What is DRB III Emulator Software

The DRB III Emulator software is a program that simulates the functions of the DRB III scan tool, which was the original diagnostic tool for Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge vehicles from 1998 to 2007. The DRB III scan tool used a proprietary protocol called DRB III to communicate with the vehicle's electronic control units (ECUs) and perform various diagnostic tests and procedures.



The DRB III Emulator software allows you to use a wiTECH Micropod 2 interface, which is a newer diagnostic device that supports multiple protocols, to access the DRB III functions on your computer. The wiTECH Micropod 2 interface acts as a bridge between the vehicle's OBDII port and the computer's USB port or wireless network. The DRB III Emulator software runs on the computer and displays the same menus and screens as the DRB III scan tool.



The DRB III Emulator software can help you diagnose and repair many problems that may occur on older Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge vehicles that use the DRB III protocol. You can read and clear trouble codes, view live data, perform actuator tests, program keys, reset modules, reflash ECUs and more.



Why You Need DRB III Emulator Software

If you own or work on older Chrysler, Jeep or Dodge vehicles that use the DRB III protocol, you may need the DRB III Emulator software for several reasons:
