KINGBOLEN EDIAG PLUS

This little thing is a amazing for the price. Heck it's amazing for more than it's price. Has tons of features. Haven't had any issues with anything I've tried to do with it. I found this while looking for a budget bidirectional scan tool with multiple reset and service functions. This one checked off all my needs and then some. I wasn't sure if I wanted a Bluetooth scan tool because the other ones I've had were lacking in areas and sometimes connections were touchy. This one linked up easily and as soon as I plug it into a port it downloads the vin and the data files it needs for the car. So much data at your finger tips with this along with functions only available on units twice this price. If you want a feature rich scan tool that doesn't break the bank this is the one for you. The only thing I can say I wish was better is the app. The app does take a little bit of getting used to. But once you play with it some it becomes easy to navigate.

Perfect for the mobile tech or the DIY weekend mechanic. Many dongles out there plug directly into the DLC on the vehicle which may not fit depending on interior trim. The Ediag has an extension which puts the module away from the connector. This makes it far easier to plug in on any vehicle. 3 status LED's show the condition of communication.This is a full scan tool, not just a code reader. It enables live data on all modules (ABS, SRS, GEM, etc) and bi-directional control capability. Pic is showing a 2000 Expedition, along with data pids and 02 sensor graphing.I recommend spending the time going through the set up instructions. It may seem at first there are many models missing. However, once you do your first diagnostic scan (I chose EOBD on a 2002 dodge ram) it will open up the entire main list of vehicle makes. Each make as you choose, will have to be initially down loaded prior to scanning. After that, you will only have to update it as they become available. This makes it easier as you only have to download the vehicle brands you work on.Comes in a hard case. Small enough to keep in the glove box, or a corner in the tool box.

I have had several professional scan tools and I like all of them but this one for the size and compatibility with vehicles in portability is an incredible value and a very good tool. It does all makes all models and will do almost all the test and bidirectional functions you need for not even a fraction of what a professional full size scan tool cost. This is used professionally and at home and I have no problems with it whatsoever and the support is second to none. If you have any questions you contact Kingbolen and get excellent customer service..They always respond swiftly.. and lastly, it's amazing because you can download the app to any Android or Apple device. It can be a tablet, a phone, any device, and the program will work perfect on whatever device you have. It turns your device into a high-end scan tool. I use a 8-in Lenovo tablet that I use and it works perfect with this tool!! And one of the most amazing features is you get three full years of updates that's unbeatable!! Don't hesitate if you're on the fence you won't be sorry!😉

I purchased a scanner, because I do a lot of mobile mechanics work, and wanted some thing that was portable and easy to carry. I was a little skeptical because I’ve never heard of the brand name, but wood really drew me was the features. This tool is definitely a good value since it’s Bi-Directional, yes BI-DIRECTIONAL. Rarely have I seen a bidirectional scanner for under $400. So this is definitely a steal for being able to test freeze frame data and more. It has 15 maintenance functions, the most commonly used ones like the brake reset, oil light reset and battery coding which I like. You do have to download the application for it, and it runs off of your phone so as long as you have Wi-Fi or service, it will be functional. Now the only things I noticed is the user interface isn’t the easiest to get used to but once you get the hang of it, it’s not too bad. Also, it did not support a 2019 Ford (USA) Which I thought was a little strange even after doing the upgrades. Hopefully they get that fixed up but otherwise for $150 or less I don’t think there’s a scanner that can do as much as this! Handy little tool.
