LANZAMIENTO X431 PRO3S+ Elite SmartlinkC V2 Escáner bidireccional J2534

This works flawless

This scanner does it all! Its bi directional, J2534 compliant, has a large touchscreen with stand, and accepts many accessories such as lab scope, horoscope, battery tester, etc. These launch scanners are also very good with European makes as well. I used to have a Snap On Triton D10 that I used until I found out about these. You get all of the same power for a 10th of the price, and you dont have to pay massive update fees every 6 months. What sets this specific scanner aside from other Launch models is the fact that it can program, and it will now scan the whole car much faster than previous models have in the past. I am a Launch customer for life.

I work at an independent repair shop, so I see a little bit of everything. I bought this because I wanted one scanner that could cover most of the cars that come through the door without spending tool-truck money. So far, it’s been great.One job I used it on was a 2018 Ford F-150 that had a rough-running problem and an intermittent misfire. The power-balance screen made it pretty obvious which cylinder was acting up. I could watch the misfire data and fuel trims at the same time, and the bidirectional tests helped me narrow things down without wasting time checking every possible part.I also used it on a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee that came in with several warning lights and communication codes. AutoAuth worked without much trouble, and the topology map was really helpful. It showed the …

Did not have much luck. Quite a weird exit button: instead of bringing you one step back, it kicks you out to a main screen. Every new start is an authentication check… having bad luck reading Mercedes data is wrong; for example, freeze frame registered a speed of 257 and a temperature of -58?! Seriously?!?!?!?! Another example, after resetting a “service A “, just got an error that service B is overdue now with over 12k.…. afraid to continue, do not cause any damage to the ECU

Okay, let’s get the main thing out of the way- this scan tool is awesome.For reference, I’m a ford senior master technician, and I have been in this field for 21 years. I got this scan tool because I’m the only one who works on non OE vehicles at my dealership, and I wanted something to provide as much coverage as possible. This tool does more than I hoped. It’s not my first Launch- I have a 4 year old x431 pro v 4.0+, a 2 year old crp91ebt and a 2 year old CReader 2.0. I like the larger screen, and decided that this year was the year to order a replacement for the 4.0+, and this scan tool was on sale. Large screen, faster processor, more ram, great coverage and compatibility, this filled all the boxes. It comes with the smart link 2.0, which plays nice with all the new networks.The …

UPDATE - I got it updated and It works better now. The dongle is still says unsupported mode (or something like that) but I just have to click ok for that to go away and it works fine. I hope I don't have to log in again because I have no idea where to log in or username and password to use.Initially, this scanner worked great—I registered it, and it did everything I needed. However, after an update, it started asking for a password. I logged in successfully the first time, but a few days later, it asked again, and my saved password no longer worked. No login method has worked since. I even tried the captcha, but I never received the PIN. At this point, the scanner is unusable, which is incredibly frustrating, especially since I purchased an extended warranty. I'll try a few more …

I bought this Launch X431 Pro3S+ Elite to replace my Launch X431 Pro3s+ that I bought back in 2022. The 2022 Pro3S+ is a great tool, and I had zero problems with it for over 2 years. I just bought the Pro3S+ Elite because of the expanding abilities that it can do. With the Pro3S+ Elite, one can add a 4 channel Scope to it, add a Sensor box, and HD trucks capabilities too. There are more capabilities than that so just research the tool in the description to learn about it, too many to name in this review. My older 2022 Pro3S+ cannot do these things, so this was my main priority for buying this Pro3S+ Elite. The Elite is much faster too. I expect great things from this tool. I expect no problems from it too, being the 2022 Pro3S+ gave me none. The Smartlink C box is a stand out too with …
