ECU and TCU programming via OBD, boot and bench. Welcome third dimension.

Thanks to thirty years of experience and nearly three years of development, KESS3 is the most advanced engineering achievement ever conceived in the Chiptuning industry. Alientech has made a significant breakthrough to create something unique and extraordinary, which has no equal in the market, in terms of functions, convenience, and versatility. KESS3 has been developed to provide everyone, from the young engine enthusiast to the most specialized mechatronic technicians with a quick and simple interface to any engine control unit and automatic gearbox on the market. Sensational performance, high operational flexibility and ease of use allow you to interface with engines and gearbox control units with a single tool.

New Feature - DynoDrive

DynoDrive is an advanced feature, exclusive to Alientech Suite and KESS3, which allows for calculating and verifying performance while driving a vehicle.

Through the OBD diagnostic port and data acquisition from the integrated GPS module, DynoDrive provides power and torque values of a car that can be exported and compared endlessly on your reserved area.

The DynoDrive application allows you to revolutionize vehicle testing on the road, without additional costs for dedicated equipment. The experience of testing a car transforms into a unique opportunity to verify the vehicle’s performance and evaluate the effectiveness of any modifications.

Gain a valuable ally to improve your work and ensure customers a high-quality service, meeting their expectations. With DynoDrive, every road test will provide real and reliable values that represent a tangible parameter to certify your work with cutting-edge technology and ease of system use.

Diagnostic Trouble Code

The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) function allows viewing and resetting engine fault codes from car and motorcycle ECUs, introducing diagnostic capabilities, and improving operational efficiency for our customers.

Here below the main benefits:

• Error Code Detection and Interpretation: it helps you to quickly identify vehicle problems without the need for additional devices. This feature centralizes the diagnostic process, reducing the time needed to detect faults and increasing work efficiency. You can thus offer a faster and more accurate service to your customers.

• Error Code Reset: it clears error codes from the ECU memory after repairs, ensuring that the vehicle is working properly. This is crucial to ensure that repairs have been performed correctly and that the vehicle no longer shows signs of failure, improving customer satisfaction and reducing returns for further action.

• Pre-Tuning and Post-Tuning Diagnostics: it allows you to evaluate the feasibility of changes before tuning, by displaying any existing errors that could affect the tuning process. After tuning, it checks for new errors to ensure that modifications have not introduced problems. This process ensures that the vehicle is in perfect condition before and after each tuning, minimizing the risks of damage and malfunctions.

• Special Features: it includes specific options for certain vehicle models, such as steering alignment and differential lock/unlock. Supported models are visible within the Alientech Suite software, providing you with an extended range of diagnostics and customization capabilities.

The DTC feature will be available only for customers with an active subscription on their KESS3 Master or Slave tool.

KESS3 combines 3 operating modes - All in One Tool.

OBD, Bench and Boot Mode.

OBD Mode - With the OBD mode, you can easily access all the ECU data through the diagnostic socket.

Bench Mode - A simple interface to the connector and you have complete access to the data of your ECU.

Boot Mode - This mode allows you to access all system data areas. Read, Write and Clone.

Renewed architecture

30 years of experience and passion take shape.

Since 1991 Alientech has been designing and developing tools for ECU remapping. Driven by the passion for excellence, Alientech has incorporated all their design experience in this new tool.

Every aspect of KESS3 is carefully designed to achieve performance, operational flexibility, and ease of use.

Its renewed architecture exploits the full potential of each component.

New microprocessor, latest generation I/O interfaces, new built-in sensors and high-performance EEPROM and FLASH memories are the main features of KESS3.

THE CPU
The most powerful microprocessor on the market. 7 times more powerful than the previous generation. Pure power that can execute your commands reliably, faster and more efficiently.

Welcome On Board

KESS3 automatically and instantly recognizes the right communication line, to work faster, using only an OBD cable. Ethernet, FlexRay, CAN Bus, K-Line, L-line, J1850, J1708.

All the essential lines to start any operation inside the vehicle in total safety.

PROJECTED TOWARDS THE FUTURE.

GPS, Accelerometer, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi. All embedded in one platform.

The combination of these features and the constant technological developments that distinguish us will allow us to develop many new functions in the future.

PERFORMANCE

The renewed USB Full speed chip allows an up to 10x increase in the performance of importing and exporting files to and from the KESS3.

But not only that, Alientech added a new web infrastructure to the new KESS3.

The result being, an Alientech cloud with improved speed and performance.

Design

Fiberglass shell. Resilience and Durability for your workshop

KESS3 case design is completely new. Alientech has provided added value by researching and incorporating the best usable materials. Designed to offer you versatile and rugged mobility, thanks to the durability of the materials.

KESS3 is built around a fiberglass shell which gives it lightness and flexibility. An ergonomic shell, resistant to shocks and vibrations. An exceptionally strong tool that can be taken anywhere.

CASE CONTENTS:

USB cable, needed to interface with the KESS3 instrument through the PC.

The new generation OBD cable that integrates all the communication lines used by the various car manufacturers; this cable, therefore, replaces various wirings that were used by KESSv2; more specifically, it is also able to communicate with Honda, Volvo, Lotus and Toyota.

1400SWALIM power supply, capable of providing sufficient current and voltage to communicate with the electronic control units, in a stable and safe way.

144300TALI cable, to power the instrument using a bench power supply (the power supply, on the other hand, is sold separately).

144300KBNC cable to communicate with the control units directly on the bench.

144300KTER pack which contains all the cables useful for connection in BENCH or BOOT mode. (extender).

144300T104 rainbow cable IDC 26-10 consisting of 10 wires, used to connect directly to the electronic board of the control unit.

144300T105 rainbow cable IDC 26-16 composed of 16 wires, used to connect directly to the electronic board of the control unit.
