Honestly the tools you use only compliment your knowledge and skill. You have an amazing skill set and vast knowledge of vehicle theory of operation.

Ivan, I feel like I'm in excellent company. I bought a Thinktool Pros last week! First thing I did was a cam/crank correlation. Nice. Still, it isn't cheap and I saved for years thinking Autel or Launch would get my money. I got wind of these at just the right time and liked the ruggedness and warranty. Knowing it's basically Launch software I pulled the trigger. I do all the work on 4 cars + a few others from time to time. Hoping the investment pays for itself in money and time saved. Can't tell you how grateful I am for your videos and other "elite" masters like you. You guys help make the world a better place. Thank you!!!

Computers are narrow minded sometimes. Looked like a simple procedure to fix the idle. Thanks Ivan

Slickly done Ivan. Disappointed we didn't get to look under the hood though! No parts required, naturally...

Another fine video. Thanks Ivan.

Hi Ivan Can you Please do a tool review on the thinktool pro.

Yep indeed you can do it manually without the tool but it's a pain

Ivan, I took your recommendation and purchased ThinkTool Pros. I there a secret to using the rear camera of I'm I just missing it. Thanks. BTW, I really enjoy your diagnostic approach and no part fixes. Keep the videos coming.

Many times I've come across the same situation (Nissan's, GM's, etc.) but found myself helpless with the Snap-On VIRUS. Glad to say it won't happen again... Thanks for the "April code" on Amazon and for saving me $150.00...🙂👍

The "ThinkTool/ThinkDiag" folks put out some good stuff. I've got the DIY ThinkDiag and it is now my primary scan tool, and installed (hacked) the software onto my tablet, so I have a "poor man's" tablet-style scanner. Thanks as always, Ivan!

IAVL Or idle air volume learn. Needs to be performed. Because the carbon was removed from the throttle body now there's extra air going in . Now that's assuming the computer will even allow you to do it. Early Nissan models for whatever reason do not like setting IAVL. I had to change out ECM and throttle bodies to get that to set. And the older altima, they even had a recall to try and fix that . which it never did.

HEY YOU JIPED US... NO BONUS FOOTAGE????? no on a serial note im going to check out that scan to right now!!!!! thanks for the vid. and the heads up on the scan tool!!!!!!!!

"Stop telling me I have to calm down!" Is that a song on the radio, or the idle circuit?

I cleaned both throttle bodies and butterfly position reset and idle relearn on 2012 G37 with 80K. Did not disconnect the wiring harnesses. Quit a bit of timing and footwork but the ecu set everything perfectly. Your tool is great for a professional but it can be done "manually" if one has some auto savvy. I did not have a code but idle was slightly high before cleaning. I would hate to see what the dealers charges for the cleaning and relearn... Throttle seemed a little more crisp.

My 06 Frontier has that test. I used it one time after cleaning the throttle plate and bore.

Nice and easy to do on scanner to reset the idle speed. I like that, wish you can do with simple scanner. Nice video! Many thumbs up

Thanks Ivan!

Thank you Ivan, another great video!!!

Good stuff bud

Dayum, and I'm out here resetting my ECU everytime I do something minor to my 99 Montero Sport lol

Might be a good idea to disconnect the battery before changing spark plugs or cleaning a throttle body or MAF sensor. I even disconnect the battery on my Nissan Pathfinder when bleeding brakes.

Need that 1080p resolution please. 720p is 6 maybe more years ago.

Yeah Ivan. Nice scan tool.works really great. Where is the extra bonus videos?

I've always wondered how you liked your launch scanner. You're one of the few KZfaq mechanics to use Launch over Autel and now this one which I've never seen before.

Great job, thinktool is really amazing

I recently got the ThinkScan 609 and it was nothing but problems out of the gate. My first step was to update. Failed with serial communications error (more than one computer). OK, let's try that nifty thumb drive that came with it. Nope, serial number not recognized. So after many back and forth emails, it finally updated. But in the process, I found that ThinkCar and LAUNCH share a common update tool and registration database, perhaps even more. But at one point they said they couldn't verify my device was one of theirs (despite sending a picture of it). Overall, not impressed with the company but the little scanner for around $100 isn't bad. When I asked why it couldn't be updated via USB, their response was that the update program hadn't been updated for USB updates yet. And oddly enough, it's called the "Product Updata" tool. I believe that's the Chinese translation. I'm not ready to invest more money in a company that's apparently selling beta software.

We have a surging idle. Simular vehicle p0507

Awesome

I really 'think' I might get this tool to replace my OTC. My last update cost me 1/2 of a new Think tool purchase...

Like #39 Thanks for the video!

Ivan, I was trying to perform cpk relearn on Accord but didn’t find the option. Does the Thinktool do this.

My car was doing this once the idle was stuck at 2000 rpms not drivable like that. It ended up being two things causing it a bad TPS and MAF both causing issues Idle Air Control was okay but the MAF was reading wrong and keeping the IAC open and TPS wasn’t reading right either so sometimes on acceleration car just stall cause computer could not see throttle input and the wrong MAF readings just screwed everything up

Would the Thinktool work for recoding my 1998 BMW ABS module?

The Think tool looks like a rebranded Launch?

I’ve been watching a lot of your diagnostic trouble shooting videos lately and it seems the Think Tool Pro is your go to scan tool now. I’ve got the Autel Maxsys906bt but I’m liking the format of this Think Tool Pro better from what I’m seeing.

Like one of these tools ,just for my own cars..

But why this tool is poor in the special functions test a few things you can tests

Looks like its just a rebranded Launch?

Great video. How many scanner do you have now, Ivan 👀👀.

Great video

Hi Interesting test unit? Could you let us know the performance , does it compare with the Varus, It's capabilities and maybe the price?

Nissan altima from 2009 until 2012 we have problem with the throttle body idle could you make a video of nissan altima in my country some guys thange a part ECU to fix it its not able to autel or launch or gscan to learn idle adaptation but I don't know about this one( think tools)

I bought one of these recently and it works great on my BMW. But, on my 06 Infiniti G35 it's not seeing any modules except ECM and TCM. It doesn't recognize IPDM, BCM, ETC.. just wondering you came across this?

1:20 in, ac clutch stuck? relay, hmm,

Which autel model would you say this scanner is equivalent to? 905, 906bt or 908p?

Nissan cars seem to very common with idle problems after cleaning the throttle body!

good pm sir from manila how much the price off your thinktool sir thank you ou

What, no BONUS FOOTAGE this time ???? BOO, HISS !!! PS-- Just Kidding !!! 😄😄😄😄

I had an 02 Altima 3.5 I finally gave up on. Verus, MaxiDas, Diagun, nothing would do it. I looked like an idiot to the customer. I don’t know where they took it. I think the dealer. But I won’t b cleaning or disconnecting the throttle body on that car again. If the Stink will do that, I’m buying one. Nissans r a pain for some things.

Good stuff.

Ivan, does your new scan tool support OBD-1? Looks like similar software like the Launch but you weren’t able to communicate with a vintage GM...

What's the difference between the Pro and Pro S? thank you

Ivan, Launch based software meaning same software? same company ? or do you recommend one over the other? I have the Diagun

How good is it on GM and Ford ? Will it allow you to change control modules and get them on line with the rest of the modules and the pcm ?

Ok

Would the ECM eventually learn the correct idle speed, or do you need the tool to set it?

Maybe that think tool could scan and troubleshoot the gas pipeline computers out in the East Coast. Lol

👍👍

How's the battery life?

Great video Ivan. Q: what if you have to install a MAF sensor into this same car you gotta have a scan tool.

👍👍👍👍

stupid question can I mix the GM coolant with the green coolant ? thanks

👍

Ivan, not sure about I35, but on G35, you must disconnect the negative battery terminal before cleaning the throttle body. Otherwise you have to do the Idle Re Learn foot dance procedure as shown on the web.

Nissan!!!!

I'd love to have a scanner, but a thousand bucks is hard to come by and probably not wise for the non-pro like me.

A very handy tool :-D, looks like a baby snapOn tool. It's a shame that car manufacturers keep adding "Special modes" to there cars, repairers having to buy yet another bloody tool :-( They do deserve a good slap with a wet fish :-D (Monty python madness).

Hi, what do You think : autel vs thinktool?

Amazingly awful music playing in the background

investing in crypto now is the only big chance of making money
