ZF Aftermarket launch new diagnostics tool
ZF Aftermarket has launched ZF [pro]Diagnostics, a one-stop shop solution designed to meet the evolving needs of today’s workshops. “Selected distributors” will be able to sell the new tool, while it will also be available through the WABCO Customer Centre e-commerce webshop.
This new diagnostics platform combines the power of two tools – ZF MultiScan and ZF Scan – allowing technicians to read and repair over 35,000 different systems across a wide range of vehicle brands, including not only passenger cars but also trucks, trailers and buses.
ZF [pro]Diagnostics is billed as a versatile, user-friendly platform that simplifies diagnostics with features, like Secure Gateway access to protected vehicle systems, remote diagnostics for expert support on complex cases, and flexible subscription options to meet the financial needs of different workshops.
The platform is compatible with all major diagnostic protocols, such as Diagnostics over Internet Protocol (DoIP) and CAN FD, to facilitate fast, stable and secure data transfer. The ZF [pro]Diagnostics tool will be available for purchase through “selected distributors” and the WABCO Customer Centre ecommerce webshop.
Combines ZF Multiscan and ZF Scan
ZF MultiScan offers multi-brand diagnostics, supporting tens of thousands of vehicle models across various categories, including LCVs, trucks, trailers and buses. The platform incorporates all known diagnostic protocols, including Diagnostics over Internet Protocol (DoIP) and CAN FD, ensuring quick, secure and established data transfer.
Its extensive database allows for quick and accurate troubleshooting on key vehicle systems, while PassThru functionality enhances in-house service capabilities by unlocking OE Secure Gateways. ZF Scan, meanwhile, focuses on ZF Groupspecific components and systems, merging legacy applications, like WABCO SD1.0, ZF Testman and Toolbox+ into one suite. It is designed to simplify work, featuring a single desktop icon to start the ZF [pro]Diagnostics Suite for all diagnostic work.
ZF Scan also features a quick vehicle health scan to capture ECU and DTC data efficiently, and positions workshops to meet new secure vehicle access regulations easily.
“Empowering Workshops”
ZF Aftermarket Technical Support and Training Lead, Stuart Mcleod, said: “With ZF [pro]Diagnostics, we are empowering workshops to perform diagnostics with a level of precision previously reserved for manufacturers. This tool is the perfect blend of extensive functionality and ease of use, enabling workshops to serve their customers with confidence and efficiency.”
