Snap-on Releases New Diagnostic Software Features

The Snap-on diagnostic Software Upgrade 18.2 is more powerful than ever with new features that build on well-known OEM-specific general and collision repair coverage core competencies to offer added speed, access and accuracy.


The Snap-on diagnostic Software Upgrade 18.2 is more powerful than ever with new features that build on well-known OEM-specific general and collision repair coverage core competencies to offer added speed, access and accuracy. In addition to OEM-specific coverage for 100 vehicle systems and 49 manufacturers with more than 400,000 new and enhanced codes, data, tests and tips and 2017 model year coverage, Software Upgrade 18.2 provides brand new platform features so technicians can get the information they need right on the tool.

One feature is Edge Series and ZEUS platforms’ new quick lookups found on the home screen of the tool for fast access. The tire and wheel service lookup offers informational reset procedures, scanner reset procedures and tire fitment and repair procedures. The quick lookup for oil change and service resets tells how much oil a vehicle takes without ever leaving the bay when performing an oil change reset.

Other time-saving tool-specific features help service vehicles faster and more accurately, such as unbelievably fast boot-up, a printable vehicle system report, exclusive TSBs, campaigns and recalls and SureTrack expert information. The latest software also offers expanded functional tests, resets, adaptions, Fast-Track Guided Component Tests, Auto ID, One-Touch Code Scan and Clear, and much more.

The newest diagnostic solution innovation in the market is Intelligent Diagnostics. Intelligent Diagnostics is software that is comprehensive enough to guide technicians through every step required to find the solution, while eliminating the steps they don’t need, displaying only information that is relevant to the specific vehicle and fault code.
