Default HT200 Scan Tool (MAINTENANCE RESET!)

Wanted to share some information with the group. I took a chance and purchased an HT200 bluetooth scan tool from Wally world this weekend. It was $49.99 so I had low expectations. It worked to reset the maintenance interval light right from my phone. Interesting enough this thing was able to read every code on pretty much every module within the car. I found over 50 old codes and was able to clear them. Honestly I'm very impressed with this little dude. I don't sell or advertise for these guys by the way. It works on my 2011 XJL... Hope if works for your guys.

For those interested in this, it is made by AutoTel. I found it on e-bay for $33.20 delivered to my house. FYI. Worst case, it will give me a second code reader to keep in the wife's car should I need it.

madman1133, you are right, that is an impressive little tool for what you pay. I am still playing with it, but you can access just about everything except programming computers. Granted, it would appear that there are a few things that you would be able to program (EPB, throttlebody, and some others).. This is my new favorite tool for the car just to check up on stuff and see what is going on. If you scroll through some of hte menus, you can pretty much look at every switch in the car. I found a spot that you could press the buttons on the steering wheel and it would tell you when each was depressed. I can see that coming in handy as the car gets some more years on her. Then you have access to all the sunroof motor drive and limit switches. The list is seemingly never ending.

Now, I do have to admit that the software (atleast for the moment as I go through everything for the first time) seems a little clumbsy as it keeps asking you for the VIN number of the car to verify it has the correct parameters. It will pull the VIN from the car, but it seems like a wasted step to get you to where you need to be. Getting the software into your phone threw me for a loop, granted, I was trying to use a desktop computer to get my registration information and then downloading the app via the phone. The system doesn't seem to like that. You have to do everything over the phone. But, after that, it set itself up for the most part.

Overall, for what it costs, it is a tool that I would recommend all the backyard mechanics get. I know I haven't seen all the data, but there is a butt ton of it. If anything, I would say it can be almost overwhelming how much there is to look at.

Thanks much for posting this!

I have multiple scanner/dongles and they never seem to include everything I need.
Can't believe I purchased it for $25 on EBay too!

Just got it but IF it will reset my service light for oil changes I will be free from returning to the dealer.
The XJ should of had a reset using the dash buttons like the XF!

It looks like the download is available on the Apple I-store for... free?
With add-ons for certain makes for $21.99.

Walmart comes up as "no longer available".
It's made by Autel, from what I find. Can't find anything from "Autotel".
Is it a different tool?

12jagmark, you are correct, it is Autel, not autotel.

Can you point me to where you can reset the service monitor?

I can read the car and did find a boatload of historic codes that I erased.
Inside the app's home page you touch service and it brings up a big list with oil reset listed at the very top. But when you touch the oil reset it just pops you back into the diagnosis?
I have installed the Jaguar pack and it shows as installed on the home page but sometimes the app loads the mail button where the Jaguar pack is listed at $15.

I can see and read 32 modules plus for people who think the dealer can't see your tune.
This device can see it too!




Here is the error code.



So has anybody actually reset an XJ service light with this?

The reset is through the i pack as when we have issue with not reseting, not saying service reset or reseting when we did and it pops on a few days later the repair is a instrument pack software load

clubairth, I had the same thing happen with mine. The service reminder went out for a few days and then just recently has popped back on. now, I don't know if it may have coincided with a check engine light that came on at the same time. Let me look through mine. i want to say you need to be on the home page, then you need to select "service", then you can go in a screen or two and you will see where it talks about resetting service light. It is a bit of an involved process. But, it turned it off for atelast a few days.

Brutal thanks for the comment but can you expand it a bit?
Not sure what's your suggestion?
A software update for the IP will reset the light?

there can be 3 issues per bulletin whatever the number is that needs to have the ipack software updated.
1, wont reset
2, wont come on
3, resets and comes on a few days later again
number 3 to me is most common, then number 1
thats why i brought it up

OK sorry I misunderstood.
My service light works properly the dealer turned it off on my last oil change.
I am still trying to figure out if my HT200 can do it?

clubairth1, I did it with my HT200, but then it came back on a few days later. So, not sure if it is as Brutal says that it turns it off temporarily or if mine came back because of a CEL issue.

Well, that sucks. It did not come back on in my car so I don't know what's different. Pretty much the only thing I had to do was go to service and reset it.

Did you ever get this figured out?

No I have not and it would be great to get that! Hope you can post to the list for everyone's benefit?
I have an SDD too but I was impressed with all this could read.

I have one and it works great resetting my oil service light 100% of the time. Also handy for reading live data and recording it, locking your suspension height to adjust your headlights, clearing codes, etc. It's just a rebadged autel AP200 to sell at walmart under their Hyper Tough name brand. Other then the previously mentioned clumsy software interface I think its a great tool for the money.

I will take some pictures of it as soon as I get my car sorted. I have the entire cooling system apart and battery disconnected.

I was, however, playing with my wife's car today. Here is where it's at without screenshots.

1. Open HT200 app
2. Click on Service. Its 1/3 down from the top sitting next to EOBD.
3. Click Oil Reset
4. This should prompt you to select the car module "Jaguar"
5. Follow the prompts...

Hi,

Thanks for this thread: I already have 6 or 7 obdii readers, but this one seems to be far above what my systems do, with much more capabilities going almost as far as some pro systems costing 500+ USD... so I think I will order one...

Did anybody try if the battery registration/BMS reset did function on X150 and/or X351?
Same question for remote programming:, I suppose it may associate a virgin immobilizer transponder to the car, but certainly not program a new key into the car?

Thanks,

Thierry
