LAUNCH X431 V+ Reset Service Functions: 
Besides ECU coding, ALL systems’ diagnoses and bi-directional  test,  X-431  V+ also  features 
various and helpful service functions. The most commonly  performed service functions contain: 
1.  Oil Reset Service 
This function can be performed in the following  cases: 
i.   If the service lamp is on, you must provide  service  for the  car. After service,you need  to 
reset the driving mileage or driving time so that the service lamp turns off and the system 
enables the new service cycle. 
ii.  After changing engine oil or electric appliances that monitor oil  life, you need to reset the 
service lamp. 
2.  Steering Angle Calibration 
This function can be performed in the following  cases: 
i.   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.  
ii.  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. 
3.  Electronic Parking Brake Reset 
i.   If the brake pad wears the brake pad sense line, the brake pad sense linesends 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. 
ii.  Reset must be performed in the following  cases: 
1)  The brake pad and brake pad wear sensor are replaced.  
2)  The brake pad indicator lamp is on. 
3)  The brake pad sensor circuit is short, which is recovered. The servo motor is replaced. 
4.  ABS Bleeding 
This function allows you to perform various bi-directional tests to check the operating conditions 
of Anti- lock Braking System (ABS). 
i.   When the ABS contains air,  the ABS bleeding function must  be performed to bleed the 
brake system to restore ABS brake sensitivity. 
ii.  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. 
5.  Electronic Throttle Position Reset / Learn 
This function enables you to initialize the throttle actuators so that the “learned” values stored on 
ECU are returned to the default state. Doing so can accurately regulate throttle (or idle engine) 
operations  to  control  the  amount  of  air  intake.  Throttle  matching  must  be  performed  in  the 
following  cases: 
i.   The ECU is replaced and the ECU does not yet store throttle working features. 
ii.  The ECU is disconnected from power and the ECU memory is lost.
