Getting started

  1. Connect the scanner to the correct vehicle diagnostic connector.
  2. Switch the ignition on.
  3. Use AutoVIN where available or select the vehicle manually.
  4. Open the required vehicle system for codes, live data, service functions or active tests supported by the device.

Compatibility and generation

US V3.0 covers the six supported American vehicle makes in the iCarsoft US line. It supports CAN-FD on applicable modern GM and Chrysler platforms.

Coding scope: iCarsoft currently lists OE-level ECU coding for supported Ford, Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge applications; coding availability is not universal across every supported vehicle.

Software updates

iCarsoft US V3.0 includes lifetime free software updates with no annual diagnostic subscription. This generation is updated through a Windows PC / USB workflow rather than Wi-Fi.

Troubleshooting

AutoVIN does not identify the vehicle

Try manual vehicle selection and update the scanner first. AutoVIN availability varies by model and ECU.

A service or active-test function is missing

Functions are vehicle- and ECU-specific. A function listed for the scanner family may not be exposed by every model or model year.

A fault returns after clearing

Record relevant freeze-frame and live data first. Persistent active faults need diagnosis and repair rather than repeated clearing.

Product and upgrade

Technical information is based on iCarsoft’s current product documentation and official user manual.
