With KESS3, read and write Phoenix L33M ECUs via OBD on the latest Claas and John Deere tractors produced from 2025 onwards.<\/p>

This new development for the agricultural sector lets you work directly on the ECU through the vehicle\u2019s diagnostic port, with no physical intervention on the control unit. A solution designed to make work fast and practical even when the tractor is in the field, minimizing machine downtime. <\/p>

The real benefits for the workshop:<\/p>

  • Read and write the ECU through the diagnostic port<\/li>
  • Faster operations, even directly in the field<\/li>
  • Support for Claas and John Deere tractors from 2025 onwards<\/li>
  • Dedicated coverage for PowerTech 6.8L engines<\/li><\/ul>

    Expand your workshop services with support for the latest-generation Claas and John Deere tractors and work with maximum speed on applications widely used in the agricultural sector.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
