Obtaining TIS Approval RHD

Certain programming functions performed with the scan tool are prohibited without TIS approval. TIS approval can be obtained by clicking on the Security Access icon on the TIS 2000 Application Selection Screen

Security Access is used in order to prevent unauthorised persons from programming certain security functions.
