Frequently Asked

Good to know before you buy.

• Is the software updated regularly? Are updates free?: Yes! The iCarsoft FR V4.0 includes lifetime free software upgrades via Wi-Fi. There are zero annual subscription fees or hidden costs. You pay once and get continuous software updates forever.
• The FR V4.0 cannot recognize my vehicle by AutoVIN, does it mean the device is faulty?: Not at all. AutoVIN depends on individual vehicle ECU protocols. If AutoVIN skips your car, simply use the Manual Selection mode—all diagnostic and service functions will work perfectly. Meanwhile, please send your VIN to our support team; we will verify it and add it to our database in the next software update.
• DTCs can be read normally but fail to be cleared or reappear after clearance, why?: Keep the ignition ON and the engine OFF. Record freeze-frame data before clearing codes. Persistent hardware faults must be physically repaired before codes will clear. Some SRS / ABS codes only clear after the relevant bidirectional test is completed.
• The scanner powers on but fails to establish a diagnostic connection. What causes this issue?: Please check the following steps to troubleshoot:
  • Check Vehicle Compatibility: Ensure your vehicle is covered by the FR V4.0, please kindly refer to the vehicle coverage of FR V4.0.
  • Turn Off Power-Saving: Disable any eco/battery-saving modes on the vehicle that might shut down modules during diagnosis.
  • Update Device: Connect to Wi-Fi and update both the firmware and vehicle software to the latest versions.
  • Check Ignition: Ensure the vehicle key is turned to the “ON” position.
• What’s the difference between FR V4.0 and the older FR V3.0?: The FR V4.0 is the upgraded successor to the FR V3.0. It transforms the traditional button-operated scanner into a smart 5″ Android touchscreen device, adding convenient one-click Wi-Fi updates and advanced ECU coding—all without needing a PC.

The iCarsoft FR V4.0 combines advanced diagnostics, bidirectional testing, Renault coding and maintenance functions in one handheld scanner. Compatibility and available functions vary by vehicle make, model, production year and ECU configuration. ECU coding is currently specified for compatible Renault vehicles from 2005 onward; coding availability for other brands may depend on future software updates. Please confirm compatibility using your vehicle's VIN before purchasing.
