New features and enhancements include:
Diagnostics Health Check Report – a new addition to the scan tools’ vehicle systems reports. It is a straightforward, customer-friendly scan report that simplifies results for vehicle owners. It includes traditional pre- and post-scan reports for garage use and syncs with Snap-on Cloud.
Custom Data List – This great time-saving feature allows the technician to select multiple data categories, to reduce the amount of PIDs you receive. This is critical when there may be multiple issues or you don’t have a code which means you are unable to use FastTrack® Intelligence Diagnostics.
As more and more OEMs are categorising the vehicle’s systems, meaning this feature will become imperative to the garage.
Update previous vehicle – an enhancement to the ‘Previous Vehicles and Data’ screen. It saves logged mileage and license plate into the vehicle’s historical record on the scan tool. Available on Snap-on scan tools.
