Bartec TPMS Tools come with a feature known as VINdicate. Connect your tool to the OBD-II as the first step in your service process. The tool quickly detects and decodes the vehicle identification number (VIN) and decodes the make, model, and year. The tool is then ready to decode any TPMS related diagnostic trouble codes (DTC's), test sensors, program sensors or complete a relearn. Take the guesswork and inaccuracy out of TPMS with VINdicate.
