Kvaser Leaf Light HS V2 CAN Interface – BUDS3 Compatible Diagnostic Adapter

CAN Interface Cable Kvaser Leaf Light HS V2 (China Version) – Compatible with BUDS3

The Kvaser Leaf Light HS V2 CAN Interface is a reliable and cost-effective USB-to-CAN adapter designed to provide stable communication between a PC and the CAN-bus systems used in BRP vehicles.

This interface is fully compatible with BUDS3 diagnostic software, making it a practical solution for diagnostics, service procedures, ECU communication, and module programming on Sea-Doo, Ski-Doo, Can-Am and other BRP platforms. 

This device represents an excellent affordable alternative to more expensive professional CAN interfaces required for BUDS3 operation, while still delivering high-speed data transfer and stable performance.

It is an ideal choice for:

• independent repair workshops
• ECU tuning specialists
• BRP vehicle owners
• service engineers and diagnostic technicians
• dealers needing an additional diagnostic interface
