6. Start Diagnostics

This tool supports three kinds of diagnosis approaches: Smart Diagnosis, Manual Diagnosis
and Tech to Tech Remote Diagnosis.
Smart Diagnosis(AutoDetect):
Through simple wireless communication between the tablet and VCI, the system will guide
you directly to the fix and help you eliminate guesswork, without step-by-step manual menu
selection.

Manual Diagnosis:

You need to manually select the menu-driven command.

Tech to Tech:

This helps repair shops or mechanics to diagnose a remote vehicle, and launch instant
messages, allowing for improved efficiency and faster repairs.
For new users, the Manual Diagnosis is recommended as follows:.
