How to Reset Your Torque Pro OBD2 Scanner

Resetting Torque Pro is a straightforward process. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

Understanding the Different Reset Options

Clearing Fault Codes: This will erase any stored DTCs. It’s important to note that simply clearing the codes doesn’t fix the underlying problem.
Clearing Learned Values: Your car’s ECU (Engine Control Unit) continuously learns and adapts to your driving style and environmental conditions. Resetting the learned values can be helpful after repairs or modifications to ensure the ECU relearns correctly.
Resetting Application Data: This is a complete reset of the Torque Pro app. It will delete all data, including your vehicle profiles, settings, logs, and customizations.

Important Considerations

Consult your vehicle’s repair manual: Before resetting any ECU settings or clearing fault codes, it’s always a good idea to consult your vehicle’s repair manual or seek advice from a qualified mechanic.
Back up your data: If you’re performing a complete application data reset, consider backing up any important logs or settings you might want to keep.
