Xhorse Dolphin XP-005 “Error 56” “error code 6” Solutions

 Question:

Xhorse Dolphin XP005 prompts “Error: 56” and “error code: 6”. Have shot and sent the video of electrical conductivity measurement, please check.

Solutions:
Check the steps as the prompts. (height level adjustment, clamp calibration etc.)
Do the electrical conductivity measurement.
If the cutter and the probe don’t conduct, disassemble the machine and test abnormal conductivity of the cutter/probe.

How to do electrical conductivity measurement?

Go to Xhorse app.
Device information>>Electrical Conductivity Measurement
1)Probe and clamp
2)Cutter and clamp

Use a blank key or a conductor to short-circuit the clamp and the probe/cutter as the prompt.

How to test abnormal conductivity of the cutter/probe?

Step 1
Unscrew the back of Dolphin XP-005, and watch the cables inside.

Step 2
Remove the back.
Unscrew the cable and the two Phillips screws.

Turn to the front side.
Unscrew the little rubber cover, and behind are screwed.
Then unscrew the long metal by a hexagon bar wrench.

Step 3
Use a slotted screwdriver to turn the screw so that the Z-bearing and the outer cover are in the same horizontal plane.

Take down the outer cover of the Z-bearing after the adjustment.
Unscrew the screws beside the probe.

Care the wire inside when removing the base.

Step 4
When the above steps are complete, now we can test whether the cutter’s wire and the probe’s wire are circuited or short-circuited.
The wires should be tested together with wires in the power board.
Unplug and plug the wire in the power board again before we test if the conductivity is normal.

Step 5
This step is to test the cutter’s conductivity.
Unscrew the three screws on the Z-bearing,

and fasten the two screws until we get a gap to take down the Z-bearing.

Press the cutter’s hole and push the bearing up.
Check if the white paper is broken.

If so, replace it.
If not, check if there are some iron filings inside the bearing hole.

In this article, there are 5 points of Launch X431 Frequently Asked Questions and Solutions, they are about software upgrade, factory resetting and reinstall app, clear app cache, application’s cache and data clearance, deleting software, Bluetooth connector’s firmware recovery.

1. Software Upgrade Instructions:

Every time there is a new version of a software update, mostly it means new features or new vehicles available, or software functionality problems have been solved with modifications. So, in the daily use of software, it’s better to keep all software updated.

Due to lack of memory in some tablets, resulting in many customers only update the diagnose software, but not update other common software, such as “APP application program”, “DiagBaseService App”, “DPU Link Manager Services”, “Firmware upgrade program”, “ECU AID”, and “Autosearch”, which may generate unsynchronized conflict and lead to abnormal diagnosis problems.

Failure to synchronize software upgrades may result in the following problems:

Some models or systems cannot diagnose and enter.

The software will break down when testing the car.

Some new Chinese car model cannot do oil reset.

Fault codes appear code not defined.

No channel list display for VW and Audi.

No long code display for VW and Audi.

It may lead to the failure of special functions such as matching and resetting

The following pictures within APP, must be update to latest version, if there is a new version available, click “update” in “software update” module will automatically update them to the latest version, please don’t stop those software update process.
