Start Diagnostics

This helps repair shops or mechanics to diagnose a remote vehicle, and launch instant 
messages, allowing for improved efficiency and faster repairs.

Smart Diagnosis(AutoDetect):

This tool supports three kinds of diagnosis approaches: Smart Diagnosis, Manual Diagnosis 
and Tech to Tech Remote Diagnosis.

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.

You need to manually select the menu-driven command.
