Today, we’ll walk you through a real-world example of how Launch SmartLink Service Platform was used to repair an Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS) issue on a Ferrari 458.
Scenario:
You’re working on a Ferrari 458 with the AFS warning light stuck on. You’ve tried everything—multiple checks and resets—but the light just won’t turn off. To make things more challenging, you don’t have official Ferrari diagnostic equipment. Sound familiar? Don’t worry—this is where Launch SmartLink Service Platform comes to the rescue.
How it works:
Simply plug Launch SmartLink C device into the car’s OBD port.
Once connected, a link code is generated and sent to a workshop or technician who has access to SmartLink B and professional diagnostic tools.
The technician accepts the task and starts a remote session through SmartLink platform.
The remote technician then takes control using dedicated diagnostic software.
They connect your customer’s car to Launch SmartLink B system using the latest Galileo device.
After selecting the Ferrari 458 model, they access the body computer, read the error codes, and then navigate to special functions like adaptations and coding.
Through a series of parameter adjustments in the special functions menu, the AFS fault is fully resolved. A quick test drive confirms it—the warning light is gone!
