## NHTSA's summary

Service Information \(ODIS Service \& VAS\-PC ? Uninstall and Reinstall Overview\): When ODIS Service is installed on VAS diagnostic devices with VAS\-PC diagnostic software, a number of application and diagnostic database files are shared. As a result, whenever ODIS Service or VAS\-PC diagnostic software requires uninstallation and reinstallation to resolve software malfunctions, or the diagnostic device?s Windows XP® operating system requires a full recovery, a specific sequence must be followed in each case. This document informs of the specific sequence that must take place.
