Throttle Adaption, IMMO Service, Injector Coding, Break-pad Reset, Steering Angle Reset, ABS Bleeding, AFS Reset, Battery Matching, Alf Learning, DPF Regeneration, EGR Adaption, TPMS Reset, Sunroof Initialization, Suspension Matching, Gear Learning, Airbag Reset, ODO Reset, AdBlue Reset, A/F Reset, Coolant Bleeding, Language Change, NOx Sensor Reset, Seat Calibration, Stop/Start Reset, Transport Mode, Tyre Reset, Windows Calibration.

Oil Reset
The lightening of the car maintenance light indicates that the vehicle needs maintenance. Reset the mileage or driving time to zero after the maintenance, so the maintenance light will go out and the system will start a new maintenance cycle.

Elec. Throttle Adaption
Elec. Throttle Adaption is to utilize the car decoder to initialize the throttle actuator so that the learning value of the ECU returns to the initial state. By doing these, the movement of the throttle (or idle motor) can be more accurately controlled, thus adjust the intake volume. Situations when throttle matching is needed:
a) After replacing the electronic control unit, the relevant characteristics of the throttle operation have not been stored in the electronic control unit.
b) After the electric control unit is powered off, the memory of the electric control unit’s memory is lost
c) After replacing the throttle assembly, you need to match the throttle.
d) After replacing or disassembling the intake port, the controlling of the idle speed by the coordination between the electronic control unit and the throttle body is affected.
e) Although the characteristics of the idle throttle potentiometer have not changed, the intake volume has changed and the idle control characteristics have changed at the same throttle openings.

Steering Angle Reset
To reset the steering angle, first find the relative zero point position for the car to drive in straight line. Taking this position as reference, the ECU can calculate the accurate angle for left and right steering.
After replacing the steering angle position sensor, replacing steering mechanical parts (such as steering gearbox, steering column, end tie rod, steering knuckle), performing four-wheel alignment, or recovering car body, you must reset the steering angle.

Battery Matching
This function enables you to perform a resetting operation on the monitoring unit of vehicle battery, in which the original low battery fault information will be cleared and battery matching will be done.
Battery matching must be performed in the following cases:
a ) 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, power window without automatic function.
b ) Battery monitoring sensor. Battery matching is performed to re-match the control module and motoring sensor to detect battery power usage more accurately, which can avoid an error message displaying on the instrument panel.

ABS Bleeding
When the ABS contains air, the ABS bleeding function must be performed to bleed the brake system to restore ABS brake sensitivity. If the ABS computer, ABS pump, brake master cylinder, brake cylinder, brake line, or brake fluid is replaced, the ABS bleeding function must be performed to bleed the ABS.

Break-pad Reset
If the brake pad wears the brake pad sense line, the brake pad sense line sends a signal sense line to the on-board computer to replace the brake pad. After replacing the brake pad, you must reset the brake pad. Otherwise, the car alarms.
Reset must be performed in the following cases:
a ) The brake pad and brake pad wear sensor are replaced.
b ) The brake pad indicator lamp is on.
c ) The brake pad sensor circuit is short, which is recovered.
d ) The servo motor is replaced.

DPF Regeneration
DPF regeneration is used to clear PM (Particulate Matter) from the DPF filter through continuous combustion oxidation mode (such as high temperature heating combustion, fuel additive or catalyst reduce
PM ignition combustion) to stabilize the filer performance.
DPF regeneration may be performed in the following cases:
a ) The exhaust back pressure sensor is replaced.
b ) The PM trap is removed or replaced.
c ) The fuel additive nozzle is removed or replaced.
d ) The catalytic oxidizer is removed or replaced.
e ) The DPF regeneration MIL is on and maintenance is performed.
f ) The DPF regeneration control module is replaced.

Gear Learning
The crankshaft position sensor learns crankshaft gear machining tolerance and saves to the computer to more accurately diagnose engine misfires. If gear learning is not performed for a car equipped with Delphi engine, the MIL turns on after the engine is started. The diagnostic device detects the OTC P1336 ‘gear not learned’. In this case, you must use the diagnostic device to perform gear learning for the car.
After gear learning is successful, the MIL turns off. After the engine ECU, crankshaft position sensor, or crankshaft flywheel is replaced, or the OTC ‘gear not learned’ is present, gear learning must be performed.

IMMO Service
To prevent the car being used by unauthorized keys, the anti-theft key matching function must be performed so that the immobilizer control system on the car identifies and authorizes remote control keys to normally use the car. When the ignition switch key, ignition switch, combined instrument panel, ECU, BCM, or remote control battery is replaced, anti-theft key matching must be performed.

Injector Coding
Write injector actual code or rewrite code in the ECU to the injector code of the corresponding cylinder so as to more accurately control or corect cylinder injection quantity. After the ECU or injector is replaced, injector code of each cylinder must be confirmed or re-coded so that the cylinder can better identify injectors to accurately control fuel injection.

TPMS Reset
After the tire pressure ML turns on and maintenance is performed, the tire pressure resetting function must be performed to reset tire pressure and turn off the tire pressure MIL. Tire pressure resetting must be performed after maintenance is performed in the following cases: tire pressure is too low, tire leaks, tire pressure monitoring device is replaced or installed, lire is replaced, lire pressure sensor is damaged, and tire is replaced for the car with tire pressure monitoring function.

Suspension Matching
This function can adjust the height of the body. When replacing the body height sensor in the air suspension system, or control module or when the vehicle level is incorrect, you need to perform this function to adjust the body height sensor for level calibration.

AFS Reset
This feature is used to initialize the adaptive headlamp system. According to the ambient light intensity, the adaptive headlamp system may decide whether to automatically turn on the headlamps, and timely adjust the headlamp lighting angle while monitoring the vehicle speed and body posture.

A/T Learning
This function can complete the gearbox self-learning to improve gear shifting quality. When the gearbox is disassembled or repaired (after some of the car battery is powered off), it will lead to shift delay or impact problem. In this case, this function needs to be done so that the gearbox can automatically compensate according to the driving conditions so as to achieve more comfortable and better shift quality.

Sunroof Initialization
This function can set the sunroof lock off, closed when it rains, sliding / tilting sunroof memory function, temperature threshold outside the car etc.

EGR Adaption
This function is used to learn the EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve after it is cleaned or replaced.

ODO Reset
a ) ODO reset is to copy, write, or rewrite the value of kilometers in the chip of odometer by using a car diagnostic computer and data cable, so that the odometer shows the actual mileage.
b ) Usually when the mileage is not correct due to the damaged vehicle speed sensor or odometer failure, it is necessary to do ODO reset after maintenance.

Airbag Reset
This function resets the airbag data to clear the airbag collision fault indicator. When the vehicle collides and the airbag deploys, the corresponding fault code of the collision data appears, the airbag indicator lights up, and the fault code cannot be cleared. Since the data inside the airbag computer is disposable, it is required that all new accessories must be replaced, but after performing this function, the data of the airbag computer can be recovered and the fault code can be cleared, the airbag light will go out, and the airbag computer can continue to use.

Transport Mode
In order to reduce power consumption, the following functions may be disabled, including limiting the vehicle speed, not waking up the door opening network, and disabling the remote control key, etc. At this time, the transport mode needs to be deactivated to restore the vehicle to normal.

A/F Reset
This function is applied to set or learn Air/Fuel ratio parameters.

Stop/Start Reset
This function is used to open or close the automatic start-stop function via setting the hidden function in ECU (provided that the vehicle has a hidden function and supported by hardware).

NOx Sensor Reset
NOx sensor is a sensor used to detect the content of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in engine exhaust. If the NOx fault is re-initialized and the NOx catalytic converter is replaced, it is necessary to reset the catalytic converter learned value stored in the engine ECU.

AdBlue Reset (Diesel Engine Exhaust Gas Filter)
After the diesel exhaust treatment fluid (car urea) is replaced or filed up, urea reset operation is required.

Seat Calibration
This function is applied to match the seats with memory function that are replaced and repaired.
