Choose the right path

Tell us what has happened before sending the tool back.

Different issues need different handling. Contacting us first often avoids an unnecessary return and lets us give you the correct next step.

FAULT

The tool is not working correctly

Contact support with the order number, tool model and a clear description of the problem. Photos, videos and any on-screen message can help us assess it.

WRONG TOOL

You ordered the wrong model

Keep the tool, packaging and accessories unused and in their original condition. We can help identify a more suitable model before arranging the return or exchange.

12-month warranty

How warranty support works.

The warranty applies from the original purchase date and covers genuine products purchased through iCarsoft New Zealand that develop a product fault during normal use.

Covered

Product faults

We assess faults involving the tool, supplied hardware or normal operation during the warranty period.

First check

Software and setup

For updateable tools, we may first ask you to update the software or firmware and complete a few practical checks.

Not covered

User-caused damage

The warranty does not cover damage caused by misuse, impact, liquid ingress, incorrect use or unauthorised opening or modification.

Resolution

Assessed case by case

After assessment, we will confirm the appropriate resolution. This may include further support, repair, replacement or refund depending on the circumstances.

Warranty process

From first contact to resolution.

Most warranty enquiries begin with troubleshooting. A physical return is only arranged when it is needed.

01

Contact us

Send the order details, tool model and a description of the issue.

02

Complete checks

We may ask you to update the tool, confirm settings or provide photos and video.

03

Return if required

If inspection is needed, we will approve the return and send shipping instructions.

04

Assessment

Once received, the tool is checked and we confirm the appropriate next step.

30 Day return window

You have 30 days after receiving an eligible item to request a return.

Returns

Return eligibility.

To be eligible, the product must be returned in the same condition in which it was received. For a change-of-mind or wrong-tool return, it must be unused and complete.

Vehicle or function coverage is separate from a product fault. Scan-tool coverage varies by make, model, year, engine and fitted system. A function not being available on one vehicle does not automatically mean the tool is faulty. Contact us and we will check the coverage with you.

Online return request

Use the email address from your order.

The customer account portal links your request to the original order. You do not need a password. Shopify will email a six-digit verification code.

Step 01

Enter your email

Use the same email address that was entered when the order was placed.

Step 02

Verify the login

Copy the six-digit code sent to your email and enter it in the portal.

Step 03

Select the order

Open the relevant order and choose the item or items involved.

Step 04

Explain the reason

Select a return reason, add useful details and submit the request for review.

After a return

Inspection, approval and refunds.

Submitting a request does not mean the return has already been approved. We will review it and provide instructions before anything is sent.

Inspection

We check the returned item

Once the item arrives, we inspect its condition, contents and the reason for return before confirming the outcome.

Approved refund

Returned to the original method

Approved refunds are normally issued to the payment method used for the order within 10 business days of approval.

Processing time

Your provider may take longer

Banks and payment providers can take additional time to display a refund. Contact us if more than 15 business days have passed since approval.

New Zealand consumer rights: This 12-month warranty and our returns process are in addition to any rights you may have under applicable New Zealand consumer law.
