What is Bi-directional Control (Active Test)
- Bi-directional Control is the pro-level feature that separates this LAUNCH scanner from most code readers & scan tools -- also called active test, actuator test, functional test, system test, or something similar.
- The bi-directional scanner doesn’t just retrieve information from the vehicle computer systems. It also allows you to send commands to the vehicle; to test the functionality of a given system, just like a tech at a dealership.
What Can Bi-Directional Control (Active Test) Do
- Manually activate mechanical & electronic components to test sensors, valves, and solenoids.
- Reduce diagnostic time by performing specific tests to measure the functionality of various components.
- Narrow down part or system problems by switching functions on and off through bi-directional tests, so more quickly locate and repair malfunctions.
- For Example: EVAP Test / VTEC Test / ETCS (TAC) Test / A/C Clutch / F-lue Pump ON/OFF / All Injectors Stop / One Injector Stop / Cruise Control Cancel History / VTC Test / Cylinder Cranking Speed Variation Test / Idle Stop Starter Counter Check / Cylinder AF Test / DI F.uel Pressure Test / Activation A/C Compressor / Fan 1 control circuit / F.uel pump electronics / Glow time control module 1 / Relay for reserve coolant pump / Throttle valve control unit, and more.
- [REMINDER]: The options programmed into the vehicle will determine the range of options available.
Use Scenario: How to Use Bidirectional Control
- The vehicle's check engine light is on. You don't know what's wrong, but the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) indicates an issue with the "EVAP Purge Solenoid Circuit".
- You command the purge valve to open with bi-directional controls on this LAUNCH scanner. But you find the fuel trim levels do not change as expected.
- So next, you send a direct command to drive the purge valve to open and close.
- The f-uel trim levels finally change, indicating that the purge solenoid is sticking.
- Now you know that the purge solenoid needs to be replaced.
- The process takes less than 10 minutes. If test manually? 3X times as long!
What is ECU Coding?
What Can ECU Coding Do?
- Make Module Replacement: When a vehicle's ECU or other electronic modules are replaced, coding process is necessary to ensure that the new ECU is properly calibrated to the vehicle's components, and correctly integrated into the vehicle's network.
- Make Personalization: with this obd2 scanner diagnostic tool, you can customize your car setting to meet preferences, and disable unnecessary functions that you don't like or need.
- Manage Complex ECU Issues: The ECU is a critical component as it controls the engine's perf**mance, f*el efficiency, and e-mi**ions. Through this scan tool’s Coding, you can ensure proper communication / coordination between different components, so to effectively fix issues such as low fu*l efficiency, mysterious power loss, and unknown faults in mechanical parts.
- Personalization, Make General Model Be Deluxe
- Car manufacturers often integrate hidden features inside a general model that are typically ex-clusive to deluxe cars. For example: revised f.uel consumption calculation, seat belt alarm, automatic start/st*p, daytime running lights, cruise control, comfortable windscreen washer, welcome light, and others.
- This car diagnostic scanner can flash most of above hidden functions by simply activating them, or turn off unneeded functions as required. So whether you are a pro mechanic or just a car owner working only your vehicle, this scan tool might just shift your diagnostics game: save a fortune or boom business!
