When using the PRO Series tool, it is important to verify the Model Year you are working on to ensure that you are looking
for the proper sensor and are using the proper vehicle COMs when necessary.
By using the vehicle’s VIN instead of the manufacture date, you can accurately determine that vehicle’s Model Year. Refer
to that vehicle’s VIN and locate the 10
th
digit from the left. Use the 10
th
digit to reference the chart below to determine
the correct Model Year. The VIN is most commonly located at the base of the windshield on the driver’s side, or on the
tire placard in the driver’s-side door jamb as per the diagram below.
