The Autodiagger AD100+ hand tester is an innovative and competitive diagnostic tool specifically developed for the needs of modern workshops. Our expertise lies in testing alternators, starter motors, and charging systems, and we combine this knowledge with a user-friendly yet highly functional device. The goal of the AD100+ is to make complex alternator and starter motor testing accessible to everyone at an affordable price, while providing relevant and accurate test results.
As experienced refurbishers ourselves, we use our tools day in and day out, so we constantly strive for development and the integration of the latest technologies. The AD100+ device is excellently suited for the quick and efficient testing of vehicle charging systems.
The Autodiagger AD100+ is not just a simple measuring instrument; it is an intelligent diagnostic solution capable of identifying communication protocols and alternator specifications.
Protocol Identification: The device automatically recognizes the communication protocol used by the alternator, the manufacturer, as well as the alternator identifier (ID) or class.
DFM Support: Capable of measuring the current draw of lamp-controlled alternators (DFM – Current Output Measurement).
Voltage Regulation: The user can flexibly modify the test voltage from 12 Volts up to 16 Volts, which is ideal for simulating various battery and charging systems.
Error Code Indication: Messages indicating mechanical, electrical, and temperature errors can be displayed on the screen, aiding in quick fault finding.
User-Friendly Operation: The device operation is intuitive, minimizing learning time while ensuring maximum test coverage.
The AD100+ provides broad compatibility with the most common communication standards, including 12V and 24V systems.
The AD100+ is capable of decoding and testing the following main protocols:
| Protocol Code | Description / Manufacturer | Additional Information |
|---|---|---|
| COM | Communication protocols | LIN1, LIN2, BSS (including BSS2, BSS3) |
| SIG | Signal based communication | Ford, Mazda, Land Rover |
| FR | Current draw measurement | Related to SIG and RLO protocols |
| PD | Older types | Multiple Mazda models |
| RLO | Denso types | For Toyota and other vehicles, with FR measurement |
| L-RVC | Communication | For General Motors systems, with FR measurement |
| C | Communication | For Denso and Mitsubishi alternators, with FR measurement |
| DFM | Current output measurement | For lamp-controlled alternators |
The device deeply supports major OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) systems and is capable of interpreting the internal status signals of the alternators:
Voltage Range: Support for 12V / 24V systems (including 24V LIN GRC systems).
Fault Reporting Interpretation: Able to detect and display faults in the following categories:
Mechanical faults
Electrical faults
Thermal (temperature) faults
Specific Protocol Support:
SIG: Ford, Mazda, Land Rover
PD: Multiple Mazda models
L-RVC: General Motors
C: Denso, Mitsubishi
DFM: Current output measurement
The AD100+ capability is particularly outstanding in testing Valeo generators used for modern Start/Stop systems. The device also handles the following specific types:
IST50C012
IST60C019
IST60C021
IST60C029
IST60C032
IST60C048
IST60C049
IST60C018
IST60C024 (two mentions)
IST60C020
IST60C032 (repetition)
IST60C025
IST60C030
IST60C033
IST60C034
This wide-ranging support ensures that workshops can reliably diagnose the alternators of vehicles equipped with the latest hybrid and start/stop technology.
The Autodiagger AD100+ handheld tester is an ideal choice:
Generator Rebuilders: Protocols and DFM measurement allow checking the quality of the rebuilt units before installation.
Automotive Services: Fast and accurate fault diagnosis to identify charging system problems.
Parts Dealers: Compatibility check and testing to meet customer requirements.
The AD100+ belongs to the testing equipment category, is a product of the Autodiagger brand, and can be classified under the diagnostic equipment subcategory. A detailed user guide (Manual) is also available for the device for comprehensive support.
