Xtool EZ500 Review: read pin codes, program keys, read/clear DTCs

I’ve only had Xtool EZ500 pad for a fewdays,and will update my review as I get more familiar with mine, but so far I’m very impressed.


The unit appears to be built very well and has a solid, professional feel to it.Activating / registeringit online was simple and only took a few minutes.


The carrying case is well designed and well built, and carries the scanner and all the adapters, cables, charger, etc. very well (though for convenience I’ll probably get a small case just large enough for thescanner / cable/ OBD2adapter / chargersince that’s what I’ll be using 90% of the time.)


Last weekend, ihad it onFord Mondeo 2011. Read and clear fault codes. Work fast.


Look here: iattached photos here

Satisfied!


Update:

Today, I haveEZ500on a 2008 Jeep Wrangler and 2001 Ford Sport Trac


2008 Jeep Wrangler: read PIN code & program keys and appears to be accessing all other modules on that vehicle.

2001 FordSportTrac:access all functions well.

I test it and it can record and playback live data.

It is really good and when it can diagnosis reports in PDF file.


Also, on both of thesevehiclesit appeared to work fast.


If it proves to be durable, I think it is well worth the price
