biggest problem with ak90 is finding one that actually works.

    If your EWS is OD46J, kline is OK

    If 2D47J, you detroy by kline

    I must disagree with you. Most of the world use AK90 for EWS becase it's very reliable and cheap. And for old EWS 1-2 which many are scared of, it's safe without desoldering MCU from board.
