iCarsoft Japanese Vehicle Scan Tool

If you own or work on Japanese vehicles, the iCarsoft TYT v1.0 is a must-have addition to your toolkit. Designed specifically for popular Japanese makes like Toyota, Nissan, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Honda and more, this powerful scan tool goes far beyond what generic OBD2 code readers can offer.

Many scan tools on the market struggle with Japanese vehicles — especially older imports that use pre-OBD2 protocols or manufacturer-specific systems. The TYT v1.0 bridges that gap by offering full coverage across major systems like engine, transmission, airbags (SRS), ABS brakes, instrument cluster, and body control modules. It also handles service functions such as oil light resets and component testing.

Whether you're chasing a persistent check engine light or just want better visibility into how your vehicle is performing, the TYT gives you access to real-time data readings, freeze frame snapshots, and full ECU information. It's a stand-alone handheld tool with a colour screen and intuitive menu system, meaning no extra software or apps required. Just plug it in and start scanning.

It’s also ideal for vehicles that are technically OBD2-compliant but have limited support in cheaper universal scan tools. Many Japanese cars sold in NZ from the early 2000s fall into this category, and this unit is one of the few tools that can reliably talk to them.

On top of that, it still supports standard OBD2 engine diagnostics for all compliant makes and models. So if you own more than one car, this scanner will likely cover them too.

We’re the official New Zealand distributor for iCarsoft, so you’ll receive genuine stock with full local support, a 1-year warranty. Plus, all iCarsoft tools come with free lifetime updates — no subscriptions or hidden costs.
