Why You Need All System Diagnostics?

• Quickly Locate Faults: Rapidly scan all accessible vehicle systems e.g. CEM, ECM, TCM, ABS/BCM, TPMS, SCS, VSC, PAS, E.P.B, ESP, EP.S, ASR, EBD, SCS, VSC, etc., helping auto mechanics quickly find the cause and location of the fault. This avoids the use of traditional methods, which may involve blindly taking things apart and checking them in the wrong way, thus can really slow you down and leave you exhausted.
• Improve Repair Quality: Auto mechanics can obtain accurate data support like Freeze Frame Data, Multiple PIDs Live Stream (in numbers & lists-default; wave patterns; merged graph) and test report Record & Replay, etc. to effectively repair faults.
• Increase Satisfaction: Customers always love it when you fix their car fast and get it right the first time. With AutoVIN & AutoScan technology (available for most 2006+ cars), this Autel scanner allows you to swiftly scan and fix faults in a short time.
• Reduce Repair Costs: By minimizing unnecessary disassembly and inspection, this all-system scan tool can help you significantly reduce cost savings in the repair process.
• Preventive Maintenance: Through all system diagnostics, Autel IM508S can monitor the status of important parts such as tires and brakes. Once an abnormality is detected, it can remind you to repair or replace them, preventing failures, reducing accidents and risks. Moreover, through this predictive maintenance, it can extend the service life of these components.

Why You Need Bi-directional Control (Active Tests)

• Precise Diagnosis: Active tests allow the diagnostic tool to send signals to the vehicle’s control unit to active-ate and test actuators, thereby determining whether these components are functioning properly. This helps mechanics to pinpoint issues accurately instead of relying on guesses or visual inspections.
• 3000+ active tests menus: for example – Turn on/off the radiator fan, lights, sound horn, f**l pump, etc. • Modulate the throttle • Open/close windows • Operate mirrors • Test the device acceleration, oil pressure control, vehicle level position, inlet & outlet valve, open brakes, wheel speed sensor supply, parking brake, among many others.
• Real Time-Saver: Active testing is like the fast-forward button for your car repairs. It is way quicker than the old-school methods, saving up to 50% of the time you’d usually spend figuring out what’s wrong according to our customer’s feedback. And sometimes it even spots the faulty area in just a few seconds. That’s quite impressive!
• Use Scenario - In the case of the V-W Magotan B7L, using the Active Test function of Autel IM508S, to check the fu**l pump by just flicking the ignition to the IG position. If you don’t hear the pump buzzing, there’s the problem – either the pump or its controls are acting up. This whole test is done in seconds to a minute, way quicker than the old way.
• Reduce Misjudgments: Statistics show that using the Active Test can reduce misjudgments caused by human factors by 10%, improving the accuracy of repairs. For a medium-sized repair shop that may conduct thousands of repairs annually, this calculates to tens of thousands of bucks in cost savings per year!
• Use Scenario - In the case of an Au-di A4L 2.0T experiencing severe engine idle shake. Not using the Active Test could lead to a misdiagnosis of a damaged crankcase ventilation valve, resulting in an unnecessary replacement. Replacing the crankcase ventilation valve can cost several hundred bucks. And so, the Active Test can help reduce this potential loss.
