10 full OBD2 diagnostic modes:

With its 10 OBD2 test modes, THINKOBD 500 is compatible with most OBDII compliant cars to read and clear fault codes, display live data, test O2 sensors, test on-board monitors, test components and display vehicle information, etc.

1. Pass an emissions test

With this analysis tool, you don't need to drive endlessly, constantly returning to the repair shop for a new test.

You can perform a quick check of the vehicle to determine if it is ready to pass the emissions test.

2. Preparation for the I/M test

Check the readiness status of the control system. This is an excellent function to use before having a vehicle inspected to verify its compliance with a roadworthiness test.

3. O2 Sensor Test

Retrieve the O2 sensor test results for the most recent tests performed by the vehicle's on-board computer.

4. Onboard Monitor

View the results of the On-Board Monitor tests. The tests are useful after maintenance or after clearing the memory of a vehicle's control module.

5. Obtain effective diagnostic results

Your repair work can be completed in a short time using the THINKOBD 500 .

6. Vehicle Information

Display the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), Calibration Identification Number (CIN), Calibration Verification Number (CVN), and other information about the vehicle being tested.

7. EVAP Test

The Mode $08 command tells your car to start an "evaporative emissions control system" test, in order to prevent fuel from evaporating from your tank and contribute to the emissions test.

This way you can check your repair immediately, without waiting a few days (or more) for your car to perform it automatically.

8. Freeze frame data

Take a snapshot of the car's precise conditions when an error code triggers the check engine light, to help you identify the problem.

9. Live Data Stream

Display real-time PID data from the ECU (as analog inputs and outputs, digital inputs and outputs, and system status information broadcast on the vehicle data stream).

The live data produced is accurate and tells you exactly what you need to know about your vehicle.

10. DTC Code Search

Each code in THINKOBD is accompanied by a description to help technicians diagnose and repair vehicles efficiently.
This will save you the trouble of going online to search for the meaning of a diagnostic error code. You can also simply click on the selected error code to get a more detailed definition.
