A modern remote vehicle diagnostic system

A traditional vehicle diagnostic system requires an onsite technician with access to the vehicle and diagnostic equipment. All components required for the diagnosis must be in the same location. FlexiHub eliminates this need by enabling technicians to offer a remote OBD diagnostic service.

Using FlexiHub, technicians can access remote, network-connected OBD tools as if they were physically connected to the devices. This facilitates faster and more efficient diagnosis and resolution of vehicle problems without requiring input from local experts.

FlexiHub operates as a communication server to connect technical experts with diagnostic information generated from a remotely located vehicle. This approach provides significant savings in time and money. Technicians do not need to travel to the vehicle to diagnose the problem for faster problem resolution.
