OBD2 Scanner TOPDON AD500S for Four-System Diagnostics and Five Common Service Reset Functions
OBD2 Scanner TOPDON AD500S for Four-System Diagnostics and Five Common Service Reset Functions
OBD2 scanner TOPDON AD500S helps car owners and mechanics investigate faults in the engine, ABS, SRS and transmission systems. It reads and clears diagnostic codes, displays live data, and uses AutoVIN scanning for vehicle identification.
Five service functions cover oil reset, BMS reset, ABS bleeding, DPF reset and throttle adaptation. A 5-inch color touchscreen, button navigation, data recording and playback, DTC lookup, and Wi-Fi software updates support practical garage diagnostics; function availability varies by vehicle make, model and year.
Why It Stands Out
- Diagnose four key systems to investigate engine, ABS, airbag and transmission warning issues from one scan tool.
- Access five commonly used service functions for routine maintenance tasks: oil reset, BMS reset, ABS bleeding, DPF reset and throttle adaptation.
- Review changing vehicle information more clearly by combining up to four live-data streams in a graph, then recording and playing back results.
- Identify supported vehicles quickly through AutoVIN scanning and look up code meanings through the built-in DTC library.
- Navigate from the 5-inch color touchscreen or rubberized selection buttons, including while wearing mechanic gloves.
- Update software over Wi-Fi without monthly or yearly update fees; the scanner does not work with 5G networks.
- Save diagnostic findings for later review and print recorded data through a connection to a Windows PC.
