After a connection to
vehicle, the Xtruck USB link has been set up. The Bluetooth software
provides a virtual serial COM port (Bluetooth Serial Port Profile). The
Diagnostic Base System uses this COM port to communicate with the Xtruck
USB link. After built connection with Bluetooth, the system will ask
for a PIN “NEXIQ” (with all letters capitalized) to confirm Bluetooth
communication. You need to specify this port when you install the
diagnostic application.
Access via USB:
You can also connect the Xtruck USB link
to the application PC by using the supplied USB cable. Windows detects
the Xtruck USB link through Plug and Play, and automatically installs
the drivers copied when you installed the diagnostic application. Setup
of the Xtruck USB link is then complete and the device is ready for use

How to Use Engine Diagnostic Machines
In 1996, by order of the Environmental Protection Carprog
Agency, engine diagnostics became standardized for vehicles sold in the
United States. As a result, diagnostic coding is the same in a Ford as
it is in a Chevrolet or a Chrysler. The process of accessing a vehicle's
second generation on-board diagnostic system is the same, as well. A
handheld computer is needed. The functionality this type of device
covers a broad spectrum. Cheaper, simpler diagnostic machines are simple
OBD-II code readers, while the more sophisticated scanner can do much
more.
1. Insert your diagnostic machine into the your vehicle's data link connector. For most vehicles, this 16 pin-receiving outlet can be found in the leg space on the driver's side of the vehicle. It will either be under the steering column or to the left or right of the steering column.
2. Switch the diagnostic machine on. Some of the higher end scanners have a self-activating feature, whereas some of the more simpler code readers may need to have the power button pushed.
3. Turn your vehicle's electrical system on. Doing this depends on the brand and type of OBD-II scanner. Some will need to have the engine running.
4. Issue a retrieval command. How to do this also depends on the specific device you own. Button locations do vary and some scanners use a manu system. Also, some scanners are preset to automatically pull codes from a vehicle's computer, once a data stream is sensed. For the exact instructions on how to do this, consult the manual of the device you own.
5. Look at the codes on the device's screen. Often, they will be differentiated by their status in the vehicle's computer. Some codes will be labeled as "faults" or "trouble." This means the codes have happened quite frequently, and the system has activated you vehicles service engine soon light. Other codes will be labeled as "pending." These are still recorded malfunction, but they have occurred a little less frequently than fault or trouble codes. Pending codes do not active a vehicle's service engine soon light.
6. Look at the first character in the OBD scanner on the screen. This letter will tell you where to look for the problems. "P" stands for "powertrain," and the codes correspond with problems in the engine. "C" stands for "Chassis" and the codes correspond with issues in the electrical system. "B" stands for "Body" and correspond with mechanical issues not associated with the engine. "U" stands for network communication
7. Look on your device for something akin to "live data." Simpler code readers may not have this function. You can shift out of code reading mode and obtain readings from your vehicle's many sensors. This way, you can find outoil pressure and engine revolutions per minute. If your scanner has this feature, it quickens the troubleshooting process. Many of the OBD-II codes correspond with specific engine sensors. If you have only a simpler code reader, you will have to check these sensors independently, usually with a continuity tester and a volt meter. Maxidas ds708

Restart a Car That Has Run Out of Gas
If you're the type to let your car perennially run on or near empty, you will likely run completely out of gas at some point. In many cases, the long walk to the gas station is the hardest part of this embarrassing situation, but sometimes you could also have a difficult time restarting the car even after you put more gas in the tank.obd2 scanner
1. Replenish the tank with a minimum of two gallons of gas to get you to the next gas station. Place the gas cap back on before you attempt to restart the car.
2. Pump the gas pedal a few times to help get the new gas moving through the system.
3. Turn the key to the "on" position to prime the fuel injectors if your vehicle has a fuel injection system (skip this step if it does not). Wait a few minutes.
4. Turn the key all the way to restart the car. You may have to hold the key in place for a few seconds before the car turns over.
5. Wait a few minutes and then repeat the process if the car does not restart after the first attempt. If after five attempts the car does not restart, allow the car to sit for at least an hour before trying again.
6. Tow the car to a trusted repair shop if after an hour it still does not restart.

How to diagnostic Airbag Codes for a BMW X5
For automakers, safety is a priority, and according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, airbags significantly increase automobile safety. Every new car, including the BMW X5, comes with airbags. If your airbag warning light comes on, or you think there is something wrong, you can check them by plugging in an airbag scanner tool. The tool will give you a numeric code that corresponds to a specific airbag or seatbelt malfunction in your car.
Fault Code 2
Both airbags and seatbelts are considered part of your BMW X5's Supplemental Restraint System, so some of the codes your scanner tool prints out may deal exclusively with seatbelt problems. Others, like fault code 2, relate to the airbags. If the scanner gives you fault code 2, it means that the driver's side airbag ignition circuit is defective. This code will sometimes be tripped when other parts, such as the steering wheel, are repaired, so a qualified person will need to check the circuit wires to verify the problem.
Fault Code 5
If this code comes up, it means that the airbag ignition circuit on the passenger side is defective. As with fault code 2, your BMW X5's circuit connections and wires will need to be checked. This should always be done by a professional or an experienced person to avoid injuries or damage to the vehicle.
Fault Code 19
Sometimes your warning light will not go off, or it fails to come on when you are sure there is a problem. If you check your SRS system and see fault code 19, it means that you may have a faulty warning lamp. Check your light by turning your BMW X5 key to ignition-lock position 1. If the lamp lights and goes out after a few seconds, it is not faulty. If the lamp stays lit, you may need to code your airbag control unit.
Fault Code 73
Getting this fault code when scanning your BMW X5 means that your airbag squib wires may have short-circuited. The circuit wires to specific numbered pins -- 1, 2, 3, 4, 10, 11, 13 and 14 -- should be checked for short circuits among themselves. As always, mechanical work involving electrical circuits should be done only by an experienced person or qualified professional.

Ways to Increase Fuel Mileage on a 4.3L Vortec
The Chevrolet 4.3 V-6 engine used in a number of trucks and vans throughout the 1980s and 1990s. Among the larger V-6 engines produced, the fuel economy often suffered in exchange for impressive torque and horsepower. Making these engines more efficient is simply a matter of adding a few bolt-on accessories, though it is unrealistic to expect the fuel economy of four-cylinder engines or hybrids.
Air Intake Upgrade digimaster 3
The first and most obvious way to improve the fuel economy of your 4.3 V-6 engine is by improving the quality of the air that the engine consumes. This can be done by adding one of two products, both widely available at any local auto parts store. The first is a simple high-flow air filter, which installs in place of the stock paper filter; the second is the replacement of the entire intake track with a cold-air induction kit. Both improve fuel economy, though the cold-air induction kit does so significantly more than the basic high-flow air filter, as is reflected in the price disparity between the two parts. Expect to pay upward of $300 for a cold air induction kit, and less than $50 for a high-flow air filter (as of 2011).
Exhaust Upgrade
The installation of a catalytic converter-back exhaust system works best when installed in tandem with a cold air induction kit. By limiting the restriction of air within the engine, the engine is made more efficient. As a by-product, you will also notice a significant improvement in the throttle response and power of the truck or van. Under normal driving conditions, the additional 20 or so horsepower gained with the modification will translate into at least 1 to 2 additional mpg in fuel economy.
Throttle Body Spacers Creator C110
Throttle body spacers, when used by themselves, have a negligible effect on the power and fuel economy of the 4.3L engine. However, when used in conjunction with modifications, can significantly improve fuel economy. They do this by increasing the volume of air taken into the intake manifold, as well as spinning the air to help further atomize the fuel-air mixture. The throttle body spacer by itself may only add 1/4 to 1/2 mpg in fuel economy, but used with the exhaust and air intake upgrade, can improve fuel economy by as much as 1 to 2 mpg, in addition to gains realized by the intake and exhaust upgrade.
Computer Programmers
Engine management computers are designed to work with a broad range of variables. Taken into account is the lowest possible octane rating of fuel available nationwide, which is generally 87 octane, as well as a broad spectrum of air densities to account for the different elevations in which the vehicle is likely to be operated. Using a computer programmer allows you to fine-tune the engine of the vehicle to the exact specifications of the area in which the truck or van is usually driven, as well as your preferred octane fuel. Using a computer programmer can increase fuel efficiency by 2 to 4 mpg, depending on driving conditions and your driving habits.

How to diagnose the BMW Head Gasket?
Despite the fact that BMWs Creator C110 are among the best engineered cars in the world and the company is a leader in many aspects of the automotive industry, many of the cars it produces can suffer from head gasket problems. This is caused by a few factors, namely the fact that BMWs often appear to have water pumps, thermostats and radiators that don't last long. There are some things that can be done to prevent a warped head gasket as well as signs to look for if you think you have a problem with the head gasket.
Causes
A failed head gasket is generally cause by an overheating engine that, in turn, causes the head to warp. If the head warps, the head gasket cannot properly seal the head to the block, allowing coolant to mix with the oil inside the motor. An engine will overheat for a variety of reasons. If the water pump fails on a BMW, it will stop circulating coolant from the radiator into the motor, causing potential overheating if the problem is not caught in time. If the thermostat fails, then the fan will not turn on and cause overheating. The least likely possibility is a failed radiator core, though this does happen as well.
Identification obd2 scanner
There are several signs that a BMW has a blown head gasket, such as if the temperature gauge shows the car is routinely running hot. If the low coolant light comes on, even after topping up the coolant, it's leaking somewhere. Another way to tell is by opening up the engine's oil cap and inspecting the oil. If the head gasket is blown, the oil will mix with the coolant and the oil will have a brown, milky appearance. If white smoke comes out of the tailpipe even after the car is warmed, there is a good chance there is a problem.
Prevention/Solution
There are several things you can to help ensure your BMW motor does not suffer from a blown head gasket. It is recommended you change the water pump every 60,000 miles or so and replace the thermostat if there is any sign of the motor running hot. Though radiators are expensive, it's a good idea to replace them every 100,000 miles or so. It is also possible to upgrade to an aluminum radiator on most cars as well as a better engineered aftermarket water pump. It's also a good idea to periodically have the coolant flushed and replaced.
What Happens if the Head Gasket Is bad?
If the head gasket blows on a BMW, fixing it is labor intensive. The head gasket itself is usually a $200 part, but removing the head takes many hours. Most shops charge around $1500 to properly fix a head gasket.

Three weeks ago, I bought Tuirel S777 from OBDexpress.co.uk. And I got my package last week, it packed well. I used it to test many cars and now I want to share my experience with you.
Tuirel S777 can diagnose Audi, Benz, Nissan and so on. Even the old vehicles before 1996 can be also diagnosed by connecting the OBD1 to OBD2 connector (non-16pin cable to 16pin cable). I tried to test 2014year car models, so I downloaded the car software from the office website: http://www.tuireup.com/. I found that it can program keys for Nissan but it can't work for diesel vehicles. For the 12V car and 12V pickup truck, it's OK. I can update on official website, and it's available with much world-wide languages, so it is another tool for world-wide users.

How to Troubleshoot a Car Stereo That Will Not Power
The most likely cause of a stereo MIRACLE-A7 not powering up is a blown fuse. Other causes can be a short in the wiring or other wiring problems. Cars are unforgiving environments for electronics, and vibration, heat and dust can all cause premature failure. Vibration can cause wiring to become loose. Tight working-space confines can create difficulty making connections in the first place.
Turn the ignition key to the accessory setting and press the "Power" button a few times to verify the condition.
Check that the stereo circuit fuse hasn't blown. The fuse is in the centralized fuse block location with all the other fuses. There are usually spare fuses in the box, so you can replace the fuse with the same rated fuse. The size and color should match the existing fuse.
Remove the car stereo from its internationally standardized slot in the car's dashboard known as a DIN -- Deutsches Institut für Normung -- slot. You will likely need a set of car stereo removal tools to slip into the notches on each side of the panel and release the head from the mounting bracket. Take a look at the back of the head and you should see some groups of wires connected to wiring harnesses. The wiring harness can be split into two or three areas—speakers, power and accessories, such as subwoofers. Take a close look and make sure no wires are loose entering the harness. Make sure the harnesses are plugged into the car stereo.
Trace back wiring Honda GNA600 from the car stereo's control head power harness to the fuse block and verify that the wiring is all intact. If you encounter a fuse along the red wire, replace it. The black wire may well go straight to the car body—it's the ground. Check that the connection is good and not rusted out. Remove the wire and use sandpaper to clean the connection. Replace the wire.

How to Inform If a Starter Relay Is Undesirable within a Ford
A obd2 scanner terrible starter relay on your Ford motor vehicle will reduce the necessary electrical energy from reaching the starter motor; fail to minimize off power; or hold the motor from starting in any way. Fortunately, all Ford versions possess a remote relay close to the battery, which makes it simple and hassle-free for troubleshooting. This manual will help you establish whether the starter relay in your Ford has gone terrible, working with a jumper wire and a multimeter.
Disable the ignition method. In case your Ford comes outfitted using a distributor, unplug the ignition coil from the distributor, and ground it on the engine using a jumper wire. In case your vehicle is not outfitted with a distributor, you can get rid of the fuel pump relay or fuse for these exams.
Have a helper flip the ignition essential to "Start." You need to hear a clear click coming from your relay. If not, make sure there's a superior connection at the management circuit wire around the relay; this is often the tiny wire within the terminal marked with an "S." In the event you hear a weak or chattering click, proceed to Phase three. In the event you hear a fantastic click, skip to Step four.
Connect Kess V2 a jumper wire from the favourable battery terminal towards the "S" terminal on the relay. Request your assistant to turn the ignition important to "Start." If you can now hear a good click, the relay is doing work properly. If there is a weak or chattering click, or no sound at all, be sure all the connections to the relay are clean and tight. The relay mounting bracket should make great get in touch with together with the automobile body. If all the connections are clean and tight, but the starter relay still does not function, then change the relay.
Check the voltage drop on just about every cable connection on the starter relay. Touch the probes of a multimeter on both sides of your same connection in the relay. The favourable probe on your meter need to always be within the side with the connection main for the positive side of your electrical existing. Inquire your helper to yet again flip the ignition essential to "Start." The multimeter really should register no more than 0.two units of voltage drop on every connection, according to Ken Freund in "The Haynes Automotive Electrical Manual." Otherwise, make sure the connections are clean and tight. In case you still go through a higher voltage drop, replace the relay.
Unplug the wire at the "S" terminal to the relay. Verify the resistance amongst the terminal as well as the relay mounting bracket working with the multimeter. If there is over five ohms amongst these two points, clean the mounting bracket. In case you nonetheless study a higher resistance, exchange the relay.
Check the key pro m8 for incoming voltage with the relay "S" terminal. Connect the red probe of one's multimeter for the relay terminal as well as black probe to a fantastic ground including a metal bracket or bolt connected to your engine block or cylinder head. Request your helper to turn the ignition critical to "Start." Your meter should register voltage in the course of the test; otherwise, be sure the "S" connection and wire are clean and well-connected. If your voltmeter even now registers no voltage, change the relay.

Ways to Alter Fluid in an E40D Transmission
The Ford E4OD obd2 diagnostic, which stands for electronic four-speed overdrive, was Ford's 1st ever electronically managed transmission. Its predecessor, the C6 transmission, utilised only hydraulic pressure and mechanical linkages to operate. The E4OD uses many electronic sensors through the entire motor vehicle, as well as hydroelectrical solenoids to shift gears. This transmission noticed use in Ford full-size truck and vans, as well as SUVs through the 1990s. Part of keeping the E4OD transmission is usually to alter the fluid periodically. Ford states the fluid need to be modified every single 60,000 miles.
Raise the front with the car with a floor jack and location the jack stands under the frame rails. Reduce the automobile until eventually its fat is only on the jack stands.
Slide the drain pan under the automobile until finally it is actually right under the transmission pan, the metal pan on the bottom of the transmission.
Crawl beneath the car, loosen and remove all but four in the bolts -- depart 1 at every single corner -- from the transmission pan, applying a ratchet and socket. Loosen, but usually do not eliminate, the 4 remaining bolts, working with a ratchet and socket.
Pull down over the transmission pan to free of charge it from your base on the transmission. Fluid will begin to drain from your pan.
Remove the remaining 4 bolts through the pan, utilizing a ratchet and socket, once the fluid has stopped draining. Ensure to hold the pan as you take out these bolts, as there is certainly still fluid while in the pan and it could fall, triggering a large oil spill. Tilt the pan to a single side when all 4 bolts are removed to drain the remainder of your fluid through the pan.
Scrape the pan gasket in the top of the pan, working with the razor blade scraper, and use the abrasive pad to clean the major with the pan.
