In order to diagnose and remove fault, connect Fcar auto scanner to diagnostic socket of vehicle, as shown in Pic.4-37.It has special functions as follow, such as engine off-cylinder running, test injection solenoid valve response time, calibrate and replace injector, take rapid sample of engine data, user can limitedly alter ECU program etc. under engine manufacturer restricted working condition or characteristic parameter.…

In order to meet different types of vehicle fault diagnosis interface, we designed flexible drive circuit after comprehensive analysis of structural features about all currently existing vehicle fault diagnostic interface communication circuit in the process of designing auto diagnostic tool. The so-called flexible drive circuit is a drive circuit that can configure flexibly. All kinds of structure elements have been preset in system and…

If you see a "check engine" or a "service engine soon" light in your instrument cluster; your car has stored a diagnostic trouble code. This means the computer system on your vehicle has detected a problem with the various systems it controls. Your car has many different sensors that monitor the various vehicle systems.



If the trouble code light has been illuminated your vehicle enters into "limp mode" this means it is running on a predetermined program that causes poor mileage…

Today's car is a very advanced machine. Long gone are the days when your mechanic would take the whole day inspecting the engine and other components in order to diagnose the vehicle's fault. With the installation of the car computer on most vehicles, diagnoses have become simpler and faster.



Most vehicles manufactured between 1992 and 1995 have an On Board Diagnostics I (OBD I) facility while those manufactured after 1996 have the OBD II. OBDs are defined as the electronic…

On most vehicles the connector is located at the driver's compartment. Once the diagnostic code scanner is plugged in you can retrieve auto diagnostic codes the engine computer has stored in its memory. These auto diagnostic codes are the same codes the dealer and repair shops use to replace sensors and clear codes.



Correct computer system function is essential for your car's engine to operate properly. Many engine run-ability problems can be…

Basic setting method and steps

① Turn on ignition switch and not start engine.(Take Santana 3000 as an example to illustrate matching process)

②Connect F3-D truck scanner (use OBD-II connector), select and click VW Audi, the screen will display as below:…

The whole control system of a vehicle is composed of many subsystems (sensors, actuator elements, power supply, controller) circuit composed. Therefore,…

In actual use, different vehicles can use the same diagnostic connector, such as OBD II, but pin of diagnosis signal might be distributed in different pins. In order to be compatible with different pins, output connector DB15 internal connection channel switching matrix of car diagnostic tool can realize arbitrary switching of 2-way 13 channels through channel switching matrix.

 Change-over switch…

Public data line is used for connection to F3-D truck scanner, Data line is used for communication with ECU as well as information communication with other vehicle electronic devices, such as electronic instrument panel and other devices. Some engines have two public data lines: one is in the whole wiring harness (engine side data line); another is separated from ECU harness,…

Take F3-D Heavy duty scanner as an example, to diagnose and remove fault, you need first connect F3-D truck diagnostic scanner to diagnostic socket of vehicle, as shown in Pic.4-37. It has special functions as follow, such as engine off-cylinder running, test injection solenoid valve response time, calibrate and replace injector,…

Automotive diagnostic scanner are devices used to read codes to establish a car's defects. These devices interpret codes and diagnose the problem, enabling the car owner to fix the car or to look for an automobile dealer to do it. You can either use the auto diagnostic tool directly by connecting it to the car or use it on a laptop to display the results of the diagnosis.

The auto code scanner Data stream study function can realize the automatic learn for the data parameters during the normal operation of vehicles, and save, compare to other vehicles whether their relevant data is abnormal, it helps the users to have a scientific management and accurate judgment for these operating parameters of various vehicle models, so that can improve the user’s vehicle repair and maintenance skills effectively and quickly.

Use…

With the development of car industry, cars have become much more complex than before. Thus, auto manufacturers began integrating on-board diagnostic (OBD) systems, which continuously monitor the vehicle's functions. For example, if an engine problem appears and it is serious enough, the "check engine" light goes on, which gives the driver indication that it is time for a repair. Thanks to the OBDII diagnostic systems,…

1, Q: Logos appear not move (picture freezes), no response after click on the screen?

  A: (1) In the case of shutdown, re-plug the SD card, then restart;

      (2) The upgrade is not successful result, re-upgrade the SD card or SD card for an upgrade.

      (3) upgrade operating method of automobile code reader: (SD card must be initialized before program updrade) to open Fcar official website, enter [ user name and password] - [Select Download Center] -…
