High-end diagnostic tool ‘launched’ into aftermarket
Date: Friday 06 August 2021
Launch UK has introduced its latest high-end diagnostic tool, the X-431 Euro Turbo, which has been specifically designed for challenging workshop conditions and is an upgrade from the highly regarded Launch PRO S.
Developed by Launch for the European market, the handy tool features all of the well-known attributes of Launch diagnostic software, including wide model coverage, powerful test functions, accurate test data and numerous special functions.
The quality, rugged 8-inch touchscreen tablet uses the Android 9.1 operating system for a smooth and feature-rich experience and the tablet housing features a useful ‘kickback’ stand and a new fool-proof charging port design.
It is supplied in a robust, hard case with all the necessary cables, including a wide range of OBD1 diagnostic connector adapters.
Using the latest Bluetooth technology, the tool allows technicians to move unhindered around the vehicle while carrying out diagnostic checks and tests, as the Euro Turbo communicates wirelessly with the latest DBS Car VCI©.
It also features Launch intelligent diagnostics, including automatic VIN recognition for over 70 popular manufacturers, loading the correct software by vehicle model and production year, providing a faster and more convenient method than manual selection.
Technicians can select from individual modules or by a whole vehicle health check that interrogates all modules, and it is easy to use as diagnostic trouble codes are clearly displayed with a full description. One click on the fault code also allows translation to many alternative languages.
Technicians can easily search for information on the fault code directly from the tablet using an Internet search engine, or alternatively using the optional Launch Guided Diagnostic function, powered by Haynes Pro.
The tool will also save the technician time, increasing efficiency in the workshop as an optional feature is included, whereby the Launch Professional Database can be integrated in X-431 Euro Turbo software, guiding the user from the DTC reading to the step-by-step testing and to the final solution.
X-431 Euro Turbo supports Google Service and printer APK from the Google Play store, as well as both 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi.
