🔧 Why Choose the YOUCANIC Scanner Over $1000+ Competitors?

• ✅ Professional-Level Diagnostics — Access all available systems including engine, transmission, ABS, airbag, and more (up to 90+ ECUs on some vehicles). Compare: Autel MaxiSYS Elite & Snap-On Solus ($2,000+) offer similar access but cost 4x more.
• 💡 Beginner-Friendly, Mechanic-Approved — Easy-to-use Android touchscreen with guided menus. Perfect for DIYers, powerful enough for pros. Compare: Launch X431 and Snap-On scanners have steeper learning curves and less intuitive interfaces.
• 🔄 Free Lifetime Updates — Never pay for yearly subscriptions or brand unlocks. Updates are 100% free and the scanner continues working even if not updated. Compare: Autel requires $100–$400/year after the first year. Snap-On subscriptions are also recurring.
• 🚗 Gas, Diesel, Hybrid & EV Coverage — Supports nearly all vehicle types, including trucks up to 3500 series (e.g., RAM 3500, F-350). Compare: Many mid-range scanners from Innova or Launch lack full EV or diesel support.
• 🔧 40+ Service Reset Functions — Oil reset, battery registration, DPF regen, EPB, ABS bleed, injector coding & more. Compare: Most $500–$800 scanners only support 10–15 reset services. YouCANIC leads with the most functions in its class.
• 📊 4-in-1 Live Data Graphing — Track multiple sensor values side-by-side, record & export reports. Compare: Snap-On scanners offer this but at significantly higher cost. Most consumer-grade tools only graph 1-2 values.
• 🎮 Bi-Directional / Active Testing — Activate components (fans, windows, EGR valves, fuel pumps, etc.) just like a dealer tool. Compare: This feature is often missing in scanners under $1,000. Autel & Launch charge premium for this.
• 🌐 Supports 130+ Brands — Full global support across U.S., European, and Asian makes. No hidden unlock fees. Compare: Launch & Autel lock brand access behind subscription tiers.
• 📞 Free U.S.-Based Tech Support & Remote Help — Talk to real ASE-certified mechanics or let us remotely assist you. Call us at (888) 959-4265. Compare: Most brands offer slow or outsourced support. Remote diagnosis is rarely included.
• 🚫 Works Offline — Internet is only required for updates. Diagnosis, resets, and scans all work fully offline. Compare: Some Autel and Launch tools require online logins to function fully.
• 📦 All-In-One Coverage, No Hidden Costs — No add-ons, brand fees, or upgrade packages. Full access out of the box for ~$500. Compare: Snap-On, Autel MaxiSYS, and Launch PRO models easily exceed $1,200+ with optional upgrades.

Summary: YOUCANIC gives you the functionality of a $2,000+ diagnostic tool at a fraction of the cost, with no subscriptions, no hidden fees, and lifetime updates included. Whether you're a home mechanic or a shop owner, YOUCANIC is the best value in full-system diagnostics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the scanner need internet to work?

No, scanner will work without internet. Internet is only needed for updates and emailing reports.

Does it work with cars outside of USA?

Yes, it has worldwide vehicle model coverage for cars 1996 and newer. Wroks also on some OBD-I vehicles with adapters.

Where is the product made?

We design the product in Baltimore, MD and manufacture it in China to maintain quality while keeping costs affordable.

Where is support located?

Our support team is based in Baltimore, MD and available Monday-Friday, 9AM-4PM EST.

Do you ship worldwide?

Yes! Add the product to cart and enter your address to see international shipping rates.

Will I have to pay duty taxes?

Depends on your country's rules. We don't collect duty or VAT tax - these may be charged upon delivery according to local regulations.

Are updates free?

Yes, updates are free for the lifetime of the product. We regularly add new car models and features.

How do I update the scanner?

Simply connect to WiFi and click the update button - it's that easy!

What if I have trouble connecting to my car?

With your permission, we can remotely access the device and help resolve any connection issues.

Can this device code/program modules?

While the scanner can perform some coding tasks like battery registration, injector coding, and TPMS sensors, it's not designed as a primary coding tool. It may not support control module coding or VIN-to-module coding.

Can I print diagnostic reports?

Yes, you can print directly to any WiFi printer and email reports to any email address.

Can I record live data?

Yes, you can record live data while driving and play it back later for analysis.

Why can't I buy this scanner on Amazon?

We choose to sell directly to our customers to provide better service, support, and value. By cutting out middleman fees, we can offer free lifetime updates, US-based technical support, and remote diagnostic assistance - services we couldn't provide through Amazon. This direct relationship also ensures you receive a genuine YOUCANIC scanner with full warranty coverage and access to our expert support team in Baltimore. While it might be more convenient to buy on Amazon, we believe giving you direct access to our team and full product support is worth much more than one-click shopping.

Adapter for 1996-2002 Mercedes-Benz vehicles with 38-pin port under the hood. Available only with the purchase of a YOUCANIC UCAN-II full-system scanner.

Please contact us to verify that our scanner has the software to cover your model if your Mercedes-Benz is made before 2002. 

This adapter is only available for customers who have purchased the YOUCANIC full-system scanner. 

Supported models: https://www.youcanic.com/mercedes-benz-models-with-38-pin-port/

The 12+8 Adapter is used to bypass FCA Vehicles Security Gateway Module (SGM) which limits an aftermarket scan tool to only reading DTCs and viewing data. 

Most 2018 and newer FCA vehicles include a Security Gateway Module.

If you don't use AutoAuth you can expect to see this message when scanning a Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Fiat, or Alfa vehicle with the Security Gateway Module:

DEVICE UNABLE TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE CONTROL UNIT

Placement of the SGM varies, but it is often located in the sidekick panel, passenger side near the glove box, or behind the radio. 

The 12+8 Adapter connects to the Autel MaxiSys VCI.

Adapter needed on:
20% of 2017 Chrysler products
50% of 2018 Chrysler products
90% of 2019 Chrysler products 
100% by 2020  

Only for customers who have purchased YOUCANIC full system scanner. If you purchase this adapter without the scanner, your order will be canceled. If you have purchased the scanner previously, use the same email address so that we can verify the purchase.
