Replacement Launch DBScar VII VCI Connector for the Launch CRP919 MAX diagnostic scanner. Ideal for replacing a lost, damaged or faulty original VCI without purchasing another complete CRP919 MAX diagnostic system.
The DBScar VII acts as the communication interface between the CRP919 MAX tablet and the vehicle. It connects to the vehicle through the diagnostic connection and transfers vehicle data to the tablet for diagnostic operation.
Important: This listing is for the replacement DBScar VII VCI only. The CRP919 MAX diagnostic tablet and other accessories are not included.

This replacement unit is intended for CRP919 MAX owners whose original DBScar VII has been lost, damaged or developed a communication fault.

Compatibility
Compatible with the Launch CRP919 MAX diagnostic scanner.
The official CRP919 MAX package supplied by Launch includes a DBScar VII VCI Connector, confirming this interface as the VCI used by the CRP919 MAX.
Launch uses different VCI models across its diagnostic product range. Do not assume that a VCI from another Launch scanner is interchangeable simply because it has a similar appearance.
If purchasing as a replacement, confirm that your existing scanner uses the DBScar VII before ordering.

- Been lost or misplaced
- Been physically damaged
- Developed a wireless communication problem
- Developed a vehicle communication fault
- Stopped functioning and requires replacement
A replacement VCI may require pairing, activation, firmware updating or configuration with the existing Launch diagnostic tablet before use.
