How does JalTool vehicle coverage work?
Coverage is selected according to your workshop requirements. Available choices include CV, CV + AGV + OHW, or Complete Coverage with MHE, GSE and Marine. Functions are available for the vehicle categories included in the selected activation.
Does JalTool require an annual subscription fee?
No recurring annual JalTool subscription payment is required to continue using the purchased and activated configuration.
What does lifetime use mean?
Lifetime use means you can continue using the JalTool configuration that you purchased, received and activated without paying an annual JalTool renewal fee.
It refers to continued use of that supplied configuration and should not automatically be interpreted as including every future database version, hardware replacement or additional service.
Are all future JalTool updates free for life?
Lifetime use and lifetime updates are different. Your purchased and activated configuration remains usable, but future database versions, newly released update services or additional support may be offered under separate terms.
The update arrangement applicable to an order should be stated in the quotation or order confirmation.
What do I purchase first?
Retail customers can purchase the JalTool hardware first for USD 250 plus shipping. The hardware includes the main unit and the standard cable and accessory set supplied with the order.
After delivery, the hardware can be tested for 3 days. The activation fee is paid only after the required coverage is confirmed.
Can I buy the hardware without activation first?
Yes. Retail customers may purchase the hardware first and test it for 3 days before paying the activation fee.
Existing accessories should be checked before ordering because connector appearance alone does not guarantee compatibility.
Which hardware is supplied?
The hardware order includes the JalTool main unit and the standard cable and accessory set confirmed before payment.
Exact contents should be confirmed before payment because the required connector set may depend on the vehicle categories being serviced.
Do I need to provide my own computer?
Computer requirements depend on the diagnostic software and the customer's workshop setup. Confirm the required computer specification with JalTool support before ordering.
How much does the JalTool hardware cost?
The JalTool hardware price is USD 250. Activation pricing depends on the selected coverage and is confirmed separately.

Is shipping included in the hardware price?

The hardware price is USD 250. The final shipping cost and any activation fee will be confirmed before payment.
Where is JalTool produced and shipped from?
JalTool products are produced, prepared and dispatched from Vietnam.
How long does delivery take?
Delivery time depends on product preparation, destination, customs processing and the selected shipping service.
An estimated dispatch and delivery period should be included in the quotation or order confirmation.
Are customs duties and import taxes included?

- Incorrect vehicle or ECU selection
- Incorrect cable or adapter
- Vehicle ignition not in the required position
- Low vehicle battery voltage
- Damaged diagnostic connector or wiring
- An unsupported system or configuration
Why is a diagnostic function not displayed?
