For 3$ a month, you get an extra weekly "What's UP" update video. Just for my Patrons. The Support I resave on patreon is all used on stuff to make interesting videos on KZbin.
My PlayHouse is a channel where i will show, what i am working on. I have this house, it is 168 Square Meters / 1808.3ft² and it is full, of half-finished projects.
I love working with heating, insulation, Servers, computers, Datacenter, green power, alternative energy, solar, wind and more. It all costs, but I'm trying to get the most out of my money, and my time.

Cool. Very important to remember to have key in off position when connecting and disconnecting device, otherwise you could damage vehicle computers. I just make sure key is out when doing it. Also, as you mentioned,: low battery voltage/bad connections can trigger multiple codes.

[@MyPlayHouse]

Thank you very much!! good point!

[@bobafett64]

Looking forward to car repair videos now Morten. You can do your own services and reset service intervals as an example. I am sure you can get a lot of usage from it as you have bought a long mileage car. You can even start your own home business for car diagnostic services. I see a lot of guys advertising such services. Easy money if you have the tool. To get the car diagnosed at the stealers cost a lot of money!

[@MyPlayHouse]

I will probably not be fixing many cars :-) But now I can see if something is wrong.

[@NoNamenoonehere]

Good Video,make sure you make a follow up video on the car,be nice to see how it gets resolved or figured out

[@MyPlayHouse]

Thank You,, Yes, not sure they are actually errors with any effects.

[@SSMCC91]

I would recommend Ross-Tech VCDS for anything in the Volkswagen Group like your Seat, much better for those specific vehicles and pair very nicely with a ThinkPad ;)

[@MyPlayHouse]

Thank you.

Famous VAG rubberized plastics. 2015 car and thanks to pealing rubber coat interior looks like 15 years old car. Nowdays diagnostic tools it's in 90% Android tablet with "glued" interface + app for diagnostics. Very important parameter for that kind of scanner is readouts per second. 6 readouts per second is good for one parameter. If we are looking at 6 parameter at once it gives one readout per parameter per second.

I do not follow..

[@johncollins8304]

Since it must be cable connected, and this means it is being charged what is the point of the usb charger and the mains plug? Thanks! Just got one today to find out why my Corsa/Opel Twintop won't start.

[@MyPlayHouse]

It charges from the car,, but also from the adapter, if you want to do that.

[@johncollins8304]

@@MyPlayHouse Thanks. I've realised that for 365€ I get a "free" tablet that I can use with other tablet and phone while searching why the damn tool says No codes found when there is clearly lots wrong with a car that fires but cuts out. I've learned that a low battery will completely bugger up the cpu. Great.

[@MarzNet256]

Pre-scan tool enlightenment: Check Engine Light on....on my God!...what's wrong?! Post-scan toll enlightenment: Check Engine Light on...I wonder what that is..Yay!!! I can't wait to check it out. I have the xTool A30D which I paid $135 for...same as D7 but with bluetooth and you provide the Android device.

[@MyPlayHouse]

Yarh,, being able to see what is is complaining about,, makes a big differences. :-)

[@tmyrdal]

Do that one support the car DS7 Crossback suv?

[@MyPlayHouse]

I don’t know that car 🤔

[@RafaJakubowskistudio]

If this is your first time testing the car, it's a good idea to erase all fault codes and reconnect again tomorrow. Errors are divided into active and historical.

[@MyPlayHouse]

Thank you!

[@gabtheone]

HV battery mean high voltage battery for EV or Hybrid

[@MyPlayHouse]

Thank you!

[@bristolharris4118]

Can the xtool d7 or d8 remove Audi component protection?

[@MyPlayHouse]

I can with 110% guarantee, assure you that I don’t have a clue 😳 sorry.

[@CrOwbaRVids]

Can anyone tell me how much does an import fee cost for your countries? Because my country charges an amount close to double the price of the device. Thank you in advance

[@MyPlayHouse]

This was handled by Amazon for me,,, it was not that expensive..

[@MyPlayHouse]

Hi SKY NET CYBER SYSTEM 3 TECH Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-) Thank you for watching! :-)

Morten - Do an oli change 👍 thats easy 👍

[@MyPlayHouse]

My nice mechanic does that for me 😬

[@FintaruS]

But can It do a forced dpf regeneration?

[@MyPlayHouse]

Sorry I didn’t know 😳 what is that?

[@FintaruS]

@@MyPlayHouse in a diesel car you have to clean your out gasses, so enter your DPF (diesel partikel filter).. The car can do it by itself.. If you drive long trips, and "high" rpm's.. But some times you just need to force a cleaning..

[@daveshostack4950]

is there a cheaper scan tool that does the same things or more things for less money

[@MyPlayHouse]

I have done one more video,,, kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGPCpmadbp1pocksi=y7t_YrJNWyi65VCt But it is much in the same prices range.

[@reignblombergh6959]

Will this rewrite vin?

[@MyPlayHouse]

Sorry I do not know that :-/

[@waterflame321]

Perchance are we still getting the safety video as a normal video?

[@MyPlayHouse]

I am in Portugal 🇵🇹 and needed a video to make ends meet,, until I have one ready from down here. 😬

@@MyPlayHouse no rush. I assumed you were going to your other house. Have fun!

Mercedes, oldest car brand still existing. but did not see it in the menu?

[@MyPlayHouse]

I am sure it is there.

[@EmmanuelRAYMOND69]

Can we play Doom or Tetris with ? 🤔

[@MyPlayHouse]

Yes the tablet can,,, but way way cheaper options for this is widely available 🤔

[@Arachnoid_of_the_underverse]

Poor alignment of the timing belt is not good ,it could cause extensive mechanical damage especially if the tapping timings causes them to hit the piston. Some of the cheaper devices are only readers and wont access certain manufacturers menus or reset things such as service menus. Forscan also provide a freeware software package to work with certain ODB2 adapters via a laptop for Ford, Mazda, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles..

[@MyPlayHouse]

It was a engine mounting sensor of some sort that came on,, after having the timing belt replaced. No reason to believe they did not do that perfectly.

[@jamesgordon7608]

The dealer would charge him 4 times the price of the unit. Then tell him other things need fixing. He is complaining this unit is too good for its money. Should be don't buy go directly to dealer warning. False advertising.

[@MyPlayHouse]

Well I have already had little issues that I could reset myself, and had the air-con pump replaced under warranty,, kind of helped by this.

[@jamesgordon7608]

@@MyPlayHouse I'am now even more baffled why you would spend the coin to buy this unit instead of downloading a free scan app to your phone. Like "Car Scan" and reset and read codes with a 3 dollar ELM327.
