I have this. A great device but I just wanted a bigger display and possibly more functions too. Some of the text were lost in some menus. So I have ordered the Launch CRP919E. It supports all brands and have a display with 60% more resolution and almost 4 times the display area. And a battery too of course. All for just a little more $

Good review. The Actuation menu looks very useful, particularly for things like the radiator shutter that are not easy to check for correct operation. Very handy. Probably discover some hidden features along the way too...

Bidirectional controls are very vehicle dependent. On my other car, you can control almost everything, even individual exterior lights

Nice but I bought the thinkscan max 2 obd after your review so far it's been excellent

The Max 2 is definitely more versatile, so a good tool to have. Glad it's working for you.

Great video, thanks for posting, although, at 16:30, for the OBDII protocols, you only show it for a few seconds, and the ones we see are all 'Failed', yet you make no mention of this, what appears to be, a serious failure of the device. My version, which has a 'Landscape' screen orientation, although still called the same thing, fails at every one of these! Anyt ideas as to why it would fail all?
@sdgelectronics8 ай бұрын
The "Failed" is normal. The reader tries each protocol until it gets a response from the ECU that indicates the protocol matches
@sdgelectronics8 ай бұрын
If it fails all of them, then it wasn't able to communicate with the ECU and either the ECU is dead, there's a wiring fault, an issue with the connector or an issue with the reader

It's only upgrade and update functions. If the tool works for you today and your car remains the same then it's good for life. No more updates doesn't make windows 7 unusable ...

@marknoir Жыл бұрын
Bought it about 6 months ago, and really wanted to like it. But it’s useless when it comes to some serious “special functions”. On my 2004 in 99% of cases VANOS for example never shows up at all. Sometimes it does, but the figures it gave me were so off, that according to them my car shouldn’t have been running at all. Slow, anti-intuitive, not a serious tool. Waste of money.

They didn’t specify that it wasn’t compatible. It kinda worked and then didn’t and then it did again and then it didn’t, and I just gave up on it. Wasted money.
