VW Audi VAS 5052A

It is the third generation diagnosis tester which has now reached our workshops. It is triggered by the new diagnosis standard ASAM (Association for Standardization of Automation-and Measuring Systems). Prepared for future diagnosis software and hardware (remote head VAS5054/VAS5054A) thanks to employment of the latest technical options.  Enhanced by amendments over previous model from customer requests. Workshop compatibility, ease of use and mobility go without saying.

With the vehicle diagnosis and service information system VAS 5052A, the successful care concept for modern vehicle systems is continued in a consistent manner. The functions/operating modes “Vehicle self-diagnosis”, “OBD”, “Guided fault finding”, “Guided functions”, etc. are comparable with those from VAS5052.

Interrogation of fault memory in all control units, update programming of control units or resetting service interval display have no differences in use with today’s functions. A scan tool mode allows data transfer, as prescribed within the scope of onboard diagnosis (OBD), with the emissions influencing control units of all manufacturers.

Service information such as service tables, current flow diagrams, etc. (ELSA) is displayed on the screen of the equipment and reduces the amount of paper required in the workshop quite considerably. The required information is made available directly at the site of repair and with very up-to-date data. The necessary interfaces are installed for access to service information on local servers or internet data. Service information for non-brand dealerships are offered on CD-ROM and via the internet (erWin = Electronic Repair and Workshop Information). This means that VAS052A is offered once again with a complete solution (hardware and software) of diagnosis and service information for this range of customers as well.

The multimedia capability of the equipment also allows direct connection to the Service Training concept (multimedia training) from Volkswagen. The equipment is prepared for use with diagnosis software ODIS (Off board Diagnosis Strategy). Details about ordering ODIS can be gleaned from the service Net or speak to the person responsible for your market from OTLG or your importer.
