Scanner Guide: How to Change the Language on a YOUCANIC Scanner
Do you need to change the language on your YOUCANIC scanner? This step-by-step guide will show you how to change the language on your YOUCANIC scanner.
The scanner used in this guide is YOUCANIC’s latest UCAN-II-C model. However, these steps will work for other YOUCANIC scanner models, such as the UCAN-II-B and UCAN-HD-A scanners.
DISCLAIMER: Changing the language on your scanner will not change the display language for fault code descriptions. To translate these descriptions, we recommend using a translator such as Google Translate.
