Mine arrived yesterday from Amazon also
Spent the afternoon scanning and deleting historic issues
I have two issues left one I sort of know about:-
1. B1C57-14
System: BCM - Body Control Module
Description: Unused relay drive
Status: Permanent
No idea what this means
2. B1B78-84
System: HVAC Module
Description: System pressure
Status: Permanent
So that is why my AC doesn't work! ha
My D3 as completed 89700 miles
Nice to find out it has completed 0 miles in Mud, Sand, Rock Crawl modes, 31 miles in grass and snow
Really impressed with the unit

I also have the same fault (No1) no idea what it is.
It's a decent scanner for the money I bought my one direct.

Comparing the Autel AP200 to Launch ThinkDiag
Any chance anyone has had a go at Launch ThinkDiag from Think Car? Also a BlueTooth OBD2 Scanner. and from online reads/reviews equally seems like a capable tool. Would love to get feedback from anyone who has tried it out, especially on how it compares to the Autel AP200. Considering one of the two as my beginners/starter entry into DIY world?
@jenseneverest @arthurdent ?
Anyone?

Just how capable is this unit? For example if you have a duff speed sensor could it diagnose the fault and which wheel sensor was faulty?Once you have defeated the idiots any job is half done. Pity there are so many idiots to defeat.

yes it is fine with ABS, i have used it for both the disco and a fiat punto (dont ask lol) you get the live data reading for each wheel as well as current and historic fault codes.

Just got the unit. Have registered it but can’t for the life of me get the VCI code. Using an iPad Air 3 that is set to read QR codes. Do I have to plug it in to the connection under the dash and switch on the ignition? If so where from there? Scanning does nothing at all. Note there is a code on the side wall of the unit. No way I can scan it when it plugged in. Any help appreciated.Once you have defeated the idiots any job is half done. Pity there are so many idiots to defeat.

Hi John,
I`ve also got one of these scanners and at first had problems with the pairing to my android phone and found there was a second piece of software to download, all fine after that.
I think I found a youtube video showing how to pair it.
It`s worth sticking with it as not a bad bit of kit for the money.
Regards Dave.

Hi John,
You need to download the MaxiAP-AP200 app from the App Store, set up your username etc (if you haven’t already) then scan the QR code on the unit, that’s the unit serial number that links it to your account.
