LAUNCH X431 Tool: Perform DPF Reset on 2021 Sinotruk Howo

 If the DPF is completely clogged and requires replacement, the DPF value in the vehicle’s computer must be reset after the new filter is installed. You can use the LAUNCH X431 truck diagnostic tool to perform the DPF reset function, allowing the vehicle’s computer to adapt to the new DPF filter.

Supported Equipment: Any X431 PRO series, X431 PRO3 series, X431 PRO5, and X431 PAD series with truck diagnostic capabilities supports this function.

In this example, navigate through the menu as follows: [Heavy-duty Trucks] -> [Engine System] -> [BOSCH Identification] -> [BOSCH System Self-Identification], and select [SINOTRUK P1708 MD1CE100] after automatic identification is complete.

3) Select [Special Function] -> [DPF function] -> [DPF value reset].

4) Select the information and click [Continue].

5) Click [DPF value reset] to observe the vehicle status.

If the function executes successfully, a success notification like the following will appear:
