1. Safety Precautions and Warnings To prevent personal injury or damage to vehicles and/or the scan tool, read this instruction manual first and observe the following safety precautions at a minimum whenever working on a vehicle: Always perform diagnosis or service in a safe environment. Wear safety eye protection that meets ANSI standards. Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equipment, etc. away from all moving or hot engine parts.
2. General Information 2.1 TPMS system review A tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is an electronic system designed to monitor the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on various types of vehicles. TPMS report real-time tire-pressure information to the driver of the vehicle, either via a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light. TPMS can be divided into two different types — direct (dTPMS) and indirect (iTPMS).
2.3 TPMS tell-tale light When diagnosing TPMS systems, you should understand what the TPMS tell-tale light means. When turning the ignition OFF to ON, the TPMS tell-tale should come on, and then go off, which indicates the system is working fine. If the light stays on, there would be a pressure problem. If the light flashes, there would be a system problem, which can range from faulty sensors to sensors on the vehicle that haven‘t been learned to that vehicle. 2.

TABLE 1 Possible Result for Testing Icon Test Results Description √ Successful Sensor Read TPMS sensor is successfully activated and decoded. The tool displays the sensor information. X Failed Sensor Read If the search period expires and no sensor is activated or decoded, it may be wrong sensor fitting or non-functioning sensor. The tool displays a message “No sensor detected.”. In this case, repeat testing to confirm the TPMS failure.
NOTE: With Ford sensors, the tool should be held 180 degree away from the stem. Please refer to vehicle user’s manual. If the TPMS sensor requires a magnet, place the magnet over the stem and then place the tool alongside the stem, and press the TEST button.

5. RKE & RF Monitor Today's keyless remotes -- also known as key fobs -- make life easier. But when your key fob stops working or starts to perform sporadically, it will be particularly frustrating. Check your key fob to make sure it is in top condition so it will work when you really need it. Since a key fob is attuned to a special frequency that is only detected by the car for which it was issued, you will need to use your vehicle to test the fob.
3) The progress bar indicates the approximate power level of the key fob. The stronger the signal, the higher the beep tone. The tool only tests 315MHz and 433MHz key fobs. Press the N button to return to previous menu.
