4. RKE & RF Monitor
Today's keyless remotes -- also known as key fobs -- make life easier.
But when your key fob stops working or starts to perform
sporadically, it will be particularly frustrating. Check your key fob to
make sure it is in top condition so it will work when you really need
it.
Since a key fob is attuned to a special frequency that is only detected
by the car for which it was issued, you will need to have your vehicle
to test the fob. Otherwise you will have to take it to a dealership or an
automotive locksmith to have them tested for the right frequency. But
with our TPMS tool, the key fob testing becomes easy and
convenient.
1)
Use the UP/DOWN scroll button and LEFT/RIGHT scroll
button to select RKE & RF Monitor from Main Menu (Figure
2.1), and press the Y button to confirm.
2)
Hold the key fob very close to the tool and press the function
buttons on key fob to test. If the button works and the key fob is
sending a signal, the tool will beep and the screen shows as
below. If the button does not work, the tool will do nothing. To
make sure each button is working properly, please follow the
process to test each button in turn.
Figure 4.1


The progress bar indicates the approximate power level of
the key fob.

The stronger the signal, the higher the beep tone.

The tool only tests 315MHz and 433MHz key fobs.
Press the N button to return to previous menu.
