- Live Data: reading and displaying ECU/PCM parameters in real time, building graphs and saving to a log file.
- I/M readiness status: checking emission-related systems for compliance with standards.
- Viewing freeze frame data: analysis of conditions recorded by the onboard computer when an error occurs.
- O₂ sensor test: extraction and viewing of oxygen sensor test results.
- Onboard computer diagnostics: checking vehicle components and systems.
- Reading vehicle information: VIN (identification number), CID and CVN.
- Component testing: activation of individual units to check their functionality.
- ECU coding: reprogramming of adaptive data after repair (VIN compatibility check required).
- Automatic VIN detection: the scanner reads VIN when connected to the diagnostic port.
- Determination of actual mileage: reading data from individual electronic units.
- Special functions: 16 service procedures for quality maintenance (adaptation, programming, etc.).

Important Information about FCA (SGW) License
Many FCA group vehicles (Fiat, Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge, Alfa Romeo, etc.) manufactured since 2017 are equipped with a Secure Gateway Module (SGW). This module restricts full access to the vehicle's internal systems through the standard OBD‑port.
License for FCA / SGW is an official authorization that allows the Thinkdiag 2 scanner to "unlock" SGW and gain full access to all vehicle blocks and functions, including reading/erasing errors, activations, calibrations, adaptations and bi‑directional/active tests.
Note: FCA license is not included in the basic annual subscription. If necessary, it can be purchased separately through the application.
