The modern car is full of advanced electronics, making reliable battery charging systems essential for car dealerships and bodyshops. As a car mechanic, you want to ensure that every diagnostic and programming session runs smoothly. The solution? The battery support charger from Jifeline Remote Diagnostics.
Did you know that a low battery voltage significantly reduces the chances of successful remote diagnostics?
The dangers of low battery voltage during programming
Take this telling example of a CUPRA LEON - (KL1, KU1) e-HYBRID 180KW DGEA (2020 - ...). This vehicle came in for a major service that required the new remote radar to be enabled and coded. The problem? The battery voltage was only 6.2 volts. Only a starter booster was available in the workshop.
Just a starting booster is not enough
A starting booster could not boost the on-board voltage enough to ensure a flawless remote diagnostics session. The mechanic still tried to solve the problem by running the engine, but this proved ineffective. In fact, running the engine can interfere with the successful execution of the controller coding, which was the case in this instance.
Loss of precious time
The result was a huge waste of valuable time, not only for the mechanic, but also for the receiver and the Remote Diagnostics provider. The low battery voltage led to:
- Disrupted communication: The connection to the vehicle was unreliable, making the remote session much longer than necessary.
- Starting problems: The vehicle failed to start after the session, leading to dissatisfied customers.
- Loss of important data: Without a stable voltage, crucial settings were lost, resulting in additional costs for repair.
This highlights how crucial a stable power supply is for the success of modern diagnostic and programming work.
The advantages of a professional support loader
Invest in a professional battery support charger (BSU) and enjoy the benefits:
- Stable Voltage: Keeps the battery at a constant, optimum level while working on the vehicle. This prevents problems such as those experienced with the CUPRA LEON.
- Extended Lifetime: Reduce the risk of deep discharges and sulphation, which significantly prolongs battery life.
- Time saving: Avoid starting problems and spend your time more efficiently, allowing you to concentrate on other work in the workshop.
