SAE J2534 – The Standard for vehicle communication

SAE J2534 tools were originally intended for use by Independent Automotive Repair facilities for reflashing and updating the software on computers located inside newer automobiles. An unintended benefit of the J2534 standard has been the adaptation of that API as a standard way to communicate with automobiles. Drew Tech’s conformance and participation in SAE J2534, acceptance of the CarDAQ family by many OEMs as the first and industry standard J2534 tool, and the CarDAQ family’s most technologically advanced design explains why every automotive OEM in the world has purchased at least one CarDAQ family product.
