Global Automotive Diagnostics Tool Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025
An automotive diagnostics tool is a device or software used to diagnose issues within a vehicle's electronic systems. These tools connect to the vehicle's onboard computer, typically through an OBD-II (Onboard Diagnostics) port, to retrieve error codes and real-time data related to engine performance, emissions, and other critical systems like transmission, ABS, and airbags. By analyzing these codes and data, mechanics and vehicle owners can identify and troubleshoot problems, ensuring quicker repairs and maintenance. Advanced diagnostic tools also offer features like live data streaming, system tests, and the ability to clear error codes after repairs.
