Select a network to connect to on the Wi-Fi connection page. You need to enter the Wi-Fi password to establish Wi-Fi connectivity and the activation page, as shown in the figure below. You can also click the "Trial" button in the upper right corner to try it out before activation.
Click OK to enter the diagnostic system and start using the device. 2. D IAGNOSTIC The diagnostic application can read ECU information, read and clear DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Codes) and check live data and freeze frame data. The Diagnostic application can access the ECU of various vehicle control systems, including the Engine, Transmission, Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Airbag Safety Restraing System (SRS), Electronic Parking Brake system (EPB) and perform many types of actuation tests.

ECU information, and confirm whether the VIN can be read. ③ Contact the XTOOL technical team to provide the VIN code to confirm whether the model supports automatic identification of VIN. MANUAL ENTER: It supports manual input of car VIN code. When entering the VIN code manually, make sure that the 17 characters entered are correct to ensure accurate test results.
OBD-II supports reading the related fault codes of the Powertrain Control Module (PCM); DEMO, a demonstration program; Click this button to experience and learn the operation processes of the diagnostic function Some models provide multiple entry methods in the sub-menu, including: ⚫...
⚫ READ ECU INFORMATION This function is to read ECU version information and is the equivalent of "System Identification" or "System Information” in some electronic control systems. These equivalent terms all refer to reading ECU-related software and hardware versions, models and production date of diesel engines, part numbers, etc. This information is helpful when recording maintenance records and ordering new parts ⚫...
It allows for clearing current and historical trouble codes stored in the ECU memory, under the premise that all the troubles have been resolved. Some troubles are immediately detected by the ECU with the key in the run position and without the engine running. Other troubles are not detected until very specific test conditions are met such as engine coolant temperature within a range, speed within a range for a duration of time, throttle percentage within a range, etc.

⚫ Custom The scan tool includes support to select and show multiple PIDs. Click Display All to display all PIDs ⚫ Combine The scan tool includes support to select multiple PIDs and click Combine to combine different graphs into one chart. ⚫...
⚫ Pause Click this button to pause the recording timeline ⚫ FREEZE FRAME When the signal of the sensor is abnormal, the ECU will save the data at that moment of failure to form a freeze-frame. It is usually used to analyze the reasons that may lead to component(?) failures. The live data items supported by vehicles of different brands are not the same, so the freeze frames displayed when diagnosing vehicles of different brands may also be different.

Context when fault appeared: record the live data when fault appeared to help the user to know the vehicle status. *Some vehicles don't support this function; users will get a prompt when they click the menu. Current context: Displays the current live data stream associated with the DTC Additional data: record other data related to the fault ⚫...
These functions often eliminate the need to reset codes after resolving common problems. Since XTOOL is continuously developing, the manual may not include all of the latest special functions that are available for download. This user manual lists some of the commonly used special reset services for your reference.

When ready, click "OK" to enter the bleed procedure, and pumping the brake pedal continuously with steady applies every 2 seconds during the entire procedure...
Page 19
Continue pumping the brake pedal, when air bubbles are no longer visible, select OK to enter next bleed procedure for left front wheel Repeat the operation 3 times to complete the bleed procedure for the left front wheel, right front wheel and right rear wheel in turn.
Caution ⚫ The ABS pump screw needs to be unscrewed ⚫ Brake fluid will be under pressure during this process. Secure the bleed hose and open bleeder screws slowly ⚫ Some vehicles do not support automatic bleeding, but manually bleeding 3.2 OIL RESET The scan tool can be used to reset the engine oil life system, which calculates the optimum oil life change interval based on the vehicle’s driving conditions and climate.
Page 21
Enter Maintenance mileage reset menu. Click INPUT and enter a reasonable value of remaining oil life and press OK. Confirm the [New Value] you just entered, and then click OK at the bottom right to complete the procedure. Message of ‘Write successfully’ displays when Oil Reset function has successfully performed.
3.3 EPB Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) System reset is a popular special function. You can use this function to reset the electronic parking brake system and brake pads (retraction, release of the brake pump), G-sensor and body angle calibration. This function has multiple uses and can safely and effectively maintain the electronic brake system.
Wait until the message of ‘Successful operation’ popes up. And press OK to exit the menu. Enter the Exit maintenance mode menu and wait until the message of ‘‘Successful operation’ popes up. 3.3 SAS Steering Angle Sensors (SAS) System Calibration permanently stores the current steering wheel position as the straight- ahead position in the SAS EEPROM.
Follow the instructions displayed and press OK after completing the instructions shown. Wait until the following instruction is displayed and press OK after completing the instructions shown. Message of ‘Function execution is completed’ displayed when SAS reset function has successfully completed. 3.5 BMS RESET The Battery Management System (BMS) 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.

⚫ The main battery is replaced. Battery matching must be performed to clear original low battery information and prevent the related control module from detecting false information. If the related control module detects false information, it will invalidate some electric auxiliary functions, such as automatic start & stop function, sunroof without one-key trigger function or power window without automatic function.
3.6 INJECTOR CODING This function can write the identification code of the fuel injector into the ECU so that the ECU can recognize the new injector. After the ECU or injector is replaced, the injector code of each cylinder must be confirmed or re-coded so that the cylinder can better identify injectors to accurately control fuel injection.
Enter the Change the value of cylinder menu of the replaced injector(s), enter the new 5-digit value, and then press Wait until the message ‘Write successfully’ pops up. Turn off the ignition switch. Wait until the message asks you to turn on the ignition switch. Re-enter the Fuel injection nozzle injection volume adjustment menu to check whether the new value(s) are shown.
