Additional information keeps on trickling down regarding OTC Tools new Pegisys™ hand held onboard diagnostics futuristic scope, the OTC3825. Although OTC Tools is still pushing the Genisys™ OTC3696 which is capable of about 73% of the Pegisys, by no means is it the Pegisys OTC3825. Additions to the update capabilities include: Pegisys OTC3825 Domestic and Asian vehicle coverage subscription begins when the tool is registered and the first year is provided free! You no longer need to worry about missing the next update because it came out right after you bought the tool. This is huge! Beginning with your first download the software is fresh and the latest available. Unlike the OTC3696 Genisys. At the end of the subscription period a renewal kit is available from your OTC Tools distributor Mechanics Tool Supply. While most will see the tremendous value in having the latest vehicle coverage and diagnostic information, some may chose to not renew once their subscription ends. No problem, keep working with the software coverage you have at the time the subscription ends! Pegisys does not shutdown when the subscription ends like some competitive mechanics tools in this category.
Productivity Bundle Subscription. The value doesn’t end with 24/7 updates! Pegisys Productivity Bundle subscription package combines four software applications previously sold separately – Domestic, Asian, ABS/Airbag, and InfoTech. Included in the bundle is improved versions of the Quick DTC Scan and Automated System. Whether you want to automatically scan the vehicle’s many systems for DTC’s or run a complete Health Check, OTC Tools Pegisys OTC3825 delivers with a push of a button.
If your shop needs to upgrade or outfit its mechanics tools, Genisys, or Pegisys, look no further than Mechanics Tool Supply.

 OTC Tools has advised us that the OTC3696 Genisys™ is here to stay. A recent announcement touting the OTC3825 Pegisys™ the next best thing since sliced bread is true, yet representatives from OTC Tools state that they are unsure whether the Pegisys will be accepted with open arms. The OTC3696 Genisys has been the workhorse of onboard diagnostics in the mechanics tools market for many years now but has seen its identity shrinking away in large part due to private labeling under so many part numbers that it is hardly recognized as it was when it first came out of the oven. OTC Tools has starship expectations for the new Pegisys OTC3825 yet it appears that they can’t come to terms with the fact that they are their own worst enemy when it comes to ruining a great recipe. Below we list what the Genisys OTC3696 shows on its resume. Can it compete with the new OTC3825 Pegisys? I don’t think so. You Decide.

OTC Tools is traveling the county showing and telling all about the next generation in OBD-II diagnostics, the new PEGISYS™. Their campaign staff is as excited as we are about the industries first “at the fender“ on board diagnostics that will allow the mechanic to free himself from the restraints of cables, becoming more efficient in testing. What has not been answered is whether OTC Tools will make the same mistake as they made with the predecessor Genisys™ - loss of identity . The Genisys™ was private labeled for Tool companies and numerous Auto parts companies under so many different part numbers that the mechanic was confused. Each company’s personal part number had a wide variety of omissions or additions to satisfy their own tastes yet it left the mechanic with a different taste each time. It appears that the OTC3825 Pegisys™ has all the right ingredients for the perfect onboard diagnostic cake. Only time will tell if they strip the Pegisys™ of its identity, rendering it Worth Less.

For quite some time Genisys by OTC Tools has been the mechanics tool choice for onboard diagnostics scan tools. NEWS Flash! The Pegisys™ is coming to town. Genisys has been a very popular choice in auto scan tools for many years, but now Pegisys™ is positioning itself to be OTC’s future generation of automotive diagnostic scan tools. Genisys is still an excellent scan tool and will continue to be very popular due to the much lower cost. OTC Tools has the Nemisys, the Genisys and now the Pegisys™. This new sister named the Pegisys™ has AirBridge™ technology which allows wireless communication with the vehicle and the Internet. The freedom of the wireless capability allows the mechanic to move around the vehicle when performing diagnostic tests. Mechanics scan tools normally have an interface cable that keeps the mechanic in the seat or requires the cable to be draped through the door or window to reach the engine compartment.
Pegisys™ comes complete with a touch screen. In addition to being able to use the scroll to change frames when using the scan tool, the Pegisys™ allows the user to make selections right on the touch screen. With the visuals and a screen like video games, what better way for a mechanic to find the application he wants than to just touch the image on the screen!
OTC 3825 equipped with a scope. Sometimes when testing a particular component on a car, a scope is needed to see the wave patterns to help detect momentary glitches.
Updates through the Internet. The Pegisys™ comes with a one year subscription that starts when the tool is registered for warranty on the Pegisys™ website. It comes with USA Domestic and Asian software and even has OBD I and OBD II cables included. Optional software enables the Pegisys™ to be used on European vehicles and Heavy duty truck applications.
OTC Tools also produces OE specific diagnostic scan tools like the Tech 2 Scan tool for Chevrolet. While the Tech 2 has programming/flashing capability it is limited to GM. The key to the Pegisys™ scan tool is that it has the capability to access many different manufacturers systems. The Pegisys™ provides over 27 years of vehicle coverage 1980-3007 for 44 different vehicle makes from over 25 manufacturers.
Bottom Line? Pegisys™ unleashes your potential to work smarter and faster at the fender, that’s good for the mechanic and good for the shop. Coming soon to mechanics tool supply.
