Disclaimer
Smart Gear Diagnostics is a diagnostic aid for people who repair vehicles. It reads data from a vehicle through an adapter you supply, and it can produce an AI summary of that read.
It is not a repair. It is not a safety inspection. It is not a substitute for the vehicle manufacturer's service information, wiring diagrams, or hands-on testing. You decide what the vehicle needs and whether it is safe to drive or to work on.
What a read means. The service reports what came back on that connection. It can miss a module, a code list, or a sensor. "No codes" means none were returned on that read. It does not mean the vehicle has no fault. Where a module or code list was not read, the screen says so. Treat that as unknown, not as clear.
AI summaries. The written diagnosis is generated text. It can be wrong, incomplete, or out of date. Check every finding against service information and a physical test before you repair, road-test, or tell a customer the vehicle is safe.
Restraint systems. If a code concerns an airbag, seat belt, pretensioner, clock spring, or crash sensor, have that system diagnosed and repaired by a technician qualified for restraint systems. Until then, that part may not work as designed in a crash.
Read-only. The service requests diagnostic data. It does not clear fault codes. It does not write calibrations or control commands to the vehicle. It does not fix the vehicle.
Your adapter. We do not sell or ship adapters. You buy the adapter elsewhere and you connect it. A faulty, clone, or unsuitable adapter can return bad data and can disturb a vehicle network. Any adapter we name on the site is a suggestion. It is not a warranty of that product and not a promise it is suitable for every vehicle.
Where it runs. The service works in desktop Chrome or Edge on a computer. It is not an iPhone, iPad, or Android app.
No warranty. To the extent the law allows, the service is provided "as is" and "as available". We do not warrant that a read or an AI summary is accurate, complete, current, or fit for a particular repair, or that the service will be uninterrupted.
Limit of liability. To the extent the law allows, 1596705 B.C. Ltd. is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss, including a missed or wrong diagnosis, a repair you choose, shop downtime, loss of business, or damage said to arise from use of the service or of an adapter. If the law does not allow a limit, that limit applies only as far as the law allows. Nothing in these pages limits liability that cannot legally be limited.
