FX6100 Car Bidirectional Scan Tool, Full System OBD2 Scanner Diagnostic Tool for All Vehicles, Updates Included, AutoVIN, Active Test, ABS SRS TPMS Transmission EPB Oil Fault Code Reset

Great scanner, worked very well and easy to use, price was competitive, and lifetime updates!!

Good ODB2 Scanner. Very easy to use, great screen and responsive touch screen. A bang for a buck. With lifetime upgrade and update, that’s hella good deal! If Ancel decided to make a new model with more comprehensive and better features with lifetime upgrade and update even if it’s a little more expensive than DS500, then I will 100% buy it.I still prefer an ODB2 with cable than the bluetooth version. The connection is more stable. Live scan with this scanner is also fantastic. Saving reports and file is also very good. Kudos to Ancel for making an ODB2 that can compete with other bigger competitor but not that expensive.

Very good scanner lots of functions little difficult to find some of the functions however no cost for updates so I will work around the issue

Works amazingly so far… the only complaint is that it wants to update the vehicles that I could never run into or even heard of… lol I’m sure that those brands in china are very popular but I don’t want to waste the storage space on cars that I have no need for or will ever see in person. Besides that one issue it works almost as good as the Snapon that I used for years.

Great starter OBD. Very easy to use, unlimited free updates and fast. Definitely add to your tool box.

nice scan tool for the money

Works great!

Does the job in most cases but screenshot to small and hard to get were your navigating to

I’ve been using the ANCEL DS500 Elite it’s one of the most well-rounded diagnostic tools I’ve owned especially for the price. If you’re tired of basic OBD2 scanners that only read engine codes, this is a huge upgrade. What immediately stood out is the full system diagnostics. It doesn’t just scan the engine—it covers ABS, SRS, transmission, BCM, HVAC, and more. The bidirectional (active test) features is a game changer. Being able to command components like fuel pumps, cooling fans, injectors, and actuators makes troubleshooting faster and more accurate instead of just guessing. The 28+ reset services are incredibly useful. I’ve used it for oil resets, EPB, steering angle calibration, throttle relearn, battery registration, and TPMS resets with no issues. It also supports CAN-FD, which is a big plus for newer GM vehicles, and the FCA AutoAuth worked smoothly for Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and RAM models—no frustrating lockouts. Performance-wise, the scanner is fast and responsive. The interface is clean and easy to navigate, even if you’re not a full-time mechanic. Live data graphs are clear, and switching between systems is quick. I also appreciate the lifetime free updates—no surprise subscriptions or paywalls like some other brands. Build quality feels solid, and the screen is bright enough to use in a garage or outdoors. Battery life has been good, and it boots up quickly when you need it. Pros * Full system diagnostics * True bidirectional control (active tests) * 28+ reset and relearn functions * CAN-FD and FCA AutoAuth support * Lifetime free updates (huge win) * Easy-to-use interface Cons * A bit of a learning curve if you’re new to advanced scanners * Not as compact as basic code readers (but that’s expected) Overall, this feels like a professional-grade scan tool that’s accessible to serious DIYers and small shop mechanics. If you want powerful diagnostics without ongoing fees, this scanner is absolutely worth it.

I was looking for a scanner that didn't cost a small fortune and compatible with my 2007 Volvo xc70, and I found it! This scanner is absolutely amazing, super fast health report scanner. I'm able to scan and diagnose problems with my car on my own without having to take to a shop. Being able to recalibrate my steering angle sensor is a great feature to have. The free lifetime updates are great added bonus so all the manufacturers vehicle information is always up to date. The wifi capabilities are great so you're just a click away in finding more information on trouble codes you are getting in the health report. Honestly the best bang for your buck I'm very impressed! I highly recommend this scanner!

Cette "valise" de détection est l'outil ultime pour comprendre sa voiture! C'est vraiment hyper complet, tellement que l'utiliser n'est pas évident si on a pas une formation dessus. Je n'en ai pas eu donc je me suis débrouillé pour explorer ma voiture et franchement je n'ai pas pu comprendre tous les mystère, mtn avec l'aide d'une IA, on peut y venir à bout! Mais c'est assez complexe et tres codifié, donc on peut trouver pas mal d'information mais il faut aussi savoir à quoi sa correspond. Pour ce point la, ça a quand même été bien pensé, car on peut naviguer sur internet avec, car la valise, tourne sous Android, donc elle embarque google chrome, et on peut aller chercher des infos directement sur le net, car ça reste une tablette, sous android, faite pour diagnostiquer les voitures, donc on retrouve les basiques d'une tablette axé sur l'usage du diagnostique. De quoi avoir une aide précieuse (on peut aussi avoir son téléphone à côté et demander à une IA quand on a un problème) J'ai opté pour l'aide de l'IA sur certains point. En tout cas j'ai pu voir quelques problème mineur sur ma voiture (surtout des questions de réglage) n'ayant pas de gros problème sur la voiture l'usage a été assez simple, mais pour un diagnostique poussé, c'est un outil tres complet!! Niveau matériel pur, c'est tres qualité, je m'attendais à moins bien que ça, c'est assez réactif, ça se tient bien en mains, ça semble robuste (je n'ai pas essayé de la balancer au sol, mais ça doit résister à quelques chutes) Le seul point négatif que je trouve à cette valise est d'être trop complète, donc tourné sur un usage professionnel ou utilisateur confirmé.

El Ancel DS500 Elite es claramente un escáner de diagnóstico de gama alta, pensado para quien necesita ir mucho más allá de un lector OBD2 básico. Desde el primer uso se nota que estamos ante una herramienta seria: arranque rápido, interfaz fluida y una pantalla de 7 pulgadas grande y bien iluminada, cómoda tanto en taller como en exteriores. Uno de sus grandes puntos fuertes es el diagnóstico de sistema completo. No se limita al motor, sino que accede sin problemas a ABS, SRS, transmisión, BCM, HVAC y muchos otros módulos. Pero lo que realmente marca la diferencia es el control bidireccional (pruebas activas): poder accionar componentes como ventiladores, bombas de combustible, inyectores o actuadores directamente desde el escáner ahorra tiempo y evita diagnósticos a ciegas. Para localizar fallos reales, esta función es oro puro. En mantenimiento y calibraciones, el DS500 Elite va sobrado. Sus más de 28 funciones de servicio cubren prácticamente todo lo que se espera de una herramienta profesional: reseteo de aceite, EPB, calibración del ángulo de dirección, reaprendizaje del acelerador, registro de batería, TPMS, etc., todo funcionando de forma estable y clara. Además, el soporte CAN-FD lo hace totalmente compatible con vehículos modernos (especialmente GM), y la FCA AutoAuth funciona correctamente en Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep y RAM, evitando bloqueos habituales en otros escáneres. El rendimiento general es muy sólido: lecturas rápidas, datos en tiempo real bien presentados y gráficos fáciles de interpretar. Aunque no seas mecánico profesional, la curva de aprendizaje es razonable para todo lo que ofrece. A esto se suma un punto clave frente a la competencia: actualizaciones gratuitas de por vida, sin suscripciones ocultas ni pagos anuales, algo especialmente importante en un producto de este precio. La construcción se siente robusta, la batería cumple bien y el conjunto transmite fiabilidad a largo plazo. No es el escáner más compacto, pero es un compromiso lógico teniendo en cuenta su potencia y capacidades. En resumen, el Ancel DS500 Elite es una herramienta realmente profesional, ideal para mecánicos independientes y usuarios avanzados que quieren diagnósticos completos y precisos sin depender de cuotas. Por prestaciones, compatibilidad y política de actualizaciones, es una inversión muy bien justificada. Le doy 5 estrellas. Producto top.
