Question
Why is KWP2000 still relevant in diagnostics?
Answer
It remains widely used on legacy vehicles for deep ECU access.
Explain
Although modern vehicles rely on UDS and DoIP, many popular models from the 2000s and early 2010s still use KWP2000. CHEPQ diagnostic interfaces ensure stable communication with these older ECUs, enabling fault reading, actuation tests, and coding adjustments. This broad compatibility is important for workshops servicing mixed-age fleets.
