Service Interval Reset Tool
 

I've recently serviced my 2005 CDTi but I have lost the reset tool I got from eze for a previous car which was essentially a couple of bits of bent wire set in a lump of resin, but it worked fine
So I decided to treat myself to an OBD2 gadget from Ebay (from China). I tried it. when plugged in the lights flash, then all three remain on, I switched on the ignition & pressed the button but the (-1120) service interval didn't reset. Once pressed the other two of the lights go out then the three lights flash in sequence indicating that the reset is successful.

Any ideas? am I doing something wrong or should I search for some paperclips?

You sometimes have to repeat the process for some reason with these Chinese tools.

Must have tried it about 10 times this afternoon, didn't budge

Search for Phil-T4's free 'IPK Changer' software download. It's on the forum somewhere. All you need is a cheap diagnostics lead (eBay) and you can do the service screen reset as well as various other mind-boggling things. You can also run the TOAF program with the same lead.

I bought the Gunson one and it wouldn't reset until below a certain number of miles was showing. Don't know why? :shrug:

I don't think you can reset it above 1000 miles

These are the instructions I downloaded from a ebay site that sells the re-set boxes .....

Read the last comment, I've had to do this most times to get a successful re-set.



How to use:

²Plug the Device into the OBD2 socket of the car.

²All LED`s will blink and then stay on.

²Turn ignition key to enable the board electronics but don`t start the engine.

²Press the button for the operation you want to perform for 1 second.

²The LED of the chosen operation will light and the other LED`s will be off.

²LED`s will perform a light chain which means the reset is done.

²Sometimes it is necessary to do an inspection reset before an oil reset.

I re-set mine when its showing about 6,000 miles ........

Mine is past the service point, now showing minus 1200miles.

I did a mates 75 that was minus 11000 odd and it reset OK.
