This nifty piece of kit communicates with the on-board computer and once faults are identified and repaired, resets the warning light - an essential service tool for today's garage.
Applications cover ABS, airbag and climate control. It also covers the electronic park brake; releasing the brake calipers when replacing brake pads. The EOBD application monitors emission data, clears fault codes and a fault code library is included. A service reset application clears the dashboard indicator and an important use of this is when resetting the steering the steering angle sensor to make sure the vehicle drives in a straight line when tracking has been checked.
The tool also has a tyre pressure monitoring application, vital for any workshop involved in removing wheels from a vehicle, registering a new valve or re-registering the location of a wheel should it be moved. The OmiCheck service tool can be upgraded to the Professional model which has more in-depth applications and manufacturer-specific fault diagnosis.
The OmiCheck Service and the OmiCheck Professional both have the advantage of never switching off.
