Just received the iCarsoft 3.0 Diagnostic tool. I couldn't find anywhere if this unit has a shutdown before you unplug it or not. Is it OK to just unplug from the car when you are through?
I'm thinking of picking this unit up as well, so I will listen here with interest. The consensus seems to be that this unit does NOT exhibit the battery draining problem that some others do, but your question is a good one. Is that only if you do some formal disconnect in the software of the unit, or will a physical unplug without doing anything special be okay? Hmmm
Have you used it much at all? What are your initial impressions of it?
I would not just unplug it,bring it back to the original screen,incase a module has not finished doing its thing ,it's a great unit you can operate actuators, control air, lights,keys etc, make you upload latest version, it will reset a new battery install replacement
you'll never get a drain with this unit
Just started using this unit. I don't have any problems or lights, but with 2 F-Type cars, I thought it would be a good investment if future problems pop up.It seems very easy to use and has tons of info on it. I liked it because it was specific to the Jag. I also have anohter iCarsoft unit for other automobile makes. I did go back to the main screen before unplugging it. I also purchased this unit due to other forum members suggustions, along with the fact you can unplug without worrying about your battery being drained.
