The 1996-2000 GMT400 CK and the same vintage ST chassis ABS along with some GM AMG 6.5 diesel PCM functions present a challenge for many aftermarket diagnostic tools. Snap-On lacked reliable GM ABS bleed function on these til @2010ish software bundles. I own a Tech2 but a tablet tool with sensor graphing in the arsenal would be darn nice. I'd be interested to see how the Icon lineup does with these 1990's GM trucks & SUVs.
Is everything your showing us only with a subscription? What if I don’t renew the subscription what will I be able to do with the scanner. What about throttle relearn?
Thanks for the review! Im a master tech at a Carvana inspection facility. Im going to purchase a T7 with my tool bonus coming at the end of the year. The shop had company owned autel scanners that will do everything under the sun but they are bulky. I enjoy something like the T7 because its lighter and i can walk around the facility with it diagnosing cars on the fly 😂
Can the T7 calibrate/align the 360 surround cameras on Kias? I've got a '22 Kia Stinger GT2 and had to replace the front camera (a stone got kicked up and hit the camera - hey at least it didn't take out the windshield with the HUD projection layer) and need to align the views to make it seamless again. It's around $500 for the dealer to do it, so I may as well buy a T7 (or spend a little more for the T8) and have a tool for future maintenance and mods.
Key programming is such a niche thing right now. It depends on make and model. I would contact Icon at icondiagnostics@harborfreight.com for specifics. Thanks for watching and subscribing! 👊👍
Hey awesome video. Been looking for a scan tool that can do abs stuff , bidirectional controls. Most stuff i play with is 90s and early 2000s gm cars and trucks. Would this work with them the same way a tech 2 could?
Hey thanks for watching! Honestly, I'm not sure if that vintage of GM cars would have bi-directional control... We normally think of it backwards in the sense of the scan tool will only interact with the car in the way you wanted to (Example if the OEM manufacturer added that technology and software into the car at the factory). We get that question a lot with people wanting to know if the scan tool will read the temperature of the transmission, and the scan tool will only provide that information if the transmission has a temperature sensor installed from the factory. I'd say read up on the year make and model cars you're looking to use the scan tool on to confirm if they have CAN support and then buy the corresponding scan tool 👍👍
@FreshVintageGarage hey thanks a lot friend. Yes the topic of scan tool vs scam tool comes up a lot. Obviously the pcm can see everything, and things like hp tuner can log most of it. Scan tools to me are complicated, and as a hobbyist , I can not justify spending many thousands on a snap-on tool . Cars are my hobby and that's it. Rooting around in a pcm is just a game 😂
Looks like HF is keeping this one under wraps. Thanks for being the pioneer! Awesome detailed video! I think I will run to HF and buy one now! Been waiting for awhile to get one!
Thanks for watching - the ICON T7 does not have wiring schematics as standard scan tool data inside of it; for this you would need to check out our ICON TrueFix software.
This is plug and play ready for you right out of the box 😊 We would recommend you unbox it, charge it, register it and then update all firmware and software before using it though.
Deserved a like!! And sub! Don’t know if this scanner and rest an electric power steering red light warning reset on a 2014 Toyota Camry. A ground wire was no connected back on responsible for the electric power steering and when the car was turned back on we lost power steering so just wondering if this scanner can fix it
Do you mean change the upper limits of what the TPMS sensors are programmed for? If so then no, the ICON series scan tools only have manual instructions for TPMS sensors relearn/resets in them, with no ability to diagnose or reprogram anything in the TPMS system 👍
Did it come with an activation key? Just bought one and I can’t setup my profile.like where you put your email & all that other information. There was no code in the box to activate.
Hello yes all of our scan tools came with a paper in the box that you had to open (like a paper check) and inside there was a serial number and I believe an activation code. If you did not have this then reach out to icondiagnostics@harborfreight.com and they can help walk you through the process to get your ICON scan tool up and running fast!
I haven't seen barely any coverage of the T7 even though it was dropped not long after the T10. You're like the only ones I've seen and it's been weeks. It looks interesting, and the price is definitely much more palatable, but as much as I would want it I dont think I'd be satisfied with it long-term; I feel you can get more capable tablets for the same amount of money. However, I have heard people say the software of the Icon tablets is a bit more "polished" than some others such as Autel or Launch, but I cant verify that personally since I'm still trying to decide what to go with.
Thanks for watching! It is a little odd that HF is not shouting this one from the roof tops like they did with the T10 and T8 scan tools, but it will serve you well!
Hello what subscription are you referring to? The standard software the ICON T7 comes with is: Includes 1 year of free updates with subscription updates available after the first year.
Hello the ICON team confirmed the TrueFix software has all of these for the Transit 350 diesel and the 3500 diesels. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
It is pretty annoying that everything runs thru a computer like the horn that mean it is not directly connected obviously aside from fuese and relays but you can have some other stupid failure that wouldn't be a problem otherwise but now you have to spend hundreds likely thousands because of that
@@FreshVintageGarage For me, I am looking for the using of the machine more. I am not a mechanic, but I drive my vehicles for the life of the vehicle, and I do as much of my own work as I can. The speaker has a pleasant presentation manner. Maybe, one of your other videos would have been a better match for me. I apologize if I was too harsh in my statement. I did not mean to come across too strong. Thank you for what you do.
I’ve been patiently waiting for a video on the T7. Thank you for this detailed and concise video! I will be ordering mine soon!

Will this unit do manual regens on diesel pickups or program injectors?
I’m trying to figure out the same thing so if you get answers please let me know
It will do both.
Thanks for watching and subscribing! 👍👊
Per Team ICON yes these will.
Were you able to find any functional testing for the electronic parking brake systems?
The vehicle we initially checked had a manual parking brake. If the vehicle has an EPB it will work with it.
Thanks for watching and subscribing! 👍👊
Can it check injector balance rates
I’m guessing it will also reset the immobilizer? Great video!

Will this reprogram an ignition key? Great video, thanks for the indepth video!
I’m looking for the same thing
Did anyone find out also looking for same
Same question. This could also be a vehicle specific function that the tool may be capable of for some vehicles but not others.
Key programming is such a niche thing right now. It depends on make and model. I would contact Icon at icondiagnostics@harborfreight.com for specifics.
Thanks for watching and subscribing! 👊👍
Per Team ICON: Limited in key programming.
Will this do a throttle relearn on a 2012 Silverado

Can i see evap temp sensor with the T7. I’m working on a 2015 f350
Yes you should be able to, pending the F350 has a temp sensor built into the evap system (these scan tools only show what is built into the vehicle).
Looks like HF is keeping this one under wraps. Thanks for being the pioneer! Awesome detailed video! I think I will run to HF and buy one now! Been waiting for awhile to get one!
Thanks for watching! Yeah it's kinda odd that HF is not shouting this one from the roof tops like they did with the T10 and T8 scan tools...
I JUST got a notification from my app today and that’s what led to me watching the video. This thing is awesome
I am interested in wiring schematics. Can the T7 provide these? Thanks.
Thanks for watching - the ICON T7 does not have wiring schematics as standard scan tool data inside of it; for this you would need to check out our ICON TrueFix software.
Will it do an injector cut out/kill test on diesel pick ups?
Hello this will do injector testing.
Hello, will this do my 2018 Chevy Equinox electronic parking brake retract n Extend? Thank you great video
when purchasing it at the store,for $445 is there any more fees. or can I plug it in off we go ?
This is plug and play ready for you right out of the box 😊 We would recommend you unbox it, charge it, register it and then update all firmware and software before using it though.
Thanks for watching - we received this back from Team ICON: Parking brake calibration is required after a service and is supported.
Will this work on Toyota cars/trucks that use techstream?
It will.

Per Team ICON: There is a torque sensor zero point calibration that the ICON Scan tool can perform after servicing the power steering system.
Can you change tpms pressure thresholds with the T7?
Do you mean change the upper limits of what the TPMS sensors are programmed for?
If so then no, the ICON series scan tools only have manual instructions for TPMS sensors relearn/resets in them, with no ability to diagnose or reprogram anything in the TPMS system 👍
can this get transfer case trouble codes?
If your OEM manufacturer built that functionality into your specific year, make and model the ICON series should be able to access it yes 👍
Will this new brake maintenance
Yes it will 👍🏼
It will.

When’s the T1 dropping
Coming out 2030 😅
Actually I have no idea if HF releases a smaller ICON code reader or mini scan tool
Do you need to purchase a subscription??
