Launch X431 PROS V 5.0 (2026) – Professional Automotive Diagnostic Scanner

The Launch X431 PROS V 5.0 is a professional automotive diagnostic scanner designed for workshops, mechanics, auto electricians, and advanced automotive technicians. It combines full-system diagnostics, bi-directional Active Tests, 37+ service functions, AutoVIN, CAN FD, DoIP, FCA AutoAuth, and advanced coding and matching capabilities in a compact 8-inch diagnostic platform.

Yes. The PROS V 5.0 provides full-system diagnostics on supported vehicles. It can access electronic systems such as Engine, Transmission, ABS, SRS/Airbag, BCM, BMS, TPMS, SAS, Fuel System, Lighting, A/C, and many other available electronic control modules.

On supported vehicles, the scanner can read and clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), retrieve ECU information, display and record live data, perform Active Tests, execute special functions, and carry out coding, matching, and adaptation procedures.

Yes. The PROS V 5.0 provides bi-directional control, also known as Active Tests. This allows technicians to send commands directly to supported vehicle ECUs and actuators to verify whether individual components are operating correctly.

Available Active Tests vary by vehicle and can include radiator fan activation, throttle control, injector tests, windows, mirrors, interior and exterior lights, horn, door locks, pumps, solenoids, and other electronically controlled components.

Yes. The PROS V 5.0 provides ECU Coding and related coding/matching functions on compatible vehicles. Depending on the manufacturer, these functions can be used for replacement module matching, adaptive data configuration, personalization, and supported vehicle configuration changes.

On supported vehicles, coding and personalization functions can be used to configure certain factory-supported vehicle features. Available options depend entirely on the vehicle manufacturer, model, year, ECU, and software version.

The PROS V 5.0 provides 37+ special service and maintenance functions. The exact number and availability of functions vary according to the vehicle manufacturer, model, year, ECU, and installed software.

Depending on vehicle compatibility, available functions can include Oil Reset, Throttle Matching, SAS Reset, EPB/Brake Pad Reset, TPMS Reset, ABS Bleeding, BMS/Battery Matching, Gear Learning, Injector Coding, DPF Regeneration, IMMO-related functions, and many other maintenance, adaptation, and relearn procedures.

Yes. The PROS V 5.0 uses the upgraded DBScar VII diagnostic connector and supports CAN FD communication for compatible newer vehicles. This expands its diagnostic capability for modern vehicle electronic architectures.

Yes. The PROS V 5.0 supports DoIP (Diagnostics over Internet Protocol) through its upgraded diagnostic interface. DoIP is an Ethernet-based diagnostic communication technology used by many newer vehicles for faster communication between the diagnostic tool and vehicle ECUs.

The DBScar VII is the Vehicle Communication Interface supplied with the PROS V 5.0. It communicates with the diagnostic tablet and supports modern vehicle communication technologies including CAN FD and DoIP. It also features indicator lights that make connection and communication status easier to monitor.

Yes. The PROS V 5.0 supports AutoAuth access for compatible FCA vehicles equipped with a Secure Gateway Module (SGW). An appropriate AutoAuth account, authorization, and any applicable fees or subscriptions may be required separately.

Yes. VAG Guided Functions are available for supported Volkswagen Group vehicles. These can guide technicians step by step through selected diagnostic and service procedures. According to the product information, an additional license may be required for this functionality.

Yes. The PROS V 5.0 supports intelligent VIN identification and AutoVIN scanning on compatible vehicles. This allows the scanner to automatically identify vehicle information and quickly enter the appropriate diagnostic software.

Yes. The scanner supports real-time live data with graphical analysis. It can display multiple sensor data streams to help technicians compare ECU parameters and identify abnormal values more efficiently during troubleshooting.

Yes. The PROS V 5.0 can be expanded with the optional Launch X-PROG3 for additional immobilizer and key programming functions on supported vehicles. Exact IMMO capabilities depend on the vehicle, software, and accessories being used.

Yes. The PROS V 5.0 supports a wide range of optional Launch accessories. Depending on the application, it can be expanded with equipment such as X-PROG3, TSGUN, BST360 Battery Tester, VSP600 Videoscope, Launch ADAS equipment, Key Programmer, and SmartLink C HD Lite Heavy Duty module. Optional accessories and required software are sold separately unless specifically included in the package.

The PROS V 5.0 features an 8-inch 1280 × 800 touchscreen, Android 10 operating system, 2.0 GHz quad-core processor, 4 GB RAM, 64 GB storage, 8 MP rear camera, 6300 mAh battery, and dual-band 2.4 GHz/5 GHz Wi-Fi. It also includes USB Type-A and Type-C connectivity.

The Launch X431 PROS V 5.0 combines full-system diagnostics, bi-directional Active Tests, 37+ service functions, ECU Coding, AutoVIN, CAN FD, DoIP, FCA AutoAuth, VAG Guided Functions, graphical live data, and extensive accessory expansion options in one professional 8-inch platform. With DBScar VII, 4 GB + 64 GB memory, a 6300 mAh battery, and two years of free software updates, it is a versatile diagnostic solution for professional workshops working on a wide range of modern vehicles.
