The Launch X-431 V+ / HD III Update License is a digital software license that keeps your diagnostic scanner's software environment updated with new versions for 1 year. The license provides access to the latest software updates released by the manufacturer, including new vehicle coverage, customized diagnostic modules, and improvements to existing features. Since the license is tied to your existing device, the familiar workflow in the diagnostic software remains unchanged—only the content and vehicle coverage are expanded. This update period is designed for workshops that need to support both passenger vehicles and heavy-duty vehicles with current data.

When you order, you'll receive an update card with a 12-character activation code, which you enter manually into the corresponding Launch X-431 V+ or HD III software. After logging into the license or update menu, you enter the code, and new updates become available through the standard download function on your device. When the license period expires after 1 year, your device continues to work with the already-installed software, but access to new updates and additional vehicle coverage is blocked. Renewal is then required to continue receiving software updates.

KEY BENEFITS

Works with both the X-431 V+ and HD III, so one license can be used across a combined workshop for passenger vehicles and heavy equipment.
The manual activation using a 12-character code gives you complete control over when to redeem it, with no dependence on providing a serial number.
The 1-year license unlocks continuous access to new vehicle coverage and customized modules released during this period.

IMPORTANT NOTES

The activation code must be entered manually in the software; a single mistyped character can block activation and requires careful entry.
Once the 1-year license period expires, access to new updates stops, which means vehicles with recent model years may no longer be fully supported.
The license is valid exclusively for the X-431 V+ and HD III and cannot be used on other Launch diagnostic devices within the same product family.

Features and Functionality

Good to know: Make sure the diagnostic device is connected to a stable internet connection before entering the activation code. Write down the 12-character code carefully and check for easily confused characters such as 0 and the letter O to ensure successful activation on the first attempt.

Serial Number Information

  • VCI module or connector: The accompanying VCI interface typically has a label displaying the serial number of the module.
