FAQ

I don't have a sensor to copy. What do I do?

The Program New Sensor feature in the Pro+ tool generates a NEW Id number for a Smart Sensor. Keep in mind that you MUST perform the vehicle relearn after installing a sensor with a new ID.

I programmed new Smart Sensors and installed them but the TPMS light is still on.

Every time you install a new TPMS sensor on a vehicle with a NEW Id, The vehicle will ignore that sensor until the vehicle's relearn procedure has been performed.

I don't see the option for OBDII for a vehicle.

Not every vehicle requires an OBDII Relearn. Ford and GM use a positional relearn using the scan sensor function. Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram and European vehciles use a driving "Auto Relearn Process". OBDII Relearns are mainly for Asian Import vehicles. The OBDII option will show up for supported vehicles in the vehicle menu.

Will the Pro+ Tool work with other sensors?

The Pro+ Tool is a full diagnostic / scan tool. The tool can be used to Scan/Diagnose OEM sensors and Aftermarket sensors that are not blank. It will only program Blank Smart Sensors. Other Pre-Programmed sensors will scan and read with the Pro+ Tool.

Will other Tools work with the Smart Sensor?

The Smart Sensors are blank out of the box. Once they are programmed for a vehicle application, other TPMS Tools can perform the relearn, scan/diagnose, etc. To create a programmed Smart Sensor from a Smart Sensor blank you need the Pro+ Tool, or one of the following Tools/Accessories.

Charge Pro+ Tool

Ensure the Pro+ Tool is fully charged. If the Pro+ battery runs out during the update process, the tool may not function properly or be able to update.

Connect Tool

After your Pro+ tool has charged completely, connect it to your computer via the included USB cable. Power the tool on. You may here a chime from the computer notifying you that a USB device is connected. (note: first time connecting after installing Pro+ Updater may require drivers to install. This may take a minute or two. Please wait until software prompts you to continue.)

Update Pro+ Tool

Click "Update" to update tool. This may take a few minutes to complete. Once the update is complete the progress bar will say 100%. The tool display will say Update Complete Please Unplug to reset. Unplug the Pro+ from the computer to reset the tool. It will flash the low bat light and power off. Turn the tool on and you are ready to use the tool.

OBDII Module Update

Simply connect OBDII module to computer using the same connection that you used for the PRO+ Tool. With the software still open it will prompt you to update. Press Update to update the module.
