6. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
6.1. TPMS TOOL OVERVIEW
Read and diagnose sensors, OBD2 ECU reset and transfer data to ECU.
Note: With most vehicles, if the vehicle is in “learn mode” the vehicle will also confirm that
the TPM sensor has communicated to the ECM with a series of horn beeps.
Service Procedure
Section 1.0: Read Sensor Test
Before servicing the tires/wheels, using your TPMS TOOL,
trigger each of the vehicle's sensors to make sure they are
working properly.
MAIN MENU
> CHECK SENSOR
SERVICE TPMS
PROGRAM BLANK SENSOR
This will eliminate the liability associated with replacing previously damaged or defective
sensors. This procedure will not change the vehicle settings because the vehicle has yet to
be put into learn/retraining mode. This procedure allows you to quickly identify damaged or
defective sensors, because some vehicles do not report a damaged or defective sensor
condition on the instrument cluster for up to 20 minutes.
Note: If the sensors do not trigger, please refer to the Troubleshooting section of this Guide.
Perform tire/wheel service.
For vehicles that require retraining, please see to Section 2.0
Section 2.0: Learning TPM System
With the vehicle in learn mode, begin by triggering the
driver's front left (LF) wheel sensor. Many vehicles will
provide an audible chirp confirming that the sensor ID has
been learned by the vehicle on board computer.
MAIN MENU
> CHECK SENSOR
SERVICE TPMS
PROGRAM BLANK SENSOR
The communication between the sensor and the on board computer
is also confirmed on LCD display of the TOOL.
The same procedure should be followed on all wheel sensors, in a
clockwise rotation, until all the vehicle sensors have been retrained.
After triggering the driver's rear wheel sensor, some vehicles will
chirp twice indicating that the TPM system has been retrained.
1 Start FL
FR 2
4 End RL
RR 3
Fig. 5
For vehicles that do not require retraining, we recommend you trigger each wheel sensor, one
final time, to make sure they are working correctly prior to releasing the vehicle to the customer.

Background noises and frequency interferences are invisible and are not audible most of
the time. It is important to turn off all electronic devices surrounding the work area when
resetting the DIRECT TPM System. This unique feature allows users to find the sources of
other RF interferences. The TOOL looks for these signals and displays the strength of the
interference on the bar graph display.

LEVEL
BATTERY
LEVEL
Your TPMS TOOL incorporates a low battery
detection circuit. Battery life is an average of
1000 sensor tests per battery charge
(approximately 200-250 cars).
When battery is low, the battery screen is
flashing with the message "LOW" and the red
light "LOW BAT" is on.
LOW

The power button may also be pressed and held
for a second to display battery status.

Fig. 8
When the battery is low, the “status bar” appears every 10 seconds. This display will stop
when the battery loses power.
Plug the supply jack to the tool and plug the supply in a appropriate outlet. The LED
"CHARGE" light will turn on.
It’s not recommended to use the tool with low
battery status because the transmission and
emission may not be reliable.
BATTERY
LEVEL
Once charged, the bar graph is full and the LED
"CHARGE" light turns off.
Battery replacement
The tool must be returned to the factory for battery replacement.
Opening the tool or tampering with the seal placed on the tool, if broken will void
the warranty

2. TROUBLESHOOTING
If the TPMS TOOL is unable to trigger one or more of the sensors, using either electronic
or magnetic activation, please use the following troubleshooting guide:
1) The vehicle does not have a sensor even though a metal valve stem is present. Be
aware of Schrader rubber style snap-in stems used on TPMS systems.
2) The sensor, module or ECU itself may be damaged or defective.
3) The sensor may be the type that periodically triggers on its own and is not designed to
respond to a triggering frequency.
4) Your TPMS TOOL may require a software upgrade.
5) Check “Auto Off” time settings for screen display.
6) Your TPMS TOOL is damaged or defective.
3. TOOL UPDATE

As a new protocol becomes available, it will become necessary to upgrade your tool.
Please follow the steps below:
