Show the detailed description of the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTCs)

 

Erasing Codes & Reset

Turns off Check Engine Light (MIL), clears codes and resets monitors.

 

Data Stream

Reads and displays live ECU/PCM data stream, plotting functions graphically and stores freeze frame data.

 

I/M Readiness Status

Shows whether the various emissions-related systems on the vehicle are operating properly and are ready for inspection and maintenance testing.

 

Read Live Data Stream

Show the information of continuous data stream from a vehicle in live graphic (waveform) display.

 

View Freeze Frame Data

Check the certain vehicle conditions which are recorded by the on-board computer at the time the emission-related fault occurs.

 

O2 Sensor Test

Allows retrieval and viewing of O2 sensor monitor test results for the most recently performed tests from the vehicle’s on-board computer.

 

On-Board Monitor Test

Retrieves and displays test results for emission-related powertrain components and systems.

 

Read Vehicle Information

Display the information such as VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), CID (Calibration ID) and CVN (Calibration Verification Number), etc.

 

Component Test

Certain vehicle components can be actuated by commands sent from the scanner to test their operability

 

2. 28 Maintenance Reset Functions:

 

(Note: All 28 Reset Functions are Life-time Free Update! Currently 16 functions are available and will be increased to 26 - 28 later)

 

1). Oil Reset

Allows you to perform reset for a new calculation of Engine Oil Life system once changed the oil. 

 

2). EPB Reset

It is important in the maintenance of electronic braking system safety and efficiency. 

 

3). BMS Reset

Allows the scan tool to evaluate the battery charge state, monitor the close-circuit current, register the battery replacement, and activate the rest state of the vehicle. 

 

4). DPF Reset

Specially works for Diesel Particulate Filter system with DPF regeneration, DPF component replacement teach-in and DPF teach-in after replacing the engine control unit. 

 

5). SAS Reset

Helps clear the fault steering angle sensor memories and plays an important role in the steering angle sensor calibration. 

 

6). TPMS Reset

Makes sense in displaying sensor IDs from the vehicle ECU, inputting TPMS sensor replacement IDs and testing sensors. 

 

7). IMMO Reset

It is mainly used to disable the lost vehicle keys and program a new replacement key fob. 

 

8). ABS Bleeding

ABS brake bleeding to get a firm brake pad after air exhaustion. 

 

9). Throttle Reset

The throttle body is a tube containing a pivoting flat valve (butterfly) that is used to control the amount of air entering an engine. In an electronically fuel injected car, a throttle position sensor and air flow sensor communicate with the computer, which supplies the corresponding amount of fuel needed at the injectors. It must need re-learning throttle sensor position after clearing or repair 

 

10). Injector Coding

Leaking injectors and some dead injectors can be missed even when an injector is disabled. Other problems with the ignition system and mechanical components also may not show an rpm loss when an injector is turned off. 

 

11). Gear Learning

After the engine ECU, crankshaft position sensor, or crankshaft flywheel is replaced, or the DTC “tooth not learned” is present, tooth learning must be performed. 

 

12). Suspension Matching

Adjust the vehicle height sensor for level calibration. 

 

13). Sunroof Initialization

Set the sunroof lock off, close in rain, memory function of sliding 1 tilting sunroof, outside temperature threshold, etc. 

 

14). Battery Matching

By clearing the original breakdown information about the lack of battery power, rematch the battery. 

 

15). A/F Reset

Applied to set or lean Air/Fuel ratio parameters.

 

16). Steering Angle Reset

Helps clear the fault steering angle sensor memories and plays an important role in the steering angle sensor calibration.

 

3. Actuation Test, Bi-Directional Test and ECU Coding:

 

Actuation Test / Bi-Directional Test and ECU Coding also supported at additional costs USD49.95/year (You can buy from ThinkCar Store directly).

 

Actuation Test function is used to test whether the execution components in the electronic control system can work normally. 

 

ECU Coding function is used to re-flash the vehicle control modules. It is used to reprogram adaptive data for vehicle control modules after repairs or replacements of vehicle parts; Provide solutions for the issues of Drivability, Fuel Efficiency, Power Loss, Fault Codes, Durability of Mechanical Parts etc.; Brake the limitations and restrictions; make full use of the car hidden features, like change the warn beeps on car, set how many times the one-touch signal flickers for one touch, remember settings for Start / Stop systems, and more.
