The Capabilities of J2534 and CarDAQ-M

The CarDAQ-M is the most complete J2534 pass-thru device available

today. The capabilities of CarDAQ-M are largely determined by software

the vehicle manufacturers provide. More information on specific

manufacturers can be found in the J2534 Toolbox.

Reprogramming with J2534

J2534 and federal law mandate that automakers allow shop technicians

the ability to re-flash emissions-related vehicle electronic control units,

typically engine and transmission controllers. Some automakers allow for

more modules, and some have enabled factory diagnostics. Use the J2534

Toolbox for more information on the capability provided from each

manufacturer.
