1. Diagnosis
TOPDON ArtiDiag Pro supports Smart Diagnosis and Manual
Diagnosis covering OBDII diagnosis, full system diagnosis for most
modern vehicles worldwide.
A diagnostic report will be automatically generated after the
diagnosis.
1.1 Smart Diagnosis (Auto-Detect)
Power on the ArtiDiag Pro. Tap “Settings”, and make sure the
“Automatic detection on connect” is on.
*Note: Alternatively, the user can also tap "Diagnose" -> "AutoDetect"
to start the smart diagnosis manually if the “Automatic detection on
connect” is Off.
Connect to the DLC’s port, and then turn the ignition key on. The
ArtiDiag Pro will enter the Smart Diagnosis mode automatically.
*Note: If the automatic detection can not identify the vehicle, please
try to connect to the network. Not all cars support the Auto-Detect
function due to auto manufacturers' settings.
1.1.1 Once the system successfully obtains the VIN (Vehicle
Identication Number), it will continue scanning the vehicle systems.
A diagnostic report will be automatically generated after the scanning
is completed.
1.1.2 If the tablet fails to access the VIN information, the screen will

display as follows:
Input the VIN and tap “OK”; the system will automatically identify the
vehicle model.
If the VIN is successfully decoded, it will perform Smart Diagnosis until
a diagnostic report is automatically generated. Otherwise it will enter
the Manual Diagnosis mode.
*Note:
•
A highly stable and solid network connection is recommended for
successful VIN access.
•
VIN characters may be capital letters A through Z and numbers 1
through 0; however, the letters I, O and Q would never be used in
order to avoid misreading. No signs or spaces are allowed in
the VIN.
1.2 Manual Diagnosis
If the tablet cannot obtain or analyze the VIN information, you can
also perform Manual Diagnosis. In this mode, you need to execute
the menu-driven command and follow the on-screen instruction to

listed on the screen in a date sequence.
2. Maintenance Services
TOPDON ArtiDiag Pro features 29 of the most commonly used
maintenance services.
2.1 Maintenance Light Reset (Oil Reset)
This function enables you to reset the oil service lamp for the engine
oil life system, which calculates an optimal oil life change interval
depending on the vehicle driving conditions and weather events.
It needs to be performed in the following cases:
•
If the service lamp is on, run car diagnostics rst for troubleshooting.
20
After that, reset the driving mileage or driving time, so as to turn off
the service lamp, and enable a new driving cycle.
•
If the service lamp is not on, but you have changed the engine oil or
electric appliances that monitor oil life, you need to reset the service
lamp.
2.2 Steering Angle Reset (SAS Reset)
This function can reset the steering angle to zero to keep the car
running straight.

position sensor, or after replacing the mechanical parts of the steering
system (such as steering gear, steering column, tie rod ball head,
steering knuckle), or after completing the four-wheel positioning,
body repair, etc.
2.3 Injector Coding (INJECTOR)
This function can write injector actual code or rewrite code in the ECU
to the injector code of the corresponding cylinder, so as to control or
correct the cylinder injection quantity accurately.
It needs to be performed in the following cases:
•
After the ECU or injector is replaced.
2.4 Battery Matching (BAT. RESET)
This function can reset the monitoring unit of the car battery, by
clearing the original breakdown information about the lack of battery
power to rematch the battery.
It needs to be performed in the following cases:
•
The replacement of the main battery needs to utilize battery
matching to clear the former information about the lack of power,
thus avoiding false information detected by the relevant control
module which may cause the failure of some electronic auxiliary
functions. For example, the vehicle automatically stops; the sunroof
can’t work by one key; electric windows can’t open and close
automatically.
•
The battery monitoring sensor uses the battery matching function
to rematch the control module with the monitoring sensor, so as
to detect the use of the battery power more accurately, and avoid
receiving wrong information from instrument prompts which will
cause false alarms.
2.5 ABS Bleeding
This function enables you to perform tests to check the operating
conditions of Anti-lock Braking System (ABS).
EN
21
It needs to be performed in the following cases:

This function initializes the throttle actuator so that the learning value
of the ECU returns to the initial state. By doing so, the movement of
the throttle (or idle motor) can be more accurately controlled, thus
adjusting the intake volume.
It needs to be performed in the following cases:
•
After replacing the electronic control unit, the relevant
characteristics of the throttle operation have not been stored in the
electronic control unit.
•
After the electric control unit is powered off, the memory of the
electric control unit’s memory is lost.
•
After replacing the throttle assembly, you need to match the
throttle.
•
After replacing or disassembling the intake port, the controlling of
the idle speed by the coordination between the electronic control
unit and the throttle body is affected.
•
The intake volume, and the idle control behavior has changed while
staying at the same throttle opening position, although the idle
throttle potentiometer behavior hasn’t changed.

headlight system can decide whether to automatically turn on the
headlights based on the ambient light intensity, monitor the vehicle’s
driving speed, body posture, etc., and adjust the headlight lighting
angle.
2.13 Gearbox Matching (GEARBOX)
This function can complete the self-learning of the gearbox and
improve the shift quality, when the gearbox is disassembled or
repaired which may cause shifting delay or impact.

information detection.
2.23 Language Change
This function is used to change system language of vehicle center
console.
2.24 NOx Sensor Reset
NOx sensor is a sensor used to detect the content of nitrogen oxides
(NOx) in engine exhaust. If the NOx fault is re-initialized and the NOx
catalytic converter is replaced, it is necessary to reset the catalytic
converter learned value stored in the engine ECU.
