Thank you Ron!

For all cars or same brand cars

Hi New Atlantis Republic! yep! if fact here is my other video on how to do that kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mbqIdZmJyq3XqXU.html Hope this helps, Cheers!

Welcome to the channel Brain! Ah yes you can see a list of some of the functions the scanner supports at the 8:10 mark. However Launch does accept Vin numbers to confirm if it will support the function you need it to (since this varies from car to car) Hope this helps, Cheers!

@@AlexAutoFun Good information. Cheers.

@@brainfleming8756 You're welcome!

Hi Carl! Correct, I cover this in more detail at the 7:30 mark. Cheers!

Hi darr2! here you kzfaq.info/get/bejne/btt3m5qnpriVcYE.html Hope this helps, Cheers!

Hi Targip Gadponson! the listing (link to it in the video description) from Launch shows that it can access the radio and multimedia function. However it won't say how much detail you will be able to see since this varies from Car Model and Yr (some support more or less PIDs). The easiest way to confirm is to contact Launch, they accept vin numbers and can check to see if the function you need will be supported before you actually order one. Hope this helps. Cheers!

@@AlexAutoFun Thanks for the info about asking Launch. Never thought about that. My current bluetooth OBD dongle is alright but I see ones like you've profiled here and it's very tempting. I need to know if my integrated HVAC/radio is bad or if it's something else like BCM, controls, or power because the procedure to take the dash apart is a beast. Thanks again.

@@targipgadponson5674 You're welcome Targip! yeah definitely not fun to tear down a dash...

@@targipgadponson5674 You're welcome! hopefully you can get you issue resolved, Cheers!

Hi Bradley! Yes the scanner does support ABS and SAS service modules, however actually being able to activate a specific component varies from car to car (vehicles have different levels of control, some allow you to active more things than others) Launch does accepts VIN numbers if you want them to check if it will be able to access the specific function you need. Cheers!

Hi Brad! Here you go kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mpeneaRkzNnVYmQ.html And I have more scanner reviews on my channel in the playlist "OBD2 Scanner Reviews" if you like to compare them. Cheers!

Hi Damien! SAS is included in this tool. Cheers!

Hi CreationTool! yes some (but not all) cars do support controlling the trunk release via a bidirectional tool, Launch accepts Vin numbers, so they can check if the tool will support the function you need it to before buying. Hope this helps, Cheers!

@@AlexAutoFun thanks for your response. It's a BMW Z4 E89. The trunk is stuck closed due to a roof failure. When a roof sensor fails it automatically stops the trunk lid from opening. People use such tools to release the trunk by triggering the actuator. I've seen it done before, I'm hoping this tool will support this function.

@@creationtools9541 Yeah that makes sense, well please let us know if Launch confirms if it supports this actuator please let us know or if you get it to work I'm sure It will help someone else who may have this same issue. Cheers!

Hi Jon-Boy3! if you are working on BMW, RR or Mini you shouldn't have to but Launch does accept VIN's if you sent that in to them they can confirm the scanner can access the function you need before purchasing. Hope this helps, Cheers!

@@AlexAutoFun thank you for the reply. It’s the Benz version I’ve purchased from Amazon. I’ll have to see what functions are available once it arrives.

@@EliteTaskForce1 You're welcome! nice I really think you should be covered, so far I been using this one quite a bit and haven't had a need to purchase any additional modules for it. Cheers from California!

Hi John! While this tool covers multiple car systesms, the best way to confirm if a particular function is covered is to contact Launch as they accept Vin numbers so they can check and confirm if the scanner will support it or suggest if a different tool model is needed. Hope this helps, Cheers!

@@AlexAutoFun ok thanks for your response!

@@JohnThomas-yf3gw You're welcome!

Hi Zeeshankazi! Reset services are included along with free updates as explained on the video. Cheers!

@@AlexAutoFun thank you

@@zeeshankazi You're welcome!

@@AlexAutoFun I am a little bit confused whether to go for Launch x431 elite or Foxwell NT650 elite. I would appreciate it if you could help me out. I own a tenth Gen Honda Civic Sedan with R18Z1 engine. I just want whichever scanner I purchase should perform 4 functions; Throttle calibration, idle relearn, EPB, Brake air bleeding and ABS SRS code reading. Hope to hear from u soon.

@@zeeshankazi Hi Z! Unfortunately I have not tested the NT650 so I can't comment on it's performance. However if you need support for the Civic then this Creader Elite will likely not be the right scanner for you as it is only available on the car brands listed on the video description. If you need Honda support, I would recommend one like this one kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mpeneaRkzNnVYmQ.html or this one if you want to go all out kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b9enfc-Gqr2yaXU.html Cheers!

Hi Me Guinness! Yes it can assuming that your car supports send this data out (not all car sensors support this) Launch also accepts VIN numbers if you want to check with them to confirm it will do the function you need. Hope this helps, Cheers!

@@AlexAutoFun thank you,will this allow to download additional data for other car brands like mercedes? Ta

@@meguinness1116 You're welcome! Ah remember this scanner will only have full functionality for the Car brand that you purchase (I put links to the different brands supported on the video description) So for example, if you buy the BMW on that will not have full features for the Mercedes one, you would want to instead buy the one for Mercedes. Here is another alternative if you are looking for a scanner that can support advanced features for multiple car brands kzfaq.info/get/bejne/is98hLyi3LHVZnU.html Hope this helps, Cheers!

@@AlexAutoFun I believe you can download other cars data ...but need to pay for it🤔

@@meguinness1116 Hi Me Guinness! Correct, that is another way of doing it. Cheers!

Oh wow! That definitely does not sound normal, I would recommend contacting Launch for tech support or contacting your vendor for exchange or return. Cheers!

@@AlexAutoFun can you link me their link bro 🙏🏽

Hi! If you got them from Amazon, you can use the contact vendor option for support, and if got them from a different place or want to bypass Amazon, you should be able to find Launch's contact info in the instruction manual included with the tool. Cheers!@@kickthekup

Hi James! Ah yes bi-directional scanners support activating components such as the fuel pump (this function is typically found inside the PCM module and in rare cases under the BCM module). However actually being able to activate a specific component varies from car to car (vehicles have different levels of control, some allow you to active more things than others) Launch does accepts VIN numbers if you want them to check if it will be able to access the specific function you need. Cheers!

Hi Ibrahim! Yes it does, you can see it around the 7:00 mark. Hope this helps. Cheers!

@@AlexAutoFun Im considering it, but there is also app based, with an bluetooth connect obc port. dont know which to choose from thnks for te great explanation

@@IGulpinar You're welcome Ibrahim! Yep lots of choices in the market! I have more OBD2 scan tools in my channel under the playlist "OBD2 Scanners" if you like to compare them. Hope this helps, Cheers!

😊 Thank you M Virdi!

Hi Randy! While I been able to use mine offline, most Bidirectional scanners require an internet connection at somepoint to be able to access the VIN database, for advanced functions that need a server response, for updates etc. (But do miss the days when we were able to fix cars without so much dependace on computers ugh) However, I do have more OBD2 Scanner reviews in my channel in the playlist "OBD2 Scanners" if you like see other brand models. Hope this helps, Cheers!

You shouldn't listen to everyone or anyone that doesn't read a owner's manual .. just got mine and and wifi "Is Not" required .. it does ends like some smart functions of the scanner since it is android based .. but it functions manually as well

Hi Taurus! Oh wow, I would recommend contacting Launch for support they may be able to walk your thru some troubleshooting steps, maybe you got a bad scanner. And if you want to try a different scanner I have more scanner reviews on my channel in the playlist "OBD2 Scanner Reviews" if you like to compare them. Hope this helps, Cheers!

@@AlexAutoFun thanks but this time i may run directly to the ista route
