step 1: Detect Vehicle Protocol (auto function):
Once the Vehicle Setup Wizard begins it will au-
tomatically detect the vehicles communication
protocol. The WatchDog will not be able to detect
vehicle protocol on some vehicles if the engine is
not running.
Special Note: If an error screen appears while the
WatchDog is detecting the communication pro-
tocol it means that the WatchDog is not installed
properly or the engine needs to be turned on. See
the appendix for further detail.
STEP 2: ENGINE Size:
Choose engine size or displacement in liters, refer
to vehicle owners manual or the engine informa-
tion sticker located near the top of the radiator
and fan.
Step 3: Choose curb weight of vehicle
The curb weight of a vehicle is usually posted on a
sticker on the inside of the drivers door jam. If the
curb weight cannot be found on the door jam, refer
to the vehicle owners manual or look for the curb
weight on the internet. The vehicle can also be
weighed on a vehicle scale.
The WatchDog is determining the
communication protocol used by
your vehicles ECM.
