iCarsoft Mercedes Real Diagnostic Demo

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Hi All,
Further to the popularity of my other iCarsoft videos, I decided to show an 'un-scripted' demonstration of iCarsoft on my Mercedes SL R230 year 2004.
I discover on the day that I had some faults which a few I manged to clear and show how this is done.
When using iCarsoft ensure that the ignition is on or engine on.
The version of iCarsoft used in the video is:
Multicar iCarsoft version: amzn.to/3r1ZxAk
Mercedes only iCarsoft version: amzn.to/3Scjn7N
iCarsoft CR Max pro version: amzn.to/3fcDg02
My other video on updating iCarsoft V2 to add other makes (up to 10):
• iCarsoft V2 Car Diagno...
iCarsoft OBD II Diagnostic Tool EU Pro model 20+cars: amzn.to/3GufJD0

I'm asking because I had an MBV1.0 and it only showed me the current version. I have now received 2 versions for testing: CRV2.0 EU and CRV2.0 1+4. Thank you for your help.

    Hello, can you help me troubleshoot my 1997 sl320. It won't change gears and a KZread video said it'd in the limp mode and the only way to fix it is to clear the code and other diagnostic scanners won't clear the codes so I purchased the icarsoft MB II V2.0 and the 38 pin red adapter now I don't know how to clear the code to make my car start changing gears again. Can you help walk me through using the scanner to clear the codes

  • @GrooveOn

    @GrooveOn

    Жыл бұрын

    Hi there, If your car has gone into limp mode it usually signifies a physical fault and clearing the code may just mean it will come back again. With that said make sure your 38pin adaptor is pushed all the way home, I had one that used to stop short. Once your icarsoft successfuly connects. Go into diagnostic and Search for your car and model. Now search the items for transmission, there may be more than one, read codes, then clear codes . Now go back into reading code and see if it goes. Good luck

    Hi just a quick question. I have an Icarsoft Pro and it will recognise the vehicle (SLK R170 year 2000) but only after manually inputting the VIN but all other functions are not available. I have been using a generic OBD 38 pin adapter. Will the original one with the chip make any difference or do I need a specific MB scanner for it to work? Obviously having already paid over £250 for the scanner I am trying to find out if I need another scanner or could just get the Icarsoft adapter? Many thanks in advance.

    I recommend the iCarsoft adapter, as a modulator is installed. From what I have read, the standard 38 PIN adapters cannot be used for this. Then it also depends on which version you have installed. I was faced with exactly the same problem. Unfortunately, it turned out that the current versions of iCarsoft were not compatible with my 1998 SLK. I therefore received two test devices from iCarsoft with older versions. And behold, it worked. I hope I was able to help

    Hi there, are you taking about the convenience message on dash you get from low battery power? do you have an SL Mercedes?. If so then good news is you don't need the icarsoft for erasing, the reason you get the message is with low battery from the large rear battery. Message usually goes after about 10 mins or so? I would really recommend a genuine Mercedes battery, they are not that dear, since I have bought one, I've never had the day message again!

Batteries are really important, and despite what others think, they do differ between brands even if they are the same Cold cranking amps and capacity etc. I bought a Halfords (UK Store) like for like replacement battery. After a couple of weeks I kept getting the Convenience error. From working in Battery engineering within the train sector, I decided to approach Mercedes and obtained their battery which was only about £40 more. That was 4 years ago, I have another car that I use, so the SL can sit for over a month, even in the middle of winter, I never get any issues starting or see the convenience warning.

In the description of the higher end unit, it states cars from 2001, so it wont work on my 1999 SLK So be carefull saying you can buy the more expensive unit, it might not work on your specifieke car. Also units do not get a life long updates, like your Smartphone the have a expiry date, no more upates, this I was told by a Rep of iCarsoft Also be careful playing around with scanners in your Mercedes, guy here on KZread put his Mercedes into Limp Mode and cannot get it out.
