10.1.TPA300Overview
The Bosch TPA 300 offers the versatility to work in conjunction with a Bosch scan
tool or as a stand-alone TPMS tool.
Stand-alonemode can be used to read, program and copy TPMS sensors, test RKE
(Remote Keyless Entry), save and retrieve jobs, and setup the tool.
Connecttoscantoolmode offers the ability to connect wirelessly to a Bosch scan
tool and to register the TPMS sensors’ IDs into the vehicle ECU.
10.2.ServiceProcedure
Section1-ReadSensorTest
Before servicing the tires/wheels, using the TPMS tool, trigger each of the vehicle’s
sensors to make sure they are working properly. Either use the standalone or the
connect to scan tool mode to select the make, model, and year of the vehicle.
10 Operating Instructions
Step1:Select the Make, Model,
Year of the vehicle.
Step2:Hold the tool facing the
tire ank near the valve.
Step3:Read all the sensors
starting from front left.
This will eliminate the liability associated with replacing previously damaged or defective
sensors. This procedure will not change the vehicle settings because the vehicle has yet
to be put into learn mode. This procedure quickly identies damaged or defective sensors,
because some vehicles do not report a damaged or defective sensor condition on the
instrument cluster for up to 20 minutes.
Note: With some vehicles, if the vehicle is in “learn mode” the vehicle will also conrm that the
TPM sensor has communicated to the ECU with a series of horn beeps.
Note: If the sensors do not trigger, please refer to the Troubleshooting section of this Guide.
For vehicles that require relearn procedure, see Section 2 on page 10.

Section2-RelearnTPMSSystems
After selecting the Make-Model-Year of the vehicle, the tool systematically displays
which relearn procedure is required for that particular vehicle: automatic, manual or
scan tool (OBDII) relearning procedure.
For manual and scan tool (OBDII) relearn procedures, follow the instructions
displayed on the tool screen. For vehicles with an automatic relearn procedure,
where the TPMS system is automatically reset when driving the car, it is
recommended to trigger each wheel sensor one nal time, to make sure they are in
correct working order.
A scan tool (OBDII) relearn requires the use of a Bosch scan tool paired with the
TPA 300. Follow the dedicated section in this user manual (pg 38) to do the pairing
procedure for the rst time. When the two tools are already paired, use the “Connect
to scan tool” mode from the TPA 300 main menu. All the other steps – except the
sensor reading – are made directly from the Bosch scan tool.
Step1: Put the TPA 300 into
“Connect to scan tool” mode.
Step2: Select the make, model, year of
the vehicle from the scan tool menu, using
Auto Id or Manual method. Then choose
maintenance test, or special tests, then
choose TPMS Registration.
Step3: With the TPA 300, read all
the sensors starting from front left.
Step4: Follow the scan tool on-screen
procedure to register the sensors ID’s into
the vehicle’s ECU.

If the tool has problems reading sensors, use the troubleshooting guide below.
Change

Trigger Sensor
The tool has not detected a sensor. Try again.
TPMSsensorreadingproblems–Troubleshootingguide
1) The vehicle hasnoTPMSsensors even if a metal stem is present. For example,
Schrader valves can look the same as TPMS valves.
▶ Check for the presence of TPMS sensors on the vehicle. Use the TPMS
tool to check the typeofTPMSvalve (direct or indirect) that is mounted
on the vehicle. Note: IndirectTPMS systems operate withoutsensors
mountedinthetires.
▶ If the vehicle was notoriginallyttedwithTPMSsensors, the tool will
display “IndirectTPMS.”
2) The TPMSsensororECUmay be damaged or defective.
▶ Check all these elements separately in order to eliminate the possible
problem.
3) The TPMS sensor only responds to a certain frequency.
▶ Check the communication frequency of the vehicle’s TPMS sensors. This
is generally 433 MHz for Europe and 315 MHz for the United States and
Japan. Ensure the vehicle is not a vehicle imported from another
region since it may be set to a different frequency.

4) The TPMSsensor mounted in the tire is not the correcttypeforthevehicle.
▶ Each vehicle model can be tted with a different style or type of TPMS
sensor. Ensure programmable sensors are the correct type to be
programmed for the make and model of vehicle.
5) Your TPMS tool may require a software update.
▶ If the vehicle is not be listed in the TPMS tool, simply update your device
using the TPMS Tool PC software. Refer to the dedicated section on page
47 of this user manual for this.
6) The TPMS tool is damaged or defective.
▶ If the TPMS tool is damaged or defective, contact Bosch Technical
Support at 1-855-267-2483 or contact your local distributor.
