Read, erase and save DTCs
The handy format makes it easy to carry the unit, and it also comes with a protective rubber shell. The connection to the car is done via a HDMI-OBDII cable without screws. The DTCs are presented with fault code numbers in the display and they can be erased if needed. Explanations to the generic DTCs are showed directly in the display, and the explanations to the manufacturer specific DTCs are showed at your customer site www.bsr.se/ppc after you have synchronized the PPC unit via the Internet. When synchronizing, the DTC history is saved for each car, and at the same time, the PPC unit is updated with the latest functions.

Read all generic DTCs from all car makes
Generic DTCs are legally established trouble codes that are used by all car manufacturers. The meaning of a code is the same regardless of the manufacturer. Generic DTCs were introduced gradually from 1996 on cars following the OBDII standard. The DTCs don´t describe a problem in detail but more in general terms. PPC 3 Diagnostic System can handle all types of generic trouble codes from all car makes that follow the OBDII standard.

Read all manufacturer specific DTCs from Volvo and Saab
Manufacturer specific DTCs are the manufacturer´s own unique trouble codes. The number of manufacturer specific codes is larger, and they describe problems more extensively and specifically. In a car there are several control units that handle the engine, transmission, ABS, airbag, radio, air conditioning and much more. Unlike some cheaper code readers that also read manufacturer specific codes, the PPC 3 Diagnostic System communicates with all control units in the car, which means that it can handle all manufacturer specific trouble codes in a Saab or Volvo, not just the most common ones.
