Software Download
The Software Download function of TIS is used to update the Tech 2 scan tool software to the latest
version. Like all computers, the Tech 2 scan tool stores software that determines how it runs and what it
can do. This software allows the scan tool to perform diagnostic routines on or for the following vehicle
applications: Powertrain, Body, Chassis, and Service Programming.
Scan tool software is regularly updated to reflect changes in vehicle engineering or diagnostics. As
changes to the scan tool software are developed, they are released to the dealership through a satellite
broadcast or a data CD in a stand-alone environment. Scan tool software updates can include new vehicle
and system coverage, updates to original application releases, and fixes to known software concerns.
