Functions Description
The KINGBOLEN K7 main unit has the following 9 functions:
-
Scan:
This module has auto search (automatic scanning of car models’ VIN), car model lists, Demo (demonstration of the diagnosis process), History (diagnosis records), OBD&IM (9 emission-related module diagnosis) -
OBD:
Support OBD II and EOBD protocols after 1996. -
Module:
Support external module, e.g. TPMS
Tip: Please upgrade the firmware in “Settings-Firmware Fix”
Activate Sensor
This function allows users to activate TPMS sensor to view sensor data such as
sensor ID, tire pressure, tire frequency, tire temperature and battery
condition. For universal sensors, place the tool by the alongside of the stem,
point toward the sensor location, and press the OK button. Once the sensor is
successfully activated and decoded, KINGBOLEN K7 will vocally announce that
the sensor is activated and the screen will display the sensor data.
Notes:
- For early magnet-activated sensors, place the magnet over the stem and then place the TPMS module accessorg by the alongside of the stem.
- If the TPMS sensor requires tire deflation (about I OPSI), then deflate the tire and place the TPMS modle accessorg by the alongside of the stem while pressing the OK button.
Repeat this step to check other vehicle sensors. After all sensors are
successfully activated, the following interface will appear. 
Program Sensor
This function allows users to program sensor data to kingbolen sensors to
replace faulty sensors that are with low battery capacity or not functioning.
The following options are available for programming kingbolen sensors:
Automatically Create (Auto), Manually Create (Manual) and Copy ID by
Activation (Replication).
Auto: This function is designed to program kingbolen sensors by applying
random IDs, created according to the test vehicle when it is unable to obtain
the original sensor IDs. Select the wheel which needs to be programmed, place
a kingbolen sensor close to the TPMS antenna of the tool, and select “Auto” to
create a random sensor ID.
Manual: This function allows users to manually input sensor ID. Users can
input a random ID or the original sensor ID if it is available.
Replication: This function allows users to write in the retrieved
original sensor data to the kingbolen sensor. It is used after the original
sensor is activated.
Programming steps:
- Place a kingbolen sensor close to the TPMS antenna of the tool
- Select the wheel (FL, FR, RL, RR) that the sensor is to be installed in
- Select the programming method (Auto, Manual, Replication)
- Click “Programming”
The programming process normally takes in 1 minute, and it would vocally announces the programming result, with sensor data displayed on the screen after it completes.
Relearn Sensor
This function allows users to check and view the detailed TPMS sensor relearn
procedures. Relearn operation applies only when the newly programmed sensor
IDs are different from the original sensor IDs stored in the vehicle’s ECU.
Relearn is used to write the newly programmed sensor IDs into the vehicle’s
ECU for sensor recognition.
Reset: Supports the most common multiple maintenance and reset functions,
it involves in 28 reset functions, there are shown as follows: Maintenance
Light Reset
(OIL); Steering Angle Reset (SAS); Battery Matching (BMS); ABS Exhaust (ABS);
Throttle Matching (ETS); Brake Pad Reset (EPB); DPF Regeneration (DPF); Anti
