9. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

9.1. TPA 300 O
The Bosch TPA 300 offers the versatility to work in conjunction with a Bosch scan tool or as a
stand-alone TPMS tool, depending of the task you want to achieve.
Stand-alone mode can be used to read, program and copy TPMS sensors, test RKE, save and
retrieve jobs, and setup the tool.
Connect to scan tool mode offers the ability to connect wirelessly to a Bosch scan tool and to
register the TPMS sensors IDs into the vehicle ECU.
9.2. S
ERVICE PROCEDURE
Section 1 - 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. You can either use the standalone or the connect to scan
tool mode to select the make, model, and year of your vehicle.
I - Select the Make, Model,
Year of the vehicle.
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
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: With some vehicles, if the vehicle is in "learn mode" the vehicle will also confirm that the
TPM sensor has communicated to the ECU with a series of horn beeps.
Note: If the sensors do not trigger, please refer to the Troubleshooting section of this Guide.
For vehicles that require relearn procedure, please see Section 2.
