TOPDON Phoenix Lite2 Automotive OBD2 Diagnostic Machine with Japanese Support for BMW, Benz, Audi ECU Coding, JOBD, Daihatsu Support, All-in-One Diagnostic Machine for Domestic and Imported Cars, Full

FCA SGWの自動認証 の作業手順を教えてください。

まったく使えない原因がわかりました。OBD2に接続するMDCI（bluetooth仕様）のシリアル番号とパスワードレターに記載されているシリアル番号が異なっていたため、診断機とのペアリングできない状態になっていました。メーカー出荷時に起きた問題で、問題発覚後に再発防止の対策を取られたそうです。私はマニュアルに記載されているサポートセンターに連絡しましたが返事がなく、レビューに状況を記載した後にセールス担当者から連絡がありました。セールス担当者からアマゾンで購入した場合はアマゾンのサイト経由で販売者に連絡するとお返事がいただけるとコメントをいただきました。実際に動作の不具合に対応したのはLAUNCHの技術者でリモートで診断機を操作して原因がわかりました。 本機の性能はカタログの通りで、特にアクティブテストは故障個所の特定に有用です。アップデートも頻繁に必要のようで、WiFi環境（必須）が整っていれば快適に使えると思います。 初期不良がなければ星５（優）ですが、星３（可）とさせていただきます。

I recently purchased the TOPDON Phoenix Lite 2 scanner and had a chance to use it on several vehicles. The Phoenix Lite 2 is a very well-built unit and has a premium, semi-soft finish in hand. The unit looks and feels great in person – looks very tough/rugged. The Phoenix Lite 2 comes equipped with different extensions, owner manuals, and is packaged in a rugged plastic case. It's light-weight, easy to use, and arrived fully charged. The user interface is nice and simple, has a straightforward menu selection making it very easy to use and navigate through options. The Wi-Fi connection was very easy to set-up and establish connection. Additionally, scanning/diagnosing/clearing errors was very fast. I’m very happy with the unit and the quality service/assistance that I received from TOPDON customer service team. I would recommend this scanner to anyone who is looking for a very capable bi-directional scan tool for DIY or commercial work.

Having come from and routinely use scanners from the likes of Autel, Launch, and SnapOn, the Topdon Phoenix Lite 2 offers an excellent balance of performance and value for a sub $800 scan tool. It is compact enough to be easily handled and stored, but big enough that you're not fighting to read or see what it has to offer. Holding the unit, it has a thick protective rubber case, which offers excellent grip and undoubtedly very good protection from any incidentals. The layout of the operating system is easy to navigate and very intuitive to use. If you're ever used a tablet style scan tool, you'll have no issues navigating and using the Phoenix Lite 2. Unlike most other scan tools of this nature however, I don't see any way to access the tablet's operating system, which honestly, I personally don't mind, but if you're looking to utilize the scanner for tasks other than what it is intended to do, this might not be the ideal tool for you. You do have access to a web browser, various social media apps, and some useful automotive repair related preset links, which for me is more than adequate. Software and firmware updates are easy to initiate (one click) and quicker than any of the other scan tools I have ever owned. Two years of free updates is definitely a plus, but the cost to upgrade thereafter is somewhere between $450 and $550 a year, which is a bit high IMO. It's cheaper than what some of the aforementioned competitors charge, but on the high side when you factor the system's cost basis. For someone using this as an aid to earn a living, that annual upgrade amount may not be such a big factor, but for the average DIY'er, it might be a hard pill to swallow. The whole system comes in a nice and sturdy storage case, loaded with adapters for the most popular make and model vehicles. Although the hard case is great, I opted to purchase (see my profile for the review) a smaller tactical style soft case, aka molle pouch, for everyday use. It fits the tablet, the wireless dongle, and charging hardware perfectly. Battery life is excellent and far better than any of my other scan tools. Another small but noteworthy feature is the built-in stand. It is easy to deploy and position to accommodate any angle or surface condition. In the module sub menu, there are links for the optional wireless BTMobile ProS battery tester (not to be confused with the Pro model), an oscilloscope and thermal image camera. All of which are optional devices but nicely incorporated into the device. I've used the scanner on a handful of vehicles thus far, and it's proving to be a quite capable compact scan tool. It can easily keep up with and or even out pace scanners costing twice as much. The autoscan feature works well and is relatively fast. Some vehicles take longer than others, and just like any other scan tool, you will on occasion run into those that don't scan at all. If and when you do encounter an application that won't auto scan, Inputting vehicle data manually only takes a few seconds, so it's not a deal breaker by any means. The history function which keeps track of previously scanned vehicles / modules is a great feature. It allows you to go back and see things you may need to reference for repairs or knowledge. All in all, I am quite impressed with this little scan tool. Whether you're a shade tree DIY type enthusiast, or a full-time gear head, this is definitely one scan tool you might want to keep around for all your daily diagnostic needs. It'll never replace a dealer level scan tool, but in most cases, 75% of those who need a scan tool, don't necessarily need dealer level access and or function ability. Last but not least, and to set the record straight, scanners at this price point will always have their inherent limitations. You will always encounter certain vehicles and or applications that have limited functionality. If there's something specific you're looking to do or test, I suggest you reach out to the manufacturer with the make and model vehicle you intend to work on and ask if it is compatible or capable of the task at hand prior to your purchase. The manufacturer has always been very communicative whenever I've had a question or concern.

As a DIY car guy, I couldn’t be happier with the Phoenix Lite 2. It really feels like I have a professional shop tool in my own garage. What I love most is how easy it is to use right out of the box. The big 8-inch screen makes everything clear, and the wireless connection means I don’t have to fight with cables while moving around the car. The battery lasts a long time too, so I can work at my own pace without rushing. The coverage is outstanding. I’ve been able to scan every system on my vehicles, not just the engine. It’s great being able to see live data, check ABS and airbag systems, and know what’s really going on. The bi-directional controls are a game changer — I can test components like fans, windows, and injectors with a tap of the screen. Another huge plus for me is the service functions. Oil reset, EPB, TPMS, DPF regen — all the things that would normally send me to a shop I can now handle at home. It feels good to take control of my own maintenance. The tablet itself is solid and well-built. It feels rugged enough to handle being in the garage, and the kickstand makes it easy to set down while I work. Overall, this scanner has given me the confidence to take on jobs I never would have before. It’s like unlocking a whole new level of DIY car repair. Highly recommend it for anyone who likes working on their own vehicles and wants a powerful, easy-to-use tool.

I found the User interface really intuitive on this tool. I also really like the client matching and logging that is able to be done on the device. It also syncs with my other devices to store the collected data and keep a history of clients and our work. It's a super high quality build and is the go to tool for diag. 4

I run a small 1 person, 3 bay auto-repair shop and this tool will pay for itself quickly with the capabilities it packs. In only a few weeks, this tool has proven it can do what I will need it to, and the company seems to be on top of customer service, which drove me away from Autel, Launch, Xtool, and others. The Phoenix lite 2 comes with all power adapters I could imagine most people will ever need. There's lots of OBD1 adapters as well as extra fuses for the power adapters that are included. Everything seems well thought out. For the money the construction of the tool/tablet is much higher quality and solid feeling in the hand than I would have imagined. Honestly, this feels like a better built tool in your hand than a Snap-On scanner. The menus and navigation take a little bit of time to get used to but I have been able to use it for some pretty complex resets and diagnostic repairs on Toyota hybrid and ABS systems, modern Ford KAM data clearing and relearn procedures as well as diagnostic work. The amount of access to live data, recording capabilities, the fact that it can be used as a tablet to access information on the internet, it truly shocking for the money. Updating the tool is easy, and free for two years. The battery arrived with 98% charge and has been holding a charge very well without needing to be charged very often. The PDF diagnostic reports that it automatically generates are pretty slick and will definitely help generate money with this tool in a shop environment, these are saved to the tool and can be emailed directly to your shop computer or the customer or both.
