Launch does it again. Power in the hands of the home mechanic.
The CRP123e is both a basic AND advanced scan tool. It does generic odb2 and steps it up like advanced readers with extended module access like the srs, abs and tcm units. But then for the prices takes it to a whole new level with built in features you can purchase later. (Assuming you come across needing them) This puts your cars modern electronics in your hands. Many newer cars require a scan tool to reset oil and maintenance lights. And even more require you to program in parts you've just replaced, some as simple as a brake job now a days! So you're able to take the CRP123e scan tool and add on even more powerful features at your leisure. There's no need to buy a super expensive scan tool that can do everything out of the box when you only need 1 or 2 things. Save money with a Launch 123e with having all the features most need and the ability to add on when needed. On my attached pictures I tried to show just how easy to was to pull computer codes, specifically I was after the ABS light but it also showed me pending codes as well I was unaware of. Literally a couple taps and it auto identifies your VIN, scans for available modules and then reads and pulls any codes they're store. In the end, the CRP123e is as EASY as 1 2 3, the way it should be when working on your vehicle. ... show more

5/5 Stars ⭐️
First impression upon unboxing: “nice!” It’s not bulky. It feels nice in your hands. The scanner itself is rugged, solid. It doesn’t feel “sensitive”. The diagnostic cable is solid as well. Not some generic cheap cable like other scanners. First use was on an 2009 Mustang. VIN scan was fast. No lagging, no glitching during the scan or maneuvering through the different apps. The report is easy to read and understand. Typically it would show a detailed report if vehicle has check engine light on or scanner detects any other problems such as misfires, system too lean, or EGR flow insufficiency etc. There is also a DTC look up that comes in handy so you don’t have to Google search on your cellphone. Another thing that would be pretty useful if you work on multiple cars at once, is the diagnostic report history function. It pretty much saves all your scans, detections and reports for you. All in all, it’s a great scanner. The size is great. It’s convenient, useful, of quality and a reasonable price for all that it does. Oh, it also comes with a TPMS re-learn device that helps re-learn your TPMS sensors after being service. It’s cool to have if you work on your own vehicles. Definitely recommend! ... show more

Pretty good
Set name: X431 PRO5
I had a launch x431 v4.0 before and bought this one to upgrade. I love the launch scantools. It does 90% of the functions I need. I very rarely have to grab the snap on or autel scanner. For people stuck on the fence between a pro5 or smaller x431v4.0. the only real difference i see is the jbox for programming modules through manufacturers websites. It works well,I have tried it with gm,Chrysler,ford and a couple of others with no problem. I do wish they would send the link to download drivers for the j box because they are a pain to find online but they are out there. It's a great scan tool. The bigger screen is a huge plus.its very easy to use,the topology is a very nice feature that my old one did not have and the battery life is great. I use it all day and have to charge it only once a week. The only problem I have so far is the diagnostic app crashes sometimes when you use Google at the same time but I'm sure that will be fixed with an update. ... show more

DO NOT BUY INSURANCE THROUGH ASURION
Set name: X431 PRO5
i WOULD GIVE A 1 STAR IF I WAS REVIEWING JUST FOR ASURION, BUT THAT IS NOT FAIR TO THE SELLER AND I love this Launch X431 PRO 5 – it’s an excellent diagnostic tool and worked perfectly for my vehicles. Unfortunately, when it failed and I filed a claim under my Asurion/Verizon Home Device Protect coverage, Asurion required me to mail in the unit and then valued it at only about $63 after roughly one year of use, even though tools like this still sell in the $1,100–$1,500 range. Because of that huge depreciation and the claim fee I had to pay, I ended up without my scanner and with far less than it would cost to replace it. The scanner itself is great, but buyer beware of extended insurance through Asurion – in my experience, they did not come close to covering the real cost of this device. ... show more

Great Scan Tool with J2534
Set name: X431 PRO5
Great scan tool for anyone and everyone, from a novice to a professional. Features range from topology scanning, pre scans, post scans, ADAS calibrations, module programming and a lot more. I upgraded to this tool after using a different X431 model for the past two years. Highly recommend.
