Product details

The NT520 Pro scan tool has now been discontinued and superseded by the NT530.
The NT530 includes all the coverage of the NT520 Pro, but is based on new hardware that is able to support newer vehicles, and more streamlined software updates.
You can purchase an NT530 for Porsche here.

The Foxwell NT520 Pro is the successor to the hugely popular NT510 Pro, and is a low-cost handheld scan tool that offers comprehensive coverage for a single car manufacturer - ideal for specialist garages and car enthusiasts.

Designed for Porsche cars from around 1998 to 2015 (models with a 16-pin OBD-II type diagnostic socket), this scan tool allows the user to read and clear the Diagnostic Trouble Codes of all electronically controlled systems, and to reset oil and service lights, plus many more advanced features such as bi-directional component actuations and module coding - usually only seen in high-end professional tools such as the GT80.

This scan tool will also read and erase engine fault codes and show live engine data on EOBD compliant cars (nearly all 2001+ petrol cars and 2004+ diesel cars, from any car manufacturer).

Click the Register button and complete the registration page to create your Foxwell account.

When logged into FoxScanner, click the 'Register Products' icon.
On the 'S/N Registration' tab, put a tick in the box marked '001', then enter the product's serial number and password, and click Submit.
A confirmation box should be shown confirming successful registration.

Now close the FoxScanner software, connect your NT520 Pro to the PC using the supplied USB cable. When prompted on the tool, press the ENTER button to update - the tool will then display 'Updating' on the screen.
