When you change the oil, the car’s ECU needs to be told that the oil is new, so it stops reminding you to change it. When you replace or service brake pads, the VD500 resets the warning light on the dashboard. It tells the car's ECU that the brake pads are new or have been checked, so the warning light disappears. If the throttle is adjusted or replaced, this reset helps the car's ECU learn about new settings for the throttle (the part that controls how much air and fuel the engine takes in). Transmission System for VAG Vehicles Diagnosis ABS for VAG Vehicles Diagnosis TPMS for VAG Vehicles Diagnosis SRS(Airbag) for VAG Vehicles Diagnosis If you notice the transmission slip, shifting coarse mesh, delay, oil or transmission warning, your car may need maintenance.You can use VD500 diagnosis and find out the problem areas for repair. When you see the ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) light is on, you know it's serious. VD500 can help you determine what happened: low brake fluid, blow out the fuse, or abnormal wheel sensor signal. If the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) lights up, it means your tire is faulty. The VD500 can read the code on the TPMS system to identify possible problems and clean them up after fix it up. When the SRS lights up, means that the airbag control unit system appear problem, airbags will not deploy when an accident. You can use the VD500 to check SRS systems for faults and repairs. Review: Great tool to read codes and retract electric parking brakes - The Ancel OBD 500 scanner was easy to use. I used to retract the rear electric parking brakes on my 2016 VW Tiguan in order to replace the brakes pads. All went well, I recommend it, and the price is reasonable. JV Review: Worked perfectly and saved me a ton of cash! - I bought this specifically to release the electric parking brake on a 2023 Audi Q3 so I could do the brake pad s and rotor service. This worked great both for releasing and resetting it after the job was done. This scanner, brake pads and rotors (all Bosch) were under $300.00. Audi wanted $1300.00 to do accomplish the same service. It’s easy to do, Do it yourself and save your money! ## Features - 【Designed for Volkswagen(VAG) Cars Diagnostics】The VD500 OBD2 scanner is specifically designed to diagnose Volkswagen Group (Fits for VW/Audi/Skoda/ SEAT) 12-volt 16-pin vehicles, but can also be used with other 12-volt (non-Volkswagen) and light trucks (non-electric) vehicles manufactured in 1996 or later that are OBD II -compliant with standard 16-pin OBD II protocols (J1850 VPM, J1850PWM, ISO9141, KWP 2000 and CAN).

I used to retract the rear electric parking brakes on my 2016 VW Tiguan in order to replace the brakes pads. All went well, I recommend it, and the price is reasonable. JV ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked perfectly and saved me a ton of cash! *by S***G on April 13, 2026* I bought this specifically to release the electric parking brake on a 2023 Audi Q3 so I could do the brake pad s and rotor service. This worked great both for releasing and resetting it after the job was done. This scanner, brake pads and rotors (all Bosch) were under $300.00. Audi wanted $1300.00 to do accomplish the same service. It’s easy to do, Do it yourself and save your money! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to use! *by K***W on August 5, 2024* I purchased this device mainly for replacing my brake pads on my VW-Arteon,( front & rear ), and as many other newer models, my car has a electric parking brake which I needed to retract with a device like this. When I got the device delivered I was surprised from the quality and the feeling when I pulled it out of the box, given that this brand wasn’t so famous to me, but could be something famous in Europe, I don’t know 🤷. It’s made in China, though as most of the things nowadays, but so far is of a good quality, and worked perfectly for me! I was able to retract the electric parking brake ( the metal axle inside the pistons ), so later when you need to press the pistons and to install the new brake pads, nothing stays on your way and it was easy and like you don’t have electric parking brake to deal with it. Now something important to remember when you use the device for the first time? So when you use the device for the first time , make sure and put the car in contact first ( the ignition ON ), then plug it in while the ignition is still on “ON” position without starting the engine. I did it in reverse, I plugged in the device first, then I pressed the ignition button on, and the device didn’t show and didn’t want to do anything, and I was scared and thought that the device it doesn’t work on my car, so again, ignition ON fits, then plug in the device, and it will work perfectly. I highly recommend the product, especially at the discounted price that I got it in Amazon! ## Frequently Bought Together - Ancel VD500 OBD2 Scanner Diagnostic Tool for Volkswagen VW Audi Skoda Seat Diagnosis Check Engine Light EPB ABS SRS Code Reader Oil Throttle Position Adaption Brake Pad Reset - ANCEL Protective Case Storage Bag for OBD2 Scanner Code Reader Diagnostic Scan Tool Battery Tester --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/65942884-ancel-vd500-obd2-scanner-diagnostic-tool-for-volkswagen-vw-audi](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/65942884-ancel-vd500-obd2-scanner-diagnostic-tool-for-volkswagen-vw-audi) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
