How To Update Vgate Maxiscan Vs890 (2025)

Wait for the progress bar to reach 100%. This takes about 90 seconds.

Click “Open” or “Connect”.

Click “Load File” and select the .bin firmware file you downloaded.

Click “Update” or “Write”.

Wait: The update file will download and transfer to the scanner. Do not unplug the scanner during this process. This can "brick" the device.

The VS890 rarely receives Firmware updates (hardware brain updates). You are likely only updating the Software (the code definitions). If the update tool asks to update Firmware, be very careful; interrupting a firmware update can permanently damage the tool.
