6.3 Steering Angle Calibration 
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. 
6.4 ABS Bleeding 
This  function  allows  you  to  perform  various  bi-directional  tests  to  check  the 
operating conditions of Anti-lock Braking System (ABS). 
1. When the ABS contains air, the ABS bleeding function must be performed to 
bleed the brake system to restore ABS brake sensitivity. 
2. 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. 
6.5 Tire Pressure Monitor System Reset 
This function allows you to quickly look up the tire sensor IDs from the vehicle’s 
ECU, as well as to perform TPMS replacement and sensor test. 
1. After the tire  pressure MIL 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. 
2. 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, tire is replaced, tire pressure sensor 
is  damaged,  and  tire  is  replaced  for  the  car  with  tire  pressure  monitoring 
function. 
6.6 Gear Learning 
The crankshaft position sensor learns crankshaft tooth machining tolerance and 
saves  to  the  computer  to  more  accurately  diagnose  engine  misfires.  If  tooth 
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 DTC P1336 'tooth 
not learned'. In this case, you must use the diagnostic device to perform tooth
