The ANCEL OBD2 App ensures you’re always equipped with the latest information through lifetime free updates, keeping your diagnostic capabilities current and comprehensive.
- Comprehensive OBD2 Functionality: The app seamlessly integrates with the BD200 scanner to deliver all 10 OBD2 test modes. This means you can perform a wide range of diagnostic tasks, from basic code reading and clearing to advanced system tests, all through your smartphone.
Harnessing the Power of 10 OBDII Test Modes with the ANCEL OBD2 App
The ANCEL BD200, in conjunction with the ANCEL OBD2 App, provides access to all 10 OBDII test modes, offering a complete diagnostic solution. These modes are crucial for understanding your vehicle’s emissions system and overall health:
- Read and Clear Codes: Quickly diagnose issues by reading diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) within seconds and clear them after repairs, effectively turning off the check engine light.
- EVAP System Test: Pinpoint evaporative emission system leaks with this test, preventing harmful fuel vapors from escaping and contributing to environmental pollution.
- Freeze Frame Data: Capture crucial vehicle data at the moment a fault code is triggered. This snapshot of parameters like engine speed, coolant temperature, and fuel trim helps in diagnosing intermittent issues.
- I/M Readiness Test: Determine if your vehicle’s emission systems are ready for smog testing. This feature saves you time and potential failure by ensuring your car is compliant before an official inspection.
- On-Board Monitor Test: Access the results of on-board diagnostic monitoring for emission-related components and systems. This allows you to proactively identify potential problems before they escalate.
- O2 Sensor Test: Monitor the performance of your oxygen sensors, which are vital for fuel efficiency and emissions control. The app displays test results directly from your vehicle’s computer.
- Vehicle Information Retrieval: Easily access essential vehicle information such as VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), CID (Calibration ID), and CVN (Calibration Verification Number) directly through the app.
- Live Data Stream: Observe real-time data streams of various vehicle parameters, including engine coolant temperature, RPM, sensor readings, and fuel system status. This dynamic data visualization is invaluable for understanding your car’s operational behavior.
- DTC Lookup: The ANCEL OBD2 App features an integrated and up-to-date DTC library. Simply input a fault code, and the app instantly provides definitions and possible causes, empowering you to understand the problem and potential solutions.
Beyond Basic Diagnostics: Special Features of the ANCEL OBD2 App
The ANCEL OBD2 App extends beyond standard OBD2 functions, offering unique features that enhance vehicle performance monitoring and driving safety:
- Customizable Dashboard: Tailor the app’s dashboard to display the live data parameters most relevant to you. Monitor RPM, speed, engine temperature, and more in a clear and configurable interface.
- Performance Testing: Evaluate your vehicle’s performance with acceleration, braking, and sprint tests. The app records test duration, speed and RPM changes, and generates detailed reports with PID charts for in-depth analysis.
- Trip Management: Gain comprehensive insights into every journey with detailed trip analysis. The app records coolant temperature, speed variations, RPM, distance, and driving time, providing valuable data on your driving habits and vehicle performance over time.
- Battery Voltage Monitoring: Proactively manage your car battery’s health with voltage checks. The app displays voltage fluctuations during starting and provides readings when the engine is off, helping you identify potential battery issues before they lead to breakdowns.
- Safe Driving Alarms: Enhance driving safety by setting customizable voice alarms for speed, water temperature, and driving time. The ANCEL OBD2 App provides real-time alerts, promoting safer and more responsible driving habits.
