1. Introduction
The Smart TPMS Diagnostic System is specially developed by LAUNCH, which enables users to trigger TPMS sensor, program TPMS sensor, perform TPMS relearning and diagnostics. It also supports sensor OE number lookup and all 10 modes of OBD II test for a complete diagnosis. Moreover, it offers coding, reset, relearn and more service functions, to help vehicles get back to functional status after repair or replacement. This tool is specially designed to work with all OBD II compliant vehicles. To verify if a vehicle is OBD II compliant, check the following: 1. Vehicle Emissions Control Information (VECI) Label. It is located under
the hood or by the radiator of most vehicles. If the vehicle is OBD II compliant, the label will designate “OBD II Certified”.
2. Government regulations mandate that all OBD II compliant vehicles must have a “common” 16-pin Data Link Connector (DLC).
Note: Some 1994 and 1995 vehicles have 16-pin connectors but are not OBD II compliant. Only those vehicles with a Vehicle Emissions Control Label stating “OBD II Certified” are OBD II compliant.

2. General Information-About OBDII/EOBD
2.1 On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) II
The OBD II system is designed to monitor emission control systems and key engine components by performing either continuous or periodic tests of specific components and vehicle conditions, which will relay the following information: · Whether the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is commanded “on” or
“off”; · Which, if any, Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are stored; · Readiness Monitor status.
2.2 Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)
OBD II Diagnostic Trouble Codes are codes that are stored by the on-board computer diagnostic system in response to a problem found in the vehicle. These codes identify a particular problem area and are intended to provide you with a guide as to where a fault might be occurring within a vehicle. DO NOT replace parts based only on DTCs without first consulting the vehicle’s service manual for proper testing procedures for that particular system, circuit or component. OBD II Diagnostic Trouble Codes consist of a five-digit alphanumeric code. The 1st character is a letter (B, C, P or U). It identifies the “main system”
where the fault occurred (Body, Chassis, Powertrain, or Network). The 2nd character is a numeric digit (0 thru 3). It identifies the “type” of
code (Generic or Manufacturer-Specific). Note: Generic DTCs are codes that are used by all vehicle manufacturers. The standards for generic DTCs, as well as their definitions, are set by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). Manufacturer-Specific DTCs are codes that are controlled by the vehicle manufacturers. The Federal Government does not require vehicle manufacturers to go beyond the standardized generic DTCs in order to comply with the new OBD II emissions standards. However, manufacturers are free to expand beyond the standardized codes to make their systems easier to diagnose.
2
LAUNCH The 3rd character is a letter or a numeric digit (0 thru 9, A thru F). It
identifies the specific system or sub-system where the problem is located. The 4th and 5th characters are letters or numeric digits (0 thru 9, A thru F).
They identify the section of the system that is malfunctioning.

2.3 Location of the Data Link Connector (DLC)
The DLC (Data Link Connector or Diagnostic Link Connector) is typically a 16-pin connector where diagnostic code readers interface with the vehicle’s on-board computer. It is usually located 12 inches from the center of the instrument panel, under or around the driver’s side for most vehicles. For some vehicles with special designs, the DLC location may vary. Refer to the following figure for possible DLC location.
A- Opel, Volkswagen, Audi B- Honda C- Volkswagen D- Opel, Volkswagen, Citroen E- Changan F- Hyundai, Daewoo, Kia, Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Renault, Opel, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Mazda, Volkswagen, Audi, GM, Chrysler, Peugeot, Regal, Beijing Jeep, Citroen and other most popular models If the DLC cannot be found, refer to the vehicle’s service manual for the location.
