Original Autel Diagnostic Tools

Good news, Autel recently published updates to the 808 line of tools. And these updates are specifically massive for the Autel MaxiCOM MK808 Scanner.  Autel MK808 basically performs special functions but lacks bi-directional control or active testing before. In Autel's 808 line, only the MP808 series had bi-directional testing, but this is no more. The MK808 & MX808 can now conduct active tests.  Bi-directional active tests are a critical diagnostic tool for professionals. Because it enables you to issue commands to actuators or components in the car to help establish functionality as you troubleshoot and fix car problems.  If you have an active subscription, all you need to do is to download the system update that is currently available if you haven't done. Then go ahead to install the relevant individual manufacturer updates. Look out for the ones that list active tests as part of what the updates brings. If out of subscription, you need to purchase a subscription t...

There is a check engine light showing on the dashboard of a 2020 BMW Mini Countryman. So I’m gonna use Autel MaxiCOM MK808 OBD2 Scanner to reset it. It also works on a lot of other makes, models, and years. For more advanced functions, you may choose Autel MK808TS , MK808BT as well. Diagnostics >> EOBD >> Autoscan >> OK >> DTC & FFD >> Read codes  Autel MK808 tells a fault code: P0103: Mass or volume air flow sensor “A” circuit high. In fact, I’ve already changed the mass airflow sensor, but the Mini is still getting a warning light. So I need to use MK808 to clear codes. Clear DTC >> Yes No-fault codes were detected. Let’s start the engine, if the check engine light goes off then it’s done. Yeah, it’s actually gone off. Sometimes if it doesn’t work, you can select a specific vehicle instead of EOBD. In addition, it’s worth mentioning that purchasing the Original Autel Diagnostic Tool on www.obd2shop.co.uk can protect your vehicle from da...
