AD600S

Excellent Entry-Level Diagnostic ToolThis scanner offers comprehensive functionality for novice users while still covering a wide range of diagnostic needs. It reads various OBD-II codes quickly and accurately, including generic, manufacturer-specific, and pending codes. The interface is user-friendly, making navigation and code interpretation straightforward. Additionally, it includes useful service reset functions (such as oil reset, battery registration, and others depending on the vehicle), which adds significant value for basic maintenance and troubleshooting.

The ArtiDiag TOPDON 600 S worked right out of the box. Using it is amazingly simple. I was anticipating a learning curve, but everything is icon driven. The touch screen works effortlessly. I am able to retrieve O2 sensor data live as well as transmission temperature. It goes without saying that reading pending codes is a breeze. So far, battery life is not an issue, but the unit charges quickly anyway.I am not worried about the unit being breaking because the build quality is there. The case is quite robust. The functional specification for this unit was obviously created by a mechanic. The designers and programmers took the ball from the functional specification

Great scanner for a great price. Have used it on several different vehicles and have been pleased with all the different functions. Pretty easy to use too.

Artidaig600 reviewI had the chance to use this for a few weeks, I have been a technician for 30-plus years, and I have been around many different scanners.Nice little unit, that fits the hands nicely, the controls are easy to navigate, screen is decently sized, responsive, and readable under most conditions. Free lifetime updates are a bonus even to the casual user. Auto VIN feature works nicely, on occasion it scans more than just the PCM/SRS/ABS/TRANS . I have seen wireless controls (Chrysler) TPMS, and central gateway scans among some other systems. The graphing feature along with stacking graphs together is a bonus. Newer FCA (Chrysler/Jeep etc.) need the 12+8 cable to bypass the secure gateway, it will read data but will not write data to the vehicle. You will not be able to clear codes without it.The Android interface is pretty direct forward, not the usual issues I have with other Android units. It doesn't lag like some others, the 32GB storage is more than enough, and some updates like VW can be over a GB.. Do update it on WIFI, not your phone... Updates seem to be frequent and installed easily. WIFI works nicely. Screenshots, screen record and the data replay work well easy to navigate and find. If you plan on typing on the screen for notes or feedback, use a stylus. Updates seem frequent and install without issue.The Library, TSB's are not easy to navigate, but for a reason. It's divided up into many subfolders to keep the number down and get lost in a sea of them. I just recommend looking these up online. The warning light library is basic at best. The DTC repair guide is VERY generic, a new user can get in trouble fast, replacing parts and not doing a proper diagnostic. The I/M part is great for repair verification and seeing if the monitor(s) have completed for State vehicle inspections. The battery voltage graph is a nice feature, even though it displays voltage on the screen while scanning. Reports are nice, I just wish I could print them more easily. Maintenance resets work for the most part where I expected them to. Some vehicles need a higher-end scanner for SOME resets. Generic OBDII/EOBD works great, I always recommend a scan with it also. Generic also holds some invaluable data for diagnostics.Solid unit for a mid-range scanner, and worked on almost everything I threw at it. 5/5 Stars...

Works but then you opted for the 600 vs the 900 and regret it later: just get the 900 bu directional is pretty much needed to do troubleshoot any newer car. Wish I could send this one back and buy the 900

This product so far has been extremely handy and well built, the build quality seems durable and the ability to send reports to customers is a feature I never thought I would use so much. For the price I got it $167, it Is well worth the purchase

Not good - difficult set up - unable to auto scan vin - manual vin entry and unable to connect for scans - basically useless for older range vehicles

seems to be a great scan tool but wouldnt reset by SAS sensor which is what i bought it for.. it said my sensor was out of adjustment, but wouldnt reset it... it was very easy to use and scanned the vin and all and recognized the vehicle and had a lot of info available about the car... but ultimately didnt do what i needed so i returned it... not sure if it was the tools fault or the senor, i never fixed it i just bought i new car instead... i just wanted to trade it in without any dash lights on but that didnt happen.. lol
