Understanding the Error

The system is expecting a VT02-series TPMS device to be connected via USB, but it's not detecting one. This often happens when the software is set to communicate through VT02 hardware, but the adapter isn't recognized, or the settings aren't configured correctly.


Step-by-Step Solution

1. Log in to Your Xhorse Account

Ensure you're signed in to your Xhorse account through the diagnostic tool to access all features and settings.


2. Select the Correct TPMS Device

Navigate through the menu:

Vehicle Diagnostic → TPMS → More Functions → Equipment Configuration → USB Connection (connect using VT02 series devices)

Why This Works

This adjustment tells the VVDI Key Tool Plus to use the connected VT02-compatible TPMS adapter for communication, resolving the mismatch between the software configuration and the hardware in use.


Final Tips

Always keep your diagnostic tool and software updated.

Ensure USB cables and adapters are firmly connected.

Reboot the tool if the issue persists after configuration changes.


By following these steps, you'll be back to performing quick and accurate TPMS services in no time.
