Hunter Engineering’s ADASLink calibrations and diagnostic scan tool now includes Remote Diagnostics Service, powered by Bosch, as shared in a recent press release.

The new capability provides on-demand access to OEM software, scan, calibration assistance, repair validation, fault code reviews, expert coding support, documentation, and more for independent repair shops, collision repair centers, glass replacement shops, and MSOs.

The collaboration enables ADASLink to connect directly with Bosch diagnostic experts through an integrated remote support platform. With ADASLink plugged into the vehicle, the technician opens the RDS menu, selects from pre-scan, post-scan, steering system reset and ADAS support options, and then describes the assistance they require. RDS will auto-ID the VIN and open a live chat with a Bosch diagnostic expert.

The Bosch diagnostic expert can then remotely perform scans and steering system resets, provide ADAS target setup specifications, or remotely complete calibrations as needed. When the work is completed, the system generates OE-level documentation, calibration confirmation, and next-step recommendations.

"Today's vehicles are increasingly sophisticated with advanced electronic systems and manufacturer-specific service procedures that require specialized tools, information and expertise to diagnose and service," said Todd Hertzler, regional president, Bosch Mobility Aftermarket North America. “Bosch Remote Diagnostics Service gives shops a direct connection to Bosch diagnostic expertise and OEM software through the tools they already use.”
