OTC To Host Free Scan Tool Educational Webinar

Webinar will educate techs on making the correct purchase, and one viewer will win an OTC Encore diagnostic system valued at more than $1,800.

OWATONNA, Minn. – With a variety of scan tools on the market in a wide range of prices, choosing the right tool can help enhance a technician’s productivity and save money. Choosing the wrong tool, however, can be a costly investment that a tech may never fully realize.

To help make the right purchase, OTC will host a free webinar for North America  at 7 p.m. EST on  Thursday, Feb. 27 to answer questions and help technicians decide what level of scan tool is best for them. OTC Product Manager Ed Lipscomb will moderate a panel featuring Technical Support Specialists Jim Wilson and Doc Watson, who will field audience questions and walk through some of the most common concerns prior to diagnostics purchases, such as:

* When to purchase an OEM scan tool
* Quickly retrieving information needed to fix a car
* When to add J2534 reprogramming to a diagnostic toolbox

Viewers will be walked through a full range of diagnostics options, from code readers to fully integrated scan tools, helping better prepare them for future scan tool purchases.

One viewer will win an OTC Encore diagnostic system valued at more than $1,800.
