Overview
The ANCEL JP700 is a specialist JOBD scanner developed specifically for Japanese vehicle diagnostics. While many universal scanners focus primarily on European and American vehicles, the JP700 is designed to provide enhanced support for Japanese manufacturers, making it an excellent diagnostic tool for Japanese cars used in the UK market.
Unlike a generic code reader, this JOBD scanner supports Japanese diagnostic protocols and manufacturer-specific systems found across a wide range of vehicles. Whether you own a Toyota, Lexus, Nissan, Infiniti, Honda, Acura, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Suzuki, Subaru, Daihatsu, Isuzu, Hino or Mitsuoka, the JP700 is designed to provide deeper vehicle access and more accurate diagnostics than many standard OBD scanners.
The JP700 functions as both a dedicated JOBD scan tool and a complete OBD2 scanner, allowing users to diagnose engine faults, monitor live data, retrieve fault codes and perform emissions-related diagnostics. For owners of Japanese vehicles, this makes it a practical solution for diagnosing warning lights and identifying vehicle faults before costly repairs are carried out.
One of the key advantages of the ANCEL JP700 is its focus on Japanese vehicle coverage. While many scanners claim worldwide compatibility, the JP700 is built around the requirements of Japanese manufacturers and the diagnostic systems commonly used across brands such as Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Mazda and Mitsubishi. This makes it a particularly useful diagnostic tool for Japanese cars found throughout the UK.
Whether you are maintaining a Toyota family vehicle, diagnosing faults on a Nissan SUV, servicing a Honda hybrid or working on a Lexus executive car, this JOBD scanner provides an affordable and user-friendly diagnostic solution for Japanese vehicle owners and independent garages alike.
If you require diagnostics for vehicles from multiple manufacturers rather than Japanese vehicles alone, explore our range of Full System Car Diagnostic Tools, offering wider vehicle coverage and advanced maintenance functions.

Functions
Functions / Capabilities
JOBD Scanner Engine Diagnostics
The ANCEL JP700 provides comprehensive engine diagnostics for supported Japanese vehicles. Users can access the engine control module (ECM) to identify faults affecting performance, fuel economy and emissions.
Functions include:
- Read manufacturer-specific fault codes
- Read generic OBD2 fault codes
- Clear fault codes after repairs
- View fault code descriptions
- Check pending fault codes
- View permanent fault codes (where supported)
This allows users to diagnose engine warning lights without visiting a dealership.
Live Data Monitoring
This JOBD Scanner allows users to view real-time vehicle data directly from the engine control module.
Available data may include:
- Engine RPM
- Coolant temperature
- Intake air temperature
- Air flow sensor readings
- Fuel trim values
- Oxygen sensor voltages
- Throttle position
- Battery voltage
- Vehicle speed
Live data is particularly useful when diagnosing intermittent faults that may not trigger a warning light immediately.
Freeze Frame Analysis
When a fault code is stored, the vehicle records a snapshot of operating conditions at the time the fault occurred.
The JP700 can display:
- Engine speed
- Vehicle speed
- Engine load
- Fuel system status
- Temperature readings
This helps identify exactly when and why a fault occurred.
I/M Readiness Testing
The JP700 can check emissions monitor status before an MOT test.
Monitor checks include:
- Catalyst monitor
- Oxygen sensor monitor
- Evaporative system monitor
- EGR monitor
- Misfire monitor
This helps users avoid MOT failures caused by incomplete readiness monitors.
Vehicle Information Retrieval
The scanner can retrieve vehicle information from supported control modules including:
- VIN number
- Calibration identification
- ECU information
- Software version details
Useful when confirming vehicle specifications or ordering replacement parts.
