About this product

This is a full-system OBD diagnostic tool from the Launch S80 line, sold as a scanner for reading and clearing faults across the modules of a car rather than only the engine. Full-system is the claim worth testing: it should mean the tool reaches body, transmission, ABS, airbag and comfort modules, and how many of those it actually opens depends on the software for the brand you work on, so ask for the coverage list by make. The model code in the seller's title is written in a shortened form, so confirm the exact version and what is in the box before paying, because the connector set and the case differ between kit variants. Special functions, actuation tests and any coding capability are what separate a scanner from a service tool, and they are also the parts that need written confirmation. What it will not do is replace the manufacturer's own software for programming, and update terms and coverage are for the seller to confirm.

Pros & cons

Pros


  • Full-system reading, so body and chassis modules are in scope and not just the engine
  • Handheld with a screen, which suits a quick check at the car
  • Launch's S80 line is a common platform, so cables and consumables are easy to find
  • Reading and clearing codes covers most of what a first diagnostic pass needs

Cons


  • The model code in the listing is shortened, so confirm the exact version before paying
  • Coverage per brand decides whether full-system applies to your cars, ask for the list
  • Special functions and coding need written confirmation; full-system does not imply them
  • Update terms are a recurring cost, not a one-off
