Three Specific functions for VAG vehicles diagnosis ONLY:

|
---|---|---|
Oil Service ResetChanging oil is probably the most important part of routine maintenance for any vehicle. An oil change consists of removing old oil from a vehicle's engine and replacing it with fresh oil. The engine oil filter is usually also changed at the same time. VD500 code reader can reset your oil service to complete this important maintenance. |
TPS Replacement ResetIf these problems occurs: engine stalling or misfiring, poor engine performance, lack of power, transmission shifting incorrectly, chances are that you need to get the throttle position sensor (TPS) inspected. After that, the trouble codes will need to be cleared. VD500 can clear codes and reset the TPS. |
Electrical Park Brake (EPB) ResetEPB (Electric Parking Brake) is a technology that applies parking brake via electronic control. VD500 is an essential tool required to release rear electric parking brake unit when replacing rear pads or discs so that the caliper piston can be moved back. It can also clear codes and the EPB light when the replacement is done. |

TPMS for VAG Vehicles Diagnosis
If the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) light is illuminated, it means your tires could be underinflated, which can lead to undue tire wear and possible tire failure. VD500 can read codes on the TPMS system to identify possible problems including a bad sensor or underinflation and clear them when a solution is found.

TPMS

SRS(Airbag)

Transmission System

ABS

Battery Check for VAG Diagnosis
The battery light (a light in the shape of a battery symbol) indicates a battery charging problem. If the battery light comes on and stays on while you are driving, the most common cause is a broken alternator belt. You can use VD500 to read the fault code and clear it when the problem is located.

ESP for VAG Vehicles Diagnosis
Electronic Stability Program (also Electronic Stability Control) can improve a vehicle's stability by detecting and reducing loss of traction (skidding). When ESP detects a loss of steering control, please check the ESP light and get a code reading before you do anything about it. It can help you to minimize potential losses, both monetary and in terms of human life.

SAS for VAG Vehicles Diagnosis
The steering angle sensor (SAS) is a critical part of the ESC system that measures the steering wheel position angle and rate of turn. SAS is very important for the safety of the driver and the passenger alike. When the SAS light is on, you can use VD500 to read error codes. Once a problem is fixed, you can use VD500 to clear the codes.

Immobilizer for VAG Diagnosis
The immobilizer warning light turns on if your anti-theft system does not recognize the car key being used, or if it's the wrong key or low on battery. The engine may start and run for a few seconds before dying or the engine may not even crank up at all. VD500 can assist you by reading error codes associated with the above-mentioned symptoms.
