This month, we take a dive into three critical areas of change related to the repair and maintenance of vehicle starting and charging systems: module reprogramming, ADAS system repair and recalibration, and Start-Stop systems. Each of these areas are evolving quickly and all have major impacts to the equipment needed…
Reprogramming Isn’t Just for High End Euros
This month, we are featuring a guest article from Tanner Brandt. Tanner is the owner of Tanner’s Auto Clinic, a mobile diagnostic and programming business. He also teaches for CARQUEST Technical Institute and Worldpac Technical Institute and is a guest contributor to VehicleServicePros.com. “Helping to better the automotive industry through…
Clean, Stable, Responsive – What Does This Mean in a Power Supply
When we talk about our new flashing power supply models, PL6100 and PL6800, we often reference features related to stability – how clean is the power being provided, how quickly does the power supply respond to an increase in load, does the power supply minimize the voltage dip that corresponds…
Smart, Stable, Powerful
The PRO-LOGIX PL6100 is designed to provide stable power, on demand up to 100 amps, to a vehicle electrical system to support module reprogramming. It also provides full service battery charging capability from 10A-60A output, to service everything from small vehicle batteries to Group 31 batteries. In power supply mode,…
The Need for Clean Power During a Programming Event
A few years ago, we posted an article about the need for clean power during diagnosis and on-vehicle maintenance and repair. This includes diagnosing electrical system components, such as fuses, relays and more. It also includes repairs to electronic systems, such as electronic brake jobs, which would be severely disrupted…
