LAUNCHOBD2 Scanner CRP123X V2.0 Elite Car Scanner, 2025 Lifetime Free Update Diagnostic Scan Tool with SAS/Throttle Reset, ABS SRS Transmission Car Check Engine Code Reader, Auto VIN, Battery Test

This scanner works very well. I have Been A mechanic for years and have used scanners a lot. This scanner does more than the average user will ever need. I am impressed in this price range how much this will do. from engine to body codes. allows testing of individual components . I like the component locator on screen, makes it quicker to find sensors when working on a vehicles that are not familiar to you. The best part of this scanner is the free lifetime software updates. anyone that uses these professionally will tell you that software updates cost a small fortune and are constantly needed to stay up on current vehicles. I have used this scanner several times since purchasing on different manufactures and it has preformed well. set up was easy just follow along the on screen directions when you first turn it on. I like the fact that it allows you to choose what manufactures you want to load into it when updating. Overall I recommend this scanner to anyone that wants a bidirectional scanner as opposed to a simple code reader. If you take the time to learn all the features this scanner offers you will not be disappointed,

Compared with Launch crp123 and ancel fx2000 , this launch crp123x is better. The screen was nice and displayed clear. What impressed me most, was that the unit was combined the AutoVIN technology and wifi update, being the best option available in the market in terms of speed, performance, data analysis and data transfer. It immediately identified the car, and I didn’t have to enter the year, make, engine, etc. manually, which allowed me to easily read and retrieve diagnostic trouble codes, to perform a quick scan. And I was getting tired of making numerous trips to mechanics every time when the SRS light blinked and stayed on. To my satisfactory, this scan tool could reset that error light then I could end up saving time and money. And it also had the feature of updating via Wi-Fi. Then I can use its newest software in a simple way, so great. Keeping the tool up to date is important to ensure that getting the best software coverage. Overall, I was and am satisfied. :-)

Update: The obd connector has deformed slightly making it an annoyance. It is soft plastic so you have to reshape it before trying to plug in. 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee did not auto detect and unit malfunctioned. Even after entering the vin it still did not work. I had to close out and go into obd instead. It entered a false mileage and location on the report as well. Still a great unit but loses a star.The CRP123x has some really nice features going for it. Set up is super simple, the tool walks you through everything. The upgrade feature makes this tool special, your notified of pending updates and they are free for life. It has a strong built-in lithium battery and a screen saver which helps it last a long time between charges.Pros:Easy user interfaceTouchscreenLifetime updatesWi-fi connectivityStrong batteryCons:Boot timeProtective coveringThis scan tool covers the four main systems very well, I was able to pull some codes that my Creader VII+ did not. Even the user manual was well done, it’s not perfect but a major improvement over most. I like the fact it has built-in storage, I'm showing 2.7gb available. Having wi-fi connected allows you to send a health report and screenshots which is helpful. The tool took me to the web to look up information on trouble codes smoothly. It does everything advertised pretty well and the battery voltage graph is nice. The embroidered nylon storage case is also a great touch.The tool takes approximately 46 seconds to boot and auto detect, which seems a bit long but might be improved on a future update. The health report automatically generates and you have to exit out in order to use other functions. This took me a few minutes to figure out, you have to quit and hit the home button. The protective cover seems firm and I don’t like the red color. Let’s face it, we get dirty, greasy hands and a black color would hide this better. Launch included a feedback section on the tool which tells me they care about what we think.All in all, I really like this tool. I keep this in my trunk to use when I’m out or helping a friend. If you’re a DIYer or aspiring technician I think this this would be a good purchase. Having lifetime updates helps future proof the tool and adds value to the purchase. I have already had two updates in under a week so far.

I bought this new obd2 tester to replace my old one. I like the fact this unit will start charging as you go it up to your vehicle. Makes it easier to use. Plus it has a charge feature to use with charging adaptor.I have used it 3 times so far and it works great.Yes I recommend this product...

I also own the Launch CreaderVII+ and upon taking this CP123X out of the box, I immediately notice how much bigger the unit is over the VII+. The unit is at least double in size. The screen is very bright and easy to read. I really like how I can see the battery life just by quickly pressing the power button. Wifi upgrades is a definite plus also. I tested two vehicles with the unit, a 2004 Nissan Titan and a 2005 Chrysler Town and Country. The 123X found the VIN numbers rather quickly. I was pleasantly surprised by the speed of the unit. Another great feature that I like about this unit is the on the go battery voltage. The user interface is easy to navigate as well. You don't have to be an electronic genius to use this unit. As far as the exterior, this unit has a very rugged casing, so it is made to withstand a short drop without affecting the unit. I also like the soft pouch used for storing the unit and cabling. It would have been nice to get an update to reset oil change lights, but this is minor. I am very impressed with this diagnostic tool and have a lot of confidence in the Launch brand. I look forward to see what is next. (This review was part of a promotion by Launch.)
