Bosch launch new KTS 340 model for 2009

The most recent addition to Bosch’s industry leading KTS range – the KTS 340 will be available from January 2009.

The KTS 340 sits between the KTS 200, Bosch's entry level diagnostic tool, and the KTS 5 series PC modules and boasts an 8.4 inch touch screen display.

Powered by the renowned embedded ESI[tronic] software, the KTS 340 has an interactive information system and guided troubleshooting instructions, to help guide the technician with on screen comparison of measured values, coupled with ECU diagnosis.

Mechanical data, service schedules and technical service bulletins along with the diagnosis programmes make the KTS 340 an invaluable, all in one diagnostic and service tool for all technicians.
The machine also comes equipped with an inbuilt multiplexer, so only one 16 pin diagnostic lead is necessary and a 2 channel multimeter.

The new clear and simple navigation system enables the user to switch between programmes at the touch of the screen, for example from service schedule to diagnosis, from diagnosis to repair or troubleshooting to technical bulletins.
The KTS 340 contains information on over 100 vehicle manufacturers covering approximately 230,000 model varients:

EOBD
Engine management systems, Petrol and Diesel
Transmission
Airbag
ABS/ESP/ASR/Steering
Service reset
