I have a 2013 Boss 302. If you’ve ever watched those “Air Disaster” shows where all shit hits the fan in a cockpit… every light, bell, buzzer, whistle all at once. Well, my car did that a couple weeks ago. “Power Steering Gone, Brakes Gone, Traction Control Gone, Add Power Brake Fluid, ABS Gone, etc…. That’s why I’m watching OBD scanner videos… looking to see what I should buy. My right rear threw off the outer brake pad right when this happened…. Hopefully all of the other issues stemmed from that!! Thank you for the video.
Amature diy here. Loss of pad pet caliper compress further. Throwing all those lignts off. Coz it.made it all opporate out of.tollerance. Hopefully the caliper didnt get stuck. Update?
Really appreciate this video! Fun to watch, and really informative. I went with the Innova 5160Rs, and have mixed feelings about it as well. While the Repair Solutions software is cool, I have a long list of things I'd like it to be able to do (even as a reasonably-priced upgrade) like notes, service history, etc. that would make it much more helpful to me as a doofus in my Messy Garage, trying to keep the family fleet running. There's also a bug for me (at least on the Android tablet I've installed RS2 on) where I can't see the additional info for a 2nd/3rd code, so the first code is the only place I can see the (occasionally very-helpful) suggestions. Anyway, thanks for the great content!
@@thedoubtfultechnician8067 The RS2 software doesn't seem to have a limit (which is nice). I don't know if I've noticed what the handset unit has saved internally. Will check.
Question Will this reset the check engine light? After the repair? I did a service on my ram and forgot to plug in the map and air temp sensors it through the check engine light i plugged them back in but light wont reset some say it takes 20 restart cycles others say 100 miles ect i just want to reset ecm
The entire Zurich line has felt pretty outdated for a while. Made sense back when they only had to complete with X-tool, Autel, and random Ebay code readers, but the landscape is a whole lot more competitive these days. A Topdon Topscan has arguably more functionality for about 1/3rd the price. If you already need to link a phone for some of the functionality, why not have a more compact, fully wireless solution? Plus the lack of Electronic parking brake functionality is a deal-breaker for me. I wouldn't spend $150 without at least getting the ability to do my own rear brakes on a newer vehicle.
Nice and informative video! One question, is this able to read transmission oil temperatures? I couldn’t see on the live data screen. Just want to be 100% sure. Thank you
good day ,,, I have a ??? Does this work on a 2021 tundra sr5??? I've been trying it for a TPMS code, I change rims from summer custom wheels to winter OEM rims?????
I have a 1995 Land Cruiser…you mention just get the cheap code reader if it’s an older car..why is that? I have abs and srs codes I need help diagnosing but don’t want to spend the money on a code reader if it won’t help pinpoint the issue
Firstly, make sure your LC is obd2- 1995 is iffy since 1996 was when obd2 became mandatory. If you’re not obd2, this scanner is of no real value to you. Secondly, the abs and srs codes are likely accessible with out any scanners by jumping pins and counting flashes. Not a LC guy but I’m sure there’s tons of info out there on how!
It is obd2 so it must be a late 95 model. I guess my question was related what I thought you said about the older “Supra” and how the obd2 doesn’t have pro great on them? Or did I misunderstand? Thanks for getting back to me
@@MJ-ex8dl Ah. That’s because it doesn’t have enough modules to justify a fancy scanner. It has the ECM for engine/transmission codes (which a cheap scanner can handle no problem) and an SRS and ABS module which you can just read by jumping two pins and reading the flashes on your dashboard. You’d be wasting your money on a fancy scanner! Unless you have newer more complex cars as well.
Numerous people have pointed out that Autel may make the Zurich scanners, but I can’t confirm that. It’s a lower trim level LFA. They didn’t all come with V10s. I’m not rich, ya know.
@@MrAboutLife I bought the Zurich ZR13S and it does work to test the charging system of my Toyota 4Runner 2002. Does it work for all vehicles? Probably most.
Those lights aren’t for showing a possibly fault.its for emission.when its yellow it’s telling u it may not pass a emissions test when u go to get a inspection sticker
@@thedoubtfultechnician8067 O well nobody knows everything just ones I’ve used similar to that was like I was saying but looking at ur video again and watching u go through the app it shows on the app that the light being red means it’s not ready for a emission test and would fail like I was saying so where both correct it tells u what u was saying and also tells u what I was saying
Your level of knowledge of cars and how the ZR13S device operates are far ahead of me, I was lost throughout this video. I don't know what all the acronyms mean such as OBD2 and what "jumper some pins" means, for example. Maybe you could make another video aimed at novices such as myself, it would be appreciated. I got the app installed on my phone and enabled it's Bluetooth, but pairing was not working out for me. I'm discouraged.
This is a tool for mechanics. If you don’t know those terms, I think the cheapo dongle would be more than enough for your needs and probably less frustrating. No offense intended.
Great video in many respects. I bought one of this model thinking it could be handy as I set out to shop for used cars. Am I inferring correctly that with a tool like this (or even without...jumping pins) that someone can clear the error lights without having repaired the problem? And if so, scanning with the tool again will find that out for me?

I find it interesting and I’m trying to learn more about the “modern” vehicles and diagnostics.

99% of the time if it’s not low on pressure, it’s a communication fault between one of the 4-5 sensors and the module. This can tell you which sensor might be bad so you don’t have to pull all four tires and do trial by error!

Does the innova save more than three vehicles? The Zurich makes you re-enter the first one if you enter a fourth.

TH-cam can afford you an LFA , a Bentley and a 99' Supra, nice. I need a pro scanner like the Thinktool or Autel 9.
Innova makes those scanners
Explains the button and screen layout along with the beeps sounding just like the innova scanners.

Not on my vehicles- need the ZR15S for that. Check this out for more specific compatibility: www.harborfreight.com/zurich-diagnostics
Dam u did kobe dirty lmao but it was a good 1, jus bought this myself works well and for half the price of the zr15s
Mine also came in the box scratched, I think that is due to them not putting plastic over the screen
This guy is funny as shit. Great video man. Helpful also.
This was a good laugh . I subbed
It’s Kobe when it hits the ground… cobain when you make it cause he didn’t miss his last shot
😏
Can it reset battery status after replacing battery?
It's exactly like the Innova 5610 or 5410.
Blue Driver does all that for around $100
Fkn funnnnnny. You gone blow up 💥

Does it read engine maintenance Lights and say what it is
Does this tool do brake service mode?
Does it scan for ac faults
"is this your vehicle? unfortunately yes."
Another good one. In my case Autel for the win. I know more money but hasn't failed me yet. BTW Wife's LFA may be short a few cylinders.
Numerous people have pointed out that Autel may make the Zurich scanners, but I can’t confirm that.
It’s a lower trim level LFA. They didn’t all come with V10s. I’m not rich, ya know.
Any videos that show you how to reset air bag light on a toyota by jumping the pins ?
In my experience the only way to do that is to fix the actual fault. I don’t believe that system has memory, it self tests every time you turn it on.
Will this scanner do a crankshaft relearn?
I was looking at the ability to check the battery and alternator charging system. The one below this doesn't seem to have this capability.
Does this one in video have those options for alternator checking ?
